Introduction: Why Loreto is the Ultimate Angler’s Escape
Imagine a place where the sea meets the sky in a breathtaking panorama of blues, where dolphins dance in the waves, and the tug on your line could be a trophy dorado, a hard-fighting roosterfish, or a massive yellowtail. Welcome to Loreto, Baja California Sur—a paradise for sportfishing enthusiasts. But not all fishing trips are created equal.
Reel Time Fishing, owned and operated by veteran angler Toby Wyatt, is not your run-of-the-mill fishing charter. With a legacy of organizing unforgettable excursions in the Pacific Northwest for species like Steelhead, Salmon, Sturgeon, Smallmouth Bass, Walleye, and Kokanee, Reel Time Fishing now offers Loreto fishing packages that bring their premium fishing experience to one of Mexico’s most scenic coastal towns.
This article explores what makes these packages so unique, what to expect on your trip, and why Loreto should be at the top of your angling bucket list.
Loreto: A Hidden Gem in the Sea of Cortez
The small town of Loreto is often overshadowed by its more commercial neighbors like Cabo San Lucas. But for those in the know, Loreto offers something Cabo can’t: serenity, authenticity, and unspoiled marine biodiversity.
Nestled along the coast of the Sea of Cortez—often called "The Aquarium of the World" by Jacques Cousteau—Loreto is a haven for anglers seeking variety and challenge. The surrounding waters teem with game fish including:
Dorado (mahi-mahi)
Roosterfish
Yellowtail amberjack
Snapper
Grouper
Marlin (seasonal)
This is not just a trip—it’s an adventure immersed in nature.

Every outing is led by seasoned captains who know the Sea of Cortez like the back of their hand. They understand not just where the fish are—but when they bite, what they bite, and how to land them.

3. Tailored Experiences
