Cabo Fishing Report – 80-Pound Yellowfin Tuna and Dorado August 29, 2026 1 Yellowfin Tuna and 1 Dorado During a Six-Hour Cabo Fishing Charter A family from White Plains, New York enjoyed a productive late-August fishing trip aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star with Captain Chewy. Edit, Julio, Isabella and Kennedy spent six hours fishing the warm waters around Cabo San Lucas and finished the charter with two quality pelagic fish. The standout catch was an approximately 80-pound yellowfin tuna. A 20-pound dorado added a second species and brought the estimated combined weight of the two fish to approximately 100 pounds. Cabo Fishing Charter Statistics Charter Detail Recorded Information Charter Detail Recorded Information Catch 1 Tuna, 1 Dorado Total Game Fish 2 Boat Blue Star – 32' Luhrs Captain Chewy Guests 4 Anglers Home City White Plains, NY Charter Length 6 Hours Tuna Weight Approx. 80 lbs Water Temperature Approx. 88°F Dorado Weight Approx. 20 lbs Wind Approx. 9–12 mph Combined Weight Approx. 100 lbs Air Temperature Approx. 84°F → Upper 80s Weather Clouds and Sunshine An 80-Pound Yellowfin Tuna Becomes the Main Event The yellowfin tuna was the defining fish of this Cabo charter. At approximately 80 pounds, this was a substantial tuna requiring much more than a quick fight. Yellowfin are powerful swimmers built for sustained speed and endurance. Larger fish can make hard initial runs before settling into the deeper stages of the battle. Captain Chewy and the crew helped the anglers maintain pressure while keeping the boat positioned during the fight. Successfully bringing the tuna aboard turned one offshore opportunity into the biggest catch of the family's morning. August 29 Catch Results Species Approx. Weight Result Yellowfin Tuna 80 lbs Caught Dorado 20 lbs Caught Combined Catch 100 lbs 2 Game Fish The numbers show why the tuna became the centerpiece of the trip, but the dorado provided valuable species variety during a relatively compact six-hour fishing window. Dorado Adds Color and Speed to the Cabo Fishing Day The approximately 20-pound dorado created a very different offshore experience. Dorado are known for rapid acceleration, aggressive strikes and brilliant coloration. Once hooked, they can produce quick runs and aerial action that contrast sharply with the sustained strength of a large yellowfin tuna. Catching both species allowed the family to experience two distinct styles of Cabo fishing during the same morning. Warm August Conditions Around Cabo Water temperature was approximately 88°F, with air temperature beginning around 84°F and climbing into the upper 80s. Winds were approximately 9–12 mph under a mixture of clouds and sunshine. Captain Chewy could continually watch the surrounding water for signs that might reveal productive areas, including: Concentrations of baitfish Working birds Current seams Surface disturbances Floating structure or debris These observations are particularly valuable during a six-hour charter because making productive use of the available fishing time matters. Cabo Fishing Conditions Grid Ocean Detail Recorded Condition Weather Detail Recorded Condition Water Approx. 88°F Starting Air Approx. 84°F Sea Conditions Moderate Surface Later Air Upper 80s Wind Approx. 9–12 mph Sky Clouds / Sunshine Charter 6 Hours Game Fish 2 Tuna and Dorado Deliver a Memorable Cabo Fishing Trip For Edit, Julio, Isabella and Kennedy, the August 29 charter ultimately came down to two significant offshore opportunities that produced two quality fish. The 80-pound yellowfin delivered the strength and endurance associated with larger tuna, while the 20-pound dorado brought speed, color and a completely different fight. Approximately 100 pounds of combined fish during a six-hour charter made this a productive family outing aboard Blue Star and another example of the species variety available during late-summer fishing in Cabo San Lucas.

