Anyone have any good or bad experience with a charter here?

I have been there, played golf didn't fish.

Don't know if this was a bad experience but it was quite unnerving.  The Federales have a rod block at the crossroads of the Cancun and Cozumel roads, I was pulled over both body and car searched.  They didn't speak English, luckily I made my tee time.  On the way back the Federales pulled me over again while I was getting gas.  I soiled my undies.  I once got pulled over in Cabo for not wearing my seat belt.

 

Make a point to try and see Xcaret while at Playa de Carmen, it's very close.

Went to Playa Del Carmen and went deep sea "fishing". I would have called it something else considering we had 6ft swells and the only person on the boat not getting sick was the captain. Oh and it was a 4 hour trip, no turning back, and we caught no fish by the end of it. The highlight was pulling into the marina after the 4 hours. I wouldn't hesitate to go back on a calm day, but in Playa Del Carmen there are rarely calm days on the water. Nothing against the charter though. 

Pm what charter it was. I have narrowed my list to two. Thanks
