Black Snapper II is a modified Ocean Master, 26-foot center console. It is a smooth riding, fast boat ideal for both inshore and offshore fishing. We have a live bait well and tuna tubes. All new rods and reels March 2025! Black Snapper II is certified for 40 nm offshore, yet small enough to fish the nooks and crannies along the shore, too. All billfish are catch and release. Other fish, such as snapper, tuna and dorado will be filleted for you and bagged up to take with you. Join us for an excellent day of fishing out of Herradura Bay!
