master of the day what is that you want to do with your
fish. You have several options: You can send some to the
kitchen to be prepare for you that night; you can choose to
have us take care of it, to clean, bag, and freeze your fish
or smoke it for you; or you can have sent to town to have it

When you get on your fishing boat, your captain will
introduce himself and his deckhand. He'll ask what would
be your target specie, once he knows this he will
suggest the type of bait that you should get.
Bait is bought from the pangueros direct and you must
have cash for their services, normally you will be
taking about $20-$30 dollars worth. It could be frozen
bait (ballyhoo), large live bait (mackerel, caballito,
little jacks or mullet), or sardines.

We
Support a Catch-and-Release Philosoph Hotel
Buena Vista Beach Resort believes strongly in conserving
our natural resources, and supports the Worldwide Billfish
Foundation and its catch-and-release program. In fact,
75% of our billfish are released to fight another day
(more than 1300 this past year alone). Hotel Buena Vista
anglers who release fish receive a special patch, signifying
their commitment to the program.
|
In
addition, most of Hotel Buena Vista's captains are participating
in the Captains 25+ Release Team awards program, sponsored by
the Billfish Foundation and Penn Fishing Tackle. As part of the
Billfish Foundation's worldwide effort to promote the catch-and-release
concept, the Captains 25+ Release Team provides special recognition
to captains who release more than 25 billfish annually.