Cabo Fishing Report – Marlin and Dorado Action in Cabo San Lucas August 15, 2026 Charter Length: 8 Hours | Boat: Blue Star – 32' Luhrs 3 Marlin Released and 1 Small Dorado Released Three experienced anglers from Dallas, Texas enjoyed an active eight-hour offshore fishing charter aboard Blue Star with Captain Chewy. Chris, Logan and Dakota finished the day with four game fish encounters: three marlin and one small dorado, with all four fish successfully released. The trip demonstrated the quality of Cabo's warm-water billfish action during August. With approximately 89.6°F water offshore, Captain Chewy continually worked changing conditions rather than depending on one location or one opportunity. Cabo Fishing Charter Statistics Charter Detail Recorded Information Charter Detail Recorded Information Catch 3 Marlin, 1 Dorado Total Game Fish 4 Boat Blue Star – 32' Luhrs Captain Chewy Guests Chris, Logan, Dakota Home City Dallas, Texas Charter Length 8 Hours Experience Experienced Anglers Marlin 3 Released Dorado 1 Released Water Temperature Approx. 89.6°F Wind Light to Moderate Weather Hot and Humid Moon Waxing Crescent – 12.4% Three Marlin Make It a Strong Cabo Billfish Day One marlin can become the defining moment of an offshore fishing trip. This charter produced three separate marlin encounters. Each fish gave the anglers another opportunity to experience the combination of strength, speed and surface action that makes marlin such an important part of Cabo sportfishing. Captain Chewy continually evaluated the offshore environment while searching for productive water. Current direction, bait movement, water color and bird activity can all provide clues about where predators may be feeding. The strategy ultimately produced three marlin, and all three were successfully released. August 15 Fishing Results Species Number Charter Result Marlin 3 All Released Dorado 1 Released Total Game Fish 4 100% Released The small dorado added a second species to the day's action. Because of its size, it was also released, allowing the fish to continue growing in Cabo's offshore ecosystem. Dorado Adds Another Species to the Charter Dorado offer a very different fight from marlin. They are known for rapid acceleration, aggressive strikes, brilliant coloration and unpredictable movements near the surface. Finding one during a day already producing multiple marlin gave the anglers another example of the variety available in Cabo's warm August water. The decision to release the small dorado meant every game fish encountered during the charter returned to the water. Extremely Warm August Water Water temperature was approximately 89.6°F. Air temperatures were in the mid-to-upper 80s during the morning before becoming hotter later in the day. Conditions were hot and humid with periods of sunshine and tropical cloud cover. During an eight-hour charter, the crew has time to search for changing offshore indicators, including: Bait concentrations Working birds Current boundaries Water-color changes Surface activity Having additional fishing time can become particularly useful when marlin are scattered or when the crew needs to reposition as conditions develop.

Three marlin provided three separate billfish battles, while the small dorado added another warm-water species to the experience. Most importantly, every fish was successfully released. With four game fish, two species and eight hours aboard the 32-foot Blue Star, the final result was a memorable late-summer fishing day in Cabo San Lucas: three marlin released and one dorado released.

Cabo Fishing Report – August 7, 2026 – Tuna and Dorado 1 Large Tuna and 1 Dorado Caught Charter Date: August 7, 2026 Charter Length: 6 Hours Boat: 32' Luhrs Blue Star Captain: Chewy Catch: 1 Large Tuna and 1 Dorado August 7 produced a quality two-species fishing day for Payam, Daniel, Gavin and Grace aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star. The family headed out with Captain Chewy for a six-hour private charter and returned with two very different offshore game fish — one large tuna and one dorado. Rather than being a numbers-driven day, this charter was highlighted by variety. The tuna provided the heavier, more powerful battle, while the dorado added the speed and brilliant coloration associated with one of Cabo's most recognizable offshore species. Searching Productive Water While Fishing Offshore From Cabo A six-hour charter provides a useful balance between fishing time and offshore range. Captain Chewy was able to search beyond the immediate marina area while still keeping the trip comfortable for a family that included 10-year-old Daniel. Conditions were warm during the August charter. The original fishing record reported water temperatures around 83–85°F, air temperatures around 90–92°F and relatively light winds. Finding productive water remained the objective. When the large tuna entered the action, the family experienced the strength that makes tuna such a popular offshore target. These fish can remain deep during a fight, using their power and endurance against the angler. The dorado offered a completely different encounter. Dorado are fast, energetic game fish recognized immediately by their bright coloration. Catching one on the same charter as a quality tuna gave the group two contrasting examples of Cabo's summer fishery. August 7 Cabo Charter Results Charter Detail Result Boat 32' Luhrs Blue Star Captain Chewy Charter Length 6 Hours Anglers Payam, Daniel, Gavin and Grace Tuna Caught 1 Dorado Caught 1 Total Game Fish 2 Trip Type Private Offshore Charter Fishing Result Snapshot Species Caught Tuna 1 Dorado 1 Total 2 A Family Fishing Experience in Cabo Having four family members aboard meant both catches became shared experiences. For Daniel, at 10 years old, the charter offered an opportunity to see firsthand how an offshore fishing trip develops. There can be periods of searching followed by sudden action when a game fish finds the presentation. That unpredictability is part of offshore fishing. Once a fish is hooked, the atmosphere aboard the boat changes immediately. The crew manages the equipment and fishing area while the angler concentrates on the fight and everyone else gets to watch the encounter develop. On August 7, the family experienced that process with two different species. Tuna and Dorado Complete a Six-Hour Cabo Charter By the end of the six-hour trip, Payam, Daniel, Gavin and Grace had put together a simple but memorable fishing result. One large tuna provided the heavyweight encounter. One dorado added another quality game fish to the day. The result demonstrated that a productive Cabo charter does not necessarily require a large number of fish. Two quality catches from different species can provide plenty of action and give visiting anglers a better appreciation for the variety available in the waters surrounding Cabo San Lucas. For this family, August 7 became a day built around warm summer conditions, six hours together on the Pacific and two distinctly different offshore catches.

