Fernando Noyola has been part of the Pisces family for over 18 years and is widely recognized in the fleet and in Cabo. He began fishing professionally with us when he was just 18 years old. He was a mate onboard our 28’ and 31’ vessels before becoming a captain on 28’ ANDREA. Fernando is highly experienced in Cabo fishing and is proficient at targeting all species of marlin. He also enjoys fishing for large yellowfin tuna and has made it to the scales repeatedly over the years with Pisces at the WON Tuna Jackpot Tournament. Fernando is quick on his feet, has excellent eyes on the water, and is uniquely skilled at casting to marlin or swordfish on the surface. In his free time Fernando enjoys shore-fishing, surfing, and spending time with his family.
