Hey all
I'm going to be down in Coz May 15-22 with my girl and will be diving with Christi of BlueXTsea. I'm very excited about this because of all the stellar reviews her outfit has gotten on this board. I am thinking of deviating from that for one day however....
On to the point of this post... I have read that Papa Hogs does a trip to the mainland which is half diving and half deep sea fishing. Apparently it goes to 2 of the better sites off Playa Del Carmen. One has a lot of Turtles, the other I think is "Tarpon Alley" which is known for it's (you guessed it)... Tarpon. During your surface intervals you cruise around fishing.
Anyone interested in this? I was thinking of trying to reserve a boat on Thursday May 20th. Price is $100 a piece. If I can't get anybody from the forum to bite I guess I'll take my chances that people from Papa Hogs will want to do it.
Anyone done this trip? Is it worth it? Any other operators do this trip as well?
Please let me know asap as I would like to give Christi a set schedule.
Thanks
Jeff