The Sacramento group spent six hours offshore, with one large tuna becoming the defining catch of their family fishing experience. Searching for Tuna While Fishing Around Cabo The crew worked productive offshore water throughout the charter, maintaining the trolling presentation while looking for additional opportunities. Water temperature was reported around 78°F. Afternoon air temperatures reached approximately 90°F, with moderate winds creating active Pacific conditions. Finding offshore tuna requires attention to what is happening across the water rather than simply following a predetermined route. Crews may watch for concentrations of bait, birds, surface activity, current boundaries and other signs capable of revealing where feeding fish are moving. The search ultimately produced the opportunity the family wanted. A large tuna entered the action.

Approx. 78°F Air Temp. Approx. 90°F Anglers 5 Home City Sacramento Catch Snapshot Species Caught Tuna 1 Total Game Fish 1 A Large Tuna Creates the Cabo Fishing Highlight Once hooked, tuna provide a very different battle from many surface-oriented game fish. Their strength is often directed downward, producing sustained runs and periods of heavy pressure below the boat. Maintaining consistent pressure becomes important as the fight develops. For a mixed family group, a quality tuna encounter also creates a team experience. While one angler handles the rod, everyone aboard can follow the fight as the captain and crew position the boat and manage the surrounding fishing equipment. For 14-year-old Lucas, the trip offered the opportunity to experience offshore fishing alongside his family. The large tuna ultimately became the fish everyone aboard would remember. One Quality Fish Defines a Six-Hour Charter Fishing success is not always best measured by the number of fish brought alongside. On July 30, the Blue Star charter produced one game fish, but it was a substantial tuna capable of turning a single hookup into the centerpiece of the entire six-hour experience. Jose, Holly, Alfred, Curtis and Lucas shared the offshore search, the anticipation of the strike and the battle that followed. Their day demonstrated how one quality tuna can transform a family charter into a memorable Pacific fishing experience.

Cabo Fishing Report – July 28, 2026 – Blue Marlin Released and Dorado Caught 1 Blue Marlin Released and 1 Dorado Caught Charter Date: July 28, 2026 | Charter Time: 8:00 AM Charter Length: 8 Hours | Boat: Blue Star – 32' Luhrs Captain: Chewy | Dredge: Used Anglers: Stephanie, Jon and Scott | Home City: Houston, Texas Blue Marlin: 1 Caught and Released | Dorado: 1 Caught Total Game Fish: 2 | Species Caught: Blue Marlin and Dorado July 28 delivered an impressive two-species offshore fishing experience for Stephanie, Jon and Scott aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star with Captain Chewy. The Houston group committed to an eight-hour charter, giving the crew substantial time to search productive offshore water. Their day produced two very different game fish: one colorful dorado and a powerful blue marlin that was successfully released. Eight Hours of Offshore Fishing Around Cabo An eight-hour charter gives the captain considerably more flexibility than a shorter morning trip. There is additional time to travel, search changing water conditions and remain with promising signs when game fish are farther from the marina. Captain Chewy and the crew incorporated the dredge into their offshore presentation. A dredge creates the appearance of a concentrated school of baitfish beneath the surface. Rather than being the hooked bait itself, it provides additional movement and visual attraction behind the boat, encouraging predatory fish to investigate the trolling spread. That offshore strategy produced opportunities with both dorado and blue marlin. July 28 Charter Details Charter Details Date July 28, 2026 Start 8:00 AM Length 8 Hours Boat Blue Star – 32' Luhrs Captain Chewy Dredge Used Blue Marlin 1 Released 1 Dorado 1 Total Game Fish 2 Anglers 3 Home City Houston Catch Snapshot Species Caught Released Blue Marlin 1 1 Dorado 1 — Total 2 1 Blue Marlin Creates the Cabo Fishing Highlight The blue marlin became the defining encounter of the charter. Once the fish entered the presentation and was hooked, the pace aboard Blue Star changed immediately. Captain Chewy maneuvered the boat while the crew managed the fishing equipment and worked with the anglers throughout the fight. Blue marlin combine exceptional power, speed and endurance. Their size and ability to make long runs can turn a single hookup into an extended battle requiring coordination between the angler, captain and crew. After the fight, the marlin was brought alongside and successfully released back into the Pacific. Dorado Adds a Second Offshore Species The group also caught a dorado, giving the charter a completely different type of game-fish encounter. Dorado are recognized for aggressive strikes, speed and spectacular green, gold and blue coloration. Compared with the heavy power of a blue marlin, dorado provide a lighter but highly energetic fight that adds variety to an offshore day. Catching both species during the same eight-hour charter gave Stephanie, Jon and Scott two distinctly different experiences. One provided the speed, color and action associated with dorado. The other delivered the strength and excitement of battling a blue marlin before completing a successful release. For the Houston group, July 28 became an eight-hour Pacific adventure highlighted by two game fish and one memorable billfish release.

