I fished with pesca maya in feb. The first day was under questionable conditions and the second day was cancelled.I have fished with the several times and planned on being back so I told them to make a note they owed me a day of fishing that had already been paid for. I decided to go to Roatan this Feb and asked for a refund in Oct and was told by Sandra this would be no problem. It is now almost feb. and still no refund. There have been at least 10 emails and I am getting tired of the excuses. The secretary sent the check, the check got lost, the manager didnt tell the secretary, we'le send another check, we'le credit your bank card. I'm tired of all the runaround. For future fisherman I would suggest a small deposit and only pay on arrival, never pay in advance. I actually feel sorry for the guides. I have fished with them 10 times. I tip $20 per rod because they set everything up. Leaders, shock tippet, wire leader, etc. I usually bring 6 rods and tip at least 50 depending on the day. This is right out of the guides pocket. If they want to keep a repeat clientele I would suggest taking care of the people who kept them in business. There are several new guides and lodges in the area who I will be contacting in the future.

Highly recommended for the adventurous!! Lots of time spent in small boats, and out in the weather. Just got back from a week at Pesca Maya with my husband and two friends. We had the experience of a lifetime! Our ecotour with guide Felipe included turtle and dolphin encounters, fabulous birding and a wonderful snorkel. Fly fishing was top-notch. All the head guides are exceptional, and assistant guides were hard-working and eager to please--all the guides are knowledgeable, and fun! Henry, Luis and Manuel put us on fish everyday--Henry gave me my first shot at a grand slam--he did his job--I didn't do mine--but I had fun trying ;-) Can't say enough great things about the guides. The Lodge is immaculate, and the food was hearty and good. Staff are all hard-working and happy. Being able to fall asleep with the ocean waves and wind lulling us into a deep slumber after a day on the water was priceless. We hope to go back, for sure.

Me and my friend had a great time fishing Ascension Bay with the help of Pesca Maya Fishing Lodge. Please visit my blog www.jonasvildmark.se for pics.

Me and my wife went to Pesca Maya in April and can't say enough great things about the experience. The location was beautiful and remote. The lodging was cool and comfortable. The food and service was impeccable. We want to thank Ricardo and the entire staff for taking such great care of us. My wife even enjoyed a message on the beach (thanks Rogelio) while I went fishing with a good friend who happened to be there at the same time. Most importantly the fishing was spectacular. Our guides were very skilled and put us in the right place all day. I swear these guys have superman eyes. We caught a lot of bones among other random species. I even had my shot at a Grand Slam turning the head of one permit and having shots at tarpon. We had the experience of a lifetime and hope to go back next year. We recommend this destination to anyone who will listen.
