It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience for many fishermen. One of our favorite fishing spot around Puerto Vallarta. One of the tricks we use here is fishing live 10-pound chorros. Either up top on a long line or short downrigger. This type of fishing produces large tuna,marlin, and big snappers. Imagine a snapper eating a 10-pound bait.