Cabo Fishing Report – July 26, 2026 – Bull Dorado 1 Bull Dorado Caught Charter Date: July 26, 2026 | Charter Time: 8:00 AM Charter Length: 6 Hours | Boat: Blue Star – 32' Luhrs Captain: Chewy | Catch: 1 Bull Dorado Total Game Fish: 1 | Species Caught: Dorado Anglers: Westin, Madison and Brittany | Dredge: Used Charter Type: Private | Conditions: Changing Pressure, Slower Bite July 26 presented Captain Chewy and three anglers aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star with a challenging offshore fishing window. Westin, Madison and Brittany headed out on a six-hour private charter just before changing conditions resulted in a port closure. Fish activity was slower, but the crew stayed persistent and eventually put the group on one impressive bull dorado. Adapting to Changing Conditions While Fishing Around Cabo Offshore fishing conditions can change quickly. Current, bait movement, water temperature, wind and atmospheric pressure can all influence where game fish are located and how aggressively they feed. That made flexibility particularly important on July 26. Captain Chewy continued searching productive water and adjusting the approach rather than remaining committed to an area that was not producing. The Blue Sky Cabo dredge was also incorporated into the trolling presentation. A dredge is an underwater attraction device designed to create the appearance of a concentrated school of baitfish. Its movement and visual profile can help attract larger predatory fish toward the trolling spread. Despite the slower activity, persistence eventually produced the opportunity the group needed.

Dorado are among the most recognizable offshore game fish because of their vivid coloration, aggressive strikes and energetic fighting style. A bull dorado can make powerful runs and rapid changes in direction, transforming a slow fishing period into fast action within seconds. This fish did exactly that. After spending the charter adapting to difficult conditions, the crew's persistence was rewarded with a substantial dorado and a memorable battle for the anglers. Six Hours of Offshore Fishing on Blue Star The July 26 charter is also a good example of why offshore fishing cannot be judged solely by the number of fish caught. Some days provide multiple hookups in quick succession. Others require the captain and crew to search, adjust and work through changing conditions to create a single quality opportunity. This was the second type of day. Captain Chewy and the crew stayed with the program despite reduced fish activity, and Westin, Madison and Brittany were ultimately rewarded with a bull dorado. One quality game fish became the defining moment of six hours aboard Blue Star and demonstrated how quickly persistence can change an offshore fishing day.

Cabo Fishing Report – July 24, 2026 – Dorado and Bonita Dorado and Bonita Caught Charter Date: July 24, 2026 | Charter Time: 9:00 AM–3:00 PM Charter Length: 6 Hours | Boat: Blue Star – 32' Luhrs Captain: Chewy | Species Caught: Dorado and Bonita Catch Quantities: Not Documented | Dredge: Used Anglers: David, Taylor, Michelle, Andrew and Nolan | Home City: Chicago, Illinois Water Temperature: Approximately 82°F | Conditions: Light Winds, Comfortable Seas July 24 delivered a productive family fishing experience for David, Taylor, Michelle, Andrew and Nolan from Chicago aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star with Captain Chewy. Their six-hour private charter produced two different offshore species—dorado and bonita—while comfortable summer conditions provided an enjoyable setting for the group. Family Fishing Action Around Cabo Captain Chewy worked the available water while monitoring the conditions and looking for productive areas holding active fish. The Blue Sky Cabo dredge system was incorporated into the presentation. A dredge is an underwater attraction device designed to create the appearance of a concentrated school of baitfish beneath the surface. Its purpose is to add movement and visual attraction behind the boat and help draw predatory game fish toward the fishing spread. That approach helped the group connect with both dorado and bonita. July 24 Charter Details Charter Details Date July 24, 2026 Time 9:00 AM–3:00 PM Length 6 Hours Boat Blue Star – 32' Luhrs Captain Chewy Dredge Used Species Dorado, Bonita Quantities Not Documented Water Temp. Approx. 82°F Wind Light Anglers 5 Home City Chicago Catch Snapshot Species Result Dorado Caught Bonita Caught Exact quantities Not documented Two Species Add Variety to Cabo Fishing Dorado and bonita provide distinctly different offshore encounters. Dorado are known for their spectacular green, gold and blue coloration along with fast runs and energetic fights. A hooked dorado can change direction quickly and may produce exciting surface action. Bonita bring their own combination of speed and strength. Their streamlined bodies are built for fast movement through the water, making them energetic opponents on appropriately matched fishing equipment. Catching both species gave the Chicago group variety rather than a day centered on a single target. The original charter record confirms both species were caught but does not provide individual quantities. For that reason, no numerical catch total has been added to this report. Six Hours Aboard Blue Star Comfortable conditions helped make the July 24 outing particularly suitable for a family group. Water temperatures were around 82°F, winds remained light and the seas were comfortable with relatively small waves. Those conditions allowed Captain Chewy and the crew to concentrate on fishing while David, Taylor, Michelle, Andrew and Nolan experienced six hours together offshore. The combination of dorado, bonita, pleasant summer conditions and a family-oriented charter created a successful day without needing to exaggerate the catch. For this Chicago group, July 24 became a documented two-species fishing experience aboard Blue Star with Captain Chewy.

