Fly Fishing Tabasco

Fresh and saltSeason not confirmedFrontera (Centla) — Grijalva and Usumacinta rivers, lagoons and wetlands on the Gulf of Mexico

Guide Paco Marroquín and his son run this tarpon programme from Frontera (Centla) in Tabasco, close to where the Grijalva and Usumacinta rivers meet the Gulf of Mexico. There is no lodge: guests stay at the small Hotel Mar Mor in town. Days are spent on the rivers, lagoons and wetlands in 21-foot pangas, two anglers to a guide, fly fishing mostly for juvenile tarpon and snook.
