Hello and welcome to Our Boats! We have great fishing year round here in Puerto Vallarta.
We have several charter options to choose from, I’m sure we have one that best fits your needs:
The boats below with the Master Baiters™ seal are company boats. these boats come with guarantees on full priced trips of durations of 8 hours or longer, so if you or your party don´t catch at least one game fish Master Baiter´s will refund 30% of the charter cost. That means Master Baiter´s™ puts its reputation on the line every day. If you by some chance come in with an empty fish box (no fish), we only collect the cost of operation. But one more time, this is on full priced trips of durations of 8 hours or longer!
Our motivations are in line with yours. For that reason, we have a deeper commitment to having professional equipment, fresh line and smooth Drags. Our Captains and Crews speak English so the only way you´ll have a communication problem is if you start speaking Espanol!
We put 10 to 15 baits on the boat, depending on the trip duration. You have the option of buying more. If it looks like extra live bait is needed, we´ll let you know this before you go out. Nothing worse than running out of live bait when it’s the only thing working that day.
Even if you´re not a professional, we´ll treat you like you are and look out for the things you would never know you need.
As far as Tackle and Equipment goes, you won’t find any better than my boats are equipped with. No worries there……
These are the correct and updated prices. My weekly Blog / News Report / Fishing Report is at my blog: www.MasterBaiters.wordpress.com. All my reports and inside information on conditions, Captains and Fish coming in are located here!

Other interesting Stuff…
BOAT TOURS
We also offer tour options with our boats. If you would like to tour the bay in a private boat and do some snorkeling, fishing, and eat a beautiful lunch on the beach in Sayulita or Yelpa, we do that also. If you have a special request, we´ll do everything to fulfill it. Just let us know what you have in mind. Private sunset cruises are also available.
TOURNAMENTS
Those interested in any of the Master Baiters™ boats for tournaments along with captains, contact us via email or call for a price quote. You´ll find we´re reasonably priced and my crews live for tournaments. They´ll hit the fishing grounds ready for action.
All boats are Tournament Ready Every Day with world class, personable captains and crews. You´ll never get off a Master Baiters™ boat and say my crews didn´t work hard enough or change color often enough!
YACHTS
I have private Yachts for rent if you have would desire a small get-together out in the bay. Prices vary depending on size of vessel, hours / days needed, level of luxury and seasonal demand. New Year’s Eve on a yacht in the Bay of Banderas is a spectacular evening.
Prices start at $450 usd per hour up to $25,000 per day for a 140 ft private yacht….
TAXIDERMY
For those of you interested in mounting your catch, we also offer Taxidermy service with The World’s largest marine taxidermist: Gray taxidermy! It will be shipped directly to your home or office. If you decide to mount your fish, I can save you money thru my shop from the Charter boat price. So talk to me, not the guys on the boats, I’ll tell you how it works…
LAND TOURS
If you’re interested in experiencing a tour while here in Puerto Vallarta you can swim with the Dolphins, take a Canopy tour, snorkeling, scuba diving, Whale watching, Booze Cruises, Sunset Cruises (group or private), Dune Buggies, Tequila Tours, Adventure tours, Cooking, Eco-Tours, horse back riding, Bass fishing, and any tour available in Puerto Vallarta you can book through us!And we have no time-share affiliations or presentation requirements!
DEPOSITS AND PAYMENTS
To reserve your spot today, we require a 50% deposit. You can do this by E-Mail or call me at my shop phone: 011 52 322 209 11 28 or on my cell phone direct at: 011-52-1-322-779-7571 24 Hrs a day and get me directly! We can’t take a credit card at this time. So sending a check is a much better option… Sent via DHL next day mail.
We suggest, and it works best, that you send your deposit via Western Union to Puerto Vallarta, in the name of Stanley Gabruk (must be exact). Then send me the ten digit code via e-mail with the name as it appears of the person who physically sends the money. Then I can pick it up 24 hrs after sent…. Better than DHL or FedEx, etc. This way works, the others…. Who knows?
You can also do wire transfers to me, just ask and I’ll forward you the form for this.
Balances are due on or before departure the morning of any Charter and must be paid in Cash, either in Pesos or Dollars. We use 11.0 pesos to US Dollar as a quick easy conversion. Credit cards can not be taken at this time. We can also accept personal checks and Travelers checks as payment for your convenience.

And finally, I write a weekly fishing report located on my web page (www.masterbaiters.com.mx) or you can read it at www.vallartatribune.com so you can keep up with the fishing here in Puerto Vallarta. I’m finding it’s fairly well known around the world now. Kinda surprising, but cool. So check it out and don’t be afraid to contact me with any questions you may have.