Cabo Fishing Report – 3 Marlin and 2 Skipjack Released Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charter and Tours 32 Foot Luhrs – Cabo Fishing Report December 19, 2023 Devin, William and Jessica traveled from the Birmingham, Alabama area and boarded the 32' Blue Star Luhrs for an eight-hour offshore charter from Cabo San Lucas. Their day produced steady variety with three marlin and two skipjack, and all five fish were successfully released. Rather than being defined by one encounter, this charter developed through multiple opportunities across a full eight-hour fishing window. Three separate marlin encounters ultimately made billfish the centerpiece of the day. Cabo Charter Details and Fishing Conditions Date: December 19, 2023 | Boat: 32' Blue Star Luhrs | Captain: Blue Star Crew Guests: 3 | Guest Home Area: Birmingham, Alabama | Charter Length: 8 Hours Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 2:00 PM | Catch: 3 Marlin, 2 Skipjack Marlin Released: 3 | Skipjack Released: 2 | Technique: Offshore Trolling Departure Dock: F Dock | Marina: IGY Marina | Location: Cabo San Lucas Air Temperature: ~68°F → 82°F | Water Temperature: ~73°F | Wind: ~9 mph Swell: ~2–4 ft | Moon: First Quarter | Moon Illumination: ~50% Three Marlin Build an Exceptional Cabo Fishing Day An eight-hour charter gives anglers something particularly valuable offshore: time. Blue Star departed F Dock at approximately 6:00 AM, allowing the crew to begin searching early and continue working well into the afternoon. The first marlin provided the initial breakthrough. Once the fish became involved with the trolling presentation, the crew transitioned quickly from searching to managing a billfish encounter. The captain positioned Blue Star while the angler worked the fish and the deck crew kept the fishing area organized. The encounter ended with the marlin successfully released. But with plenty of charter time remaining, the fishing continued. A second marlin eventually created another opportunity. Then came a third. Three marlin encounters turned what could have been a good morning into a memorable full-day experience. Multiple Releases Define This Cabo Charter Report Release fishing became one of the strongest themes of the day. All three marlin were returned to the Pacific after their encounters. The two skipjack caught during the charter were also released. That produced a simple final conservation record: 3 marlin caught and released 2 skipjack caught and released 5 fish caught and 5 fish released For Devin, William and Jessica, the day's success therefore wasn't measured by fish returning to the dock. It was measured by encounters experienced on the water. Eight Hours Expands This Offshore Fishing Report The difference between a shorter charter and an eight-hour trip becomes particularly noticeable when several billfish are encountered. Every marlin requires time. The strike develops, the fish must be fought, the captain manages the boat and the crew handles the fishing equipment. Once the release is completed, everything must be prepared again before the search resumes. Blue Star went through that cycle three separate times. The eight-hour window allowed the crew to keep fishing after the first marlin and again after the second. That persistence eventually produced the third billfish encounter. Birmingham Anglers Experience Cabo Fishing Variety With only three guests aboard the 32' Luhrs, Devin, William and Jessica had plenty of room to follow the action closely. The marlin provided the major offshore excitement, while the skipjack added two additional encounters during the day. Those skipjack were released in keeping with Blue Sky Cabo's fishing practices. The combination created a charter with two species but a very clear identity: this was fundamentally a marlin day. Three billfish during one eight-hour trip gave the Alabama group repeated opportunities to experience one of the primary species that makes Cabo San Lucas internationally recognized among offshore anglers. Five Releases Complete This Cabo Charter Report Blue Star returned toward Cabo San Lucas at approximately 2:00 PM after a full eight hours on the Pacific. The final numbers told a strong story. Three anglers had experienced three marlin encounters. Two skipjack added additional action. And every fish caught during the charter was released. For Devin, William and Jessica, December 19 became a day built around repeated offshore opportunities rather than a single defining strike. Three marlin released. Two skipjack released. Three guests from the Birmingham area. Eight hours aboard the 32' Blue Star Luhrs.

