A long, expensive boat ride is what I was trying to avoid! I've read the off-shore trips can be very spotty down there, which is why I made it clear to our guide that I wanted to fish the river only. Though his gear wasn't best suited for casting plugs, he was super knowledgeable, knew his spots, and was extremely cordial and helpful. My only regret is not starting the trip at 6am (we started at 7am). By the time we got into the river mouth, we caught the tail end of the topwater bite before it was just too damn hot lol.
@Birdman, we stayed at Riu Negril! Phenomenal place!
