 Rocky Point offers some great fishing from shore. Try cut squid on the bottom or cast spoon type lures that imitate bait fish around rocky areas for Sand Bass, Pargo, Porgy and Triggerfish. Cast larger sizes for Grouper. (the upper left photo shows a large Grouper) Some local favorite spoons include: Acme Lures Slim Jim, Need-L-Eel, Kastmaster, and the Luhr Jensen Krocodile. Pompano, Corvina and Halibut hang out in sandy areas and around reefs, use smaller size spoons or squid. Good places to fish from shore include openings to estuaries and ports. You do not need a permit to fish from shore. |

 For more serious fisherman charter boats with seasoned skippers and friendly crews are available. Half day trips fish between 3 and 6 miles out. Full day trips venture into deeper water and sometimes offer a better chance at larger fish such as this nice Pinta (above middle photo). On a full day trip you might jig spoons or bottom fish in 100 plus feet of water. Spring sport fishing may yield Grouper, Snapper and Bass. Dolphin Fish and Skipjack show up in the summer months starting in June. Other fish including Triggerfish and Sharks are caught throughout the year. |
 The tides play a major role in fishing in Rocky Point. The best fishing from shore or close to shore is when the tide is either going in or going out and when the high and low tides fluctuate the most. You can view tide charts for the Rocky Point / Puerto Penasco area with this link tide charts. Tide charts provided by Tide Lines. |