Cabo Fishing Report – 2 Marlin Released Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charter and Tours 32 Foot Luhrs – Cabo Fishing Report December 18, 2023 Robert and Susan, visiting from the Toledo, Ohio area, headed onto the Pacific aboard the 32' Blue Star Luhrs for a six-hour morning charter from Cabo San Lucas. Their December fishing day developed into a successful billfish trip with two marlin caught and both successfully released. With six hours available, Blue Star had enough time to leave F Dock early, search productive offshore water and work the trolling presentation for one of Cabo's signature game fish. Cabo Charter Details and Fishing Conditions Date: December 18, 2023 | Boat: 32' Blue Star Luhrs | Captain: Blue Star Crew Guests: 2 | Guest Home Area: Toledo, Ohio | Charter Length: 6 Hours Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 12:00 PM | Catch: 2 Marlin Marlin Released: 2 | Primary Species: Marlin | Technique: Offshore Trolling Departure Dock: F Dock | Marina: IGY Marina | Location: Cabo San Lucas Air Temperature: ~66°F → 81°F | Water Temperature: ~73°F | Wind: ~8 mph Swell: ~2–4 ft | Moon: Waxing Crescent | Moon Illumination: ~41% Two Marlin Highlight This Cabo Charter Report Blue Star departed Cabo San Lucas Marina at approximately 6:00 AM with Robert and Susan aboard. Morning departures allow the crew to begin searching as the day develops and fishing activity starts taking shape offshore. The trolling presentation went to work as Blue Star searched for signs of billfish. The first marlin turned that search into action. Once the fish committed, the captain positioned the 32' Luhrs while the crew managed the fishing equipment and helped the angler through the fight. Marlin can change direction quickly, stay deep or suddenly come toward the surface. Maintaining pressure while the captain maneuvers the boat requires coordination throughout the encounter. The first fish was successfully brought alongside and released back into the Pacific. Then Blue Star returned to fishing. Second Marlin Builds the Offshore Fishing Report One successful marlin encounter can define a charter, but Robert and Susan's morning was not finished. Blue Star continued working the offshore water after the first release. The fishing presentation was reset, the search resumed and eventually a second marlin created another opportunity. That second encounter gave the guests another complete billfish experience. The result was straightforward: 2 marlin caught 2 marlin successfully released 100% of the marlin returned to the Pacific Catching two marlin during a six-hour morning charter made billfish the clear focus of the December 18 trip. Six Hours Creates Productive Cabo Fishing Time A six-hour charter sits between a shorter introductory trip and a full eight- or ten-hour offshore day. That additional time can become particularly valuable after the first fish is caught. A marlin encounter consumes time as the angler fights the fish, the captain positions the boat and the crew manages the equipment. Once the release is completed, the trolling presentation must be reorganized before fishing resumes. Robert and Susan still had enough time after their first marlin to continue searching. That decision paid off with the second fish. Instead of returning with one successful release, Blue Star completed the morning with two. Toledo Guests Shape This Cabo Charter Report For two guests from the Toledo area, the 32' Blue Star Luhrs provided a comfortable platform for a focused morning of offshore fishing. A two-person charter also creates a very different experience from fishing with a large group. There is plenty of room aboard the boat, and when a marlin enters the spread, the guests can follow every part of the encounter closely. The morning developed around two important moments: the first marlin appearing in the spread and the second fish proving the initial encounter was not going to be the only billfish opportunity of the day. Two Successful Releases Complete the Fishing Report By approximately noon, Blue Star was returning toward Cabo San Lucas after six hours on the Pacific. Robert and Susan had experienced two marlin encounters and two successful releases. Both fish were returned to the ocean, making conservation an important part of the day's result. For a December morning aboard the 32' Luhrs, the final numbers told the story clearly. Two guests. Six hours. Two marlin caught. Two marlin successfully released.

A shorter charter requires efficient use of time because every run away from Cabo San Lucas eventually requires return travel. The morning produced both marlin and dorado action. Cabo Marlin Fishing Ends With a Release One marlin delivered the group's primary billfish encounter. A marlin fight requires cooperation between angler and crew while the boat is positioned and the remaining fishing spread is managed. The fish was successfully fought to the boat. It was then released back into the Pacific. Blue Sky Cabo Fishing and Tours releases marlin whenever a healthy release is possible. The group also caught one dorado. Known for speed, brilliant coloration and aerial fights, dorado provide a distinctly different offshore experience from battling a marlin. The two species gave Russ, Leisha, Austin and Abby variety during their five-hour morning. At 11:00 AM, the Blue Star returned to Cabo San Lucas with one dorado and one successfully released marlin recorded.

