Head out of San Jose del Cabo with 'Captain Pollo Sportfishing' and experience some of the greatest fishing in all of Los Cabos! Big fish are the name of the game here and you'll reel in monsters both inshore and offshore with Captain Jesús Morales Barrera. You're in safe hands with this local pro whose family has been fishing these waters for generations.

Your vessel for the day is a 29' California sportfishing boat, lovingly restored in 2014. She's the ideal choice for 6 anglers who want to be both comfortable and efficient. She's got ample seating space on both decks, a private toilet, and 2 fighting chairs you'll want to make use of for sealing the deal with big game fish.

Whether you're inshore or offshore, there are massive fish on offer. Head into the deep if it's delicious Yellowfin Tuna or Mahi Mahi you're after. You'll also face off with a variety of Marlin and fun-to-catch Wahoo. The inshore fishing is just as exciting and you're positioned to reel in massive Roosterfish, as well as tasty Cubera Snapper and Triggerfish.

There's a complete range of quality rods, reels, and tackle for you to troll, spin, and bottom fish with on board. Capt. Jesus can also accommodate fly fishing but you'll have to bring your own gear. Let him know in advance if you'd like him to bring along snorkeling equipment for your entire party.

The crew works hard to keep you on top of the big fish and is happy to clean and fillet anything you choose to keep. If you're happy with their service, tipping is customary.

Great day out
Half Day Trip (AM) on July 30, 20262 adults

We had Lupe as our captian amd Lalo as our deck hand. They were great!! We caught a ton of bonita and a huge snapper we are still eating. Tried for marlin and dorado, but they weren't biting anywhere. Every cptain was complaining on the radio that it was all sharks. Not at our spot...The boat is not a modern boat, so don't expect that...but if you want to catch fish, use these guys!

Reported catch:
Cubera Snapper

Great Experience
Half Day Trip (AM) on December 20, 20253 adults

We had an amazing day fishing with Lupe and Alejandro. They put us on fish immediately. We caught 2 large Mahi, 7 yellow tail tuna and 2 bonito. Lupe and Alejandro are clearly professionals and worked hard the entire trip to make sure we had an amazing experience. We have taken many fishing charters and would definitively say that Captain Pollo and his team are among the very best.

Captain Jesús Morales Barrera has been fishing since he was 6 years old. Since 2009, he's been casting his lines every single day! He comes from a long line of fisherman so fishing is in his blood. When he's not out on the water with customers he hits the sea with his family. The best part of his job is taking care of his clients and making sure they have a memorable day in San Jose del Cabo!
