Manetto 38 Trojan Express Overview

Larger charter fishing parties will appreciate the spaciousness and luxury of the thirty-eight foot Manetto. This late-model Trojan Express can accommodate up to ten patrons for your private off-shore excursion. Under the guidance of our highly-experienced captain and first mate, everyone on board will have the chance to reel in a trophy catch. The waters of this region offer a litany of game-fish species, including white marlin, blue marlin, sailfish, amberjack, wahoo, dorado, barracuda, kingfish, and varieties of snapper, grouper, sharks, and tuna. Some species can be caught throughout the year while others can only be found seasonally; no matter what time of year you visit Cancun, Playa Del Carmen, Cozumel, or Riviera Maya, you will enjoy the chance to fish for some exciting sport-fish.

Unlike some other tropical vacation destinations, this area is extremely close to the deeper channels where anglers can troll for pelagic fish. There is very little travel time on our charters so patrons will have the chance to fish almost immediately. We'll have all the lines set up and baited before we even leave the docks. The Manetto is equipped with outriggers and only the finest tourney-grade fishing gear.

One of the most sought after species that inhabit the local waters is known locally as dorado. In the Hawaiian Islands, this fish is known as mahi mahi. On the Atlantic coast of the United States, this brightly-hued sport-fish is known as dolphin fish. Sporting vibrant shimmering green, blue and gold scales, this fish always puts up a great struggle after it is hooked. The males of this species, or bulls, can be recognized by the severely blunted skull. The largest of this species can reach weights of more than eighty pounds. Anglers can typically catch dolphins weighing over twenty-five pounds in the local waters.