Cabo Fishing Report December 13, 2023 – Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charters December **hidden content** Marlin Released Glen and Dan from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada fished aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star for a six-hour private morning charter.

The charter included a dredge. Designed to resemble a concentrated school of bait moving beneath the surface, the dredge adds visual attraction to the fishing presentation. The crew still has to locate productive conditions and convert any opportunities that develop. Cabo Marlin Fishing Produces a Successful Release One marlin became the defining fish of the charter. When a marlin enters the fishing spread, the crew has to react quickly while the boat is positioned and the angler settles into the fight. Glen and Dan's opportunity was successfully converted. The marlin was fought to the boat and released back into the Pacific. Blue Sky Cabo Fishing and Tours releases marlin whenever a healthy release is possible. A six-hour charter also requires careful management of travel time. Every run away from Cabo San Lucas eventually requires time for the return. The objective isn't simply to travel farther offshore. It is to locate productive water within the available charter window. For Glen and Dan, one marlin provided the day's headline encounter. At noon, the Blue Star returned to Cabo San Lucas after six hours offshore with one marlin successfully released.

Cabo Fishing Report – 1 Marlin Released Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charter and Tours 32 Foot Luhrs – Cabo Fishing Report December 13, 2023 Glen and Dan traveled from the Edmonton, Alberta area and boarded the 32' Blue Star Luhrs for a six-hour morning charter from Cabo San Lucas. Their trip produced the encounter many visiting anglers come to Cabo hoping to experience: one marlin caught and successfully released. With only two guests aboard, this was a focused fishing day. The charter departed at 6:00 AM, providing an early start and six hours for the Blue Star crew to search offshore water, work the trolling presentation and capitalize when a billfish opportunity finally developed. Cabo Morning Charter and Fishing Conditions Date: December 13, 2023 | Boat: 32' Blue Star Luhrs | Captain: Blue Star Crew Guests: 2 | Guest Home Area: Edmonton, Alberta | Charter Length: 6 Hours Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 12:00 PM | Catch: 1 Marlin Marlin Released: 1 | Dredge: Included | Technique: Offshore Trolling Departure Dock: F Dock | Marina: IGY Marina | Location: Cabo San Lucas Air Temperature: ~68°F → 82°F | Water Temperature: ~73°F | Wind: Light to Moderate Swell: ~2–4 ft | Moon: New Moon | Moon Illumination: ~1% Dredge Presentation Shapes This Cabo Report This charter was built around creating one strong offshore opportunity. Blue Star carried a dredge presentation, adding another element to the trolling spread as the crew searched for marlin. A dredge is designed to create the appearance of concentrated bait moving behind the boat. Instead of relying on a single lure or bait to attract attention, the presentation adds movement and visual activity beneath the surface. For Glen and Dan, patience eventually paid off. A marlin entered the picture and transformed a morning of searching into a full billfish encounter. One Strike Defines the Fishing Report Marlin fishing doesn't always require multiple bites to create a memorable day. One committed fish can do it. Once the marlin became involved with the presentation, the crew moved from searching to managing the encounter. The angler concentrated on maintaining pressure while the captain controlled Blue Star's position and the deck crew managed the remaining tackle. Every successful marlin fight involves coordination. The fish determines the direction. The captain responds with the boat. The angler works through the runs, changes in pressure and moments when the fish comes closer. Eventually, the marlin was brought under control alongside Blue Star. It was then successfully released back into the Pacific. Two Edmonton Anglers Experience Cabo Fishing With Glen and Dan as the only two guests aboard, the 32' Luhrs offered a very different dynamic from a charter carrying a larger group. There was no need for a complicated angler rotation. Both guests could remain directly involved with the search, watch the trolling spread and follow the crew's movements as conditions developed. When the marlin arrived, the entire charter immediately centered on that fish. The morning's result was simple: 1 marlin caught 1 marlin released 100% of the billfish catch returned to the Pacific The numbers were modest, but the quality of the encounter was significant. Six Hours Provides More Cabo Charter Report Time The six-hour format sits between Blue Sky Cabo's shorter introductory trips and its longer offshore days. Those additional minutes matter when the boat must travel, locate productive water, deploy the trolling presentation and wait for the right fish to respond. Blue Star left at 6:00 AM and had until noon. That gave the crew enough time to work through the morning rather than having the charter defined by the first hour or two of activity. The payoff was the marlin encounter. Once the fish had been successfully released, the result of the trip was established regardless of whether another fish entered the spread. Successful Release Completes the Fishing Report By noon, Glen and Dan were returning toward Cabo San Lucas Marina with a straightforward fishing story to take back to Alberta. Two anglers had left F Dock before much of Cabo's morning activity had begun. They spent six hours aboard the 32' Blue Star Luhrs, fished a dredge-assisted offshore trolling presentation and encountered one of the species most closely associated with Cabo San Lucas. Most importantly, the fish swam away. For this December charter, success wasn't measured by the number of fish brought to the dock. It was one quality encounter followed by the outcome Blue Sky Cabo seeks with marlin: a successful release. Two guests from the Edmonton area. Six hours aboard the 32' Blue Star Luhrs. One marlin caught and successfully released.

The Blue Star spent the day searching offshore without recording a yellowfin tuna. Instead, Daniel and Jonathan encountered substantial skipjack activity. Twenty-five skipjack were caught during the charter. These aggressive schooling fish provide powerful strikes and sustained fights. All 25 were released. Cabo Marlin Fishing Produces a Release The charter also produced one marlin. Once the fish was hooked, the crew managed the fishing spread and boat position throughout the fight. The marlin was successfully brought alongside and released back into the Pacific. Blue Sky Cabo Fishing and Tours maintains a standing policy of releasing all marlin. One dorado added another offshore species to the day's record. Cabo Fishing Uses the Full Twelve Hours A 12-hour charter provides considerably more range than a standard morning trip. That can be important when targeting yellowfin tuna, which may require substantial offshore travel. Travel time still counts both outbound and returning to Cabo San Lucas Marina, so the additional hours provide flexibility to search while preserving fishing time. More time, however, doesn't guarantee the targeted species. December 12 demonstrated exactly that. Daniel and Jonathan targeted tuna but ultimately recorded 27 fish across three different species. The Blue Star returned at 6:00 PM with 25 released skipjack, one dorado and one successfully released marlin completing a full twelve-hour day. Ready to fish Cabo San Lucas?

These highly mobile offshore predators frequently travel with bait concentrations and may also gather around current edges, floating debris and weed lines. Once hooked, dorado are known for aggressive strikes, rapid acceleration and spectacular jumps. The crew also incorporated the dredge into the offshore presentation. A dredge is designed to create the appearance of a concentrated school of bait swimming behind the boat, adding another visual attraction to the fishing spread. Cabo Fishing With Two Boats Jade's overall six-person party used both the Blue Star and Blue Water. Each boat's catch is best documented separately because two yachts departing on the same morning can encounter different conditions and species. This record therefore reflects only the Blue Star. A six-hour charter also requires the crew to balance searching range against usable fishing time. Travel away from Cabo San Lucas Marina has to be considered again for the return. On December 10, the Blue Star completed its six-hour morning with two dorado recorded before returning at noon.

The morning's fishing produced five dorado. Dorado are highly mobile predators that often follow schools of bait and productive current boundaries. They may also concentrate around floating debris and weed lines where smaller baitfish gather. Once hooked, dorado are known for aggressive runs and repeated jumps, making them one of the most exciting offshore species around Cabo. For Patricia's four-person group, five fish provided multiple opportunities during the morning. Cabo Fishing Presentation Includes the Dredge The charter included a dredge. Designed to resemble a concentrated school of bait moving behind the boat, a dredge creates a larger visual attraction intended to draw predators toward the active fishing spread. It's a tool rather than a guarantee. The crew still has to locate productive water and respond to the species encountered. No marlin were recorded during this charter. Instead, the Blue Star found productive dorado activity and the group capitalized on those opportunities. A six-hour charter also requires the crew to manage travel time carefully. Time spent running away from Cabo San Lucas Marina has to be considered again for the return, meaning captains continually balance range against usable fishing time. The Blue Star returned at noon with five dorado completing the day's catch record. Historical reports don't predict what the next charter will catch. They provide a factual look at what occurred on a specific day. For December 9, 2023, that meant four anglers, six hours and five dorado aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star.

After the situation was addressed, additional charter time was provided and the anglers were able to continue fishing. For that reason, the calendar records the trip through 2:00 PM. This should not be interpreted as eight uninterrupted hours offshore. The original booking was six hours, with the additional calendar time resulting from the interruption and subsequent extension. Cabo Dorado Fishing Produces Four Fish The fishing ultimately produced four dorado. These fast-moving predators are known for aggressive strikes, powerful runs and aerial fights. Dorado frequently move with concentrations of bait and can also associate with current boundaries, floating debris and weed lines. The charter included a dredge. Designed to resemble a concentrated school of bait, the dredge adds a larger visual attraction behind the boat and can help bring predators toward the active fishing spread. Fishing doesn't always follow a predictable schedule. Weather, water conditions, moving fish and unexpected circumstances can all change a day's plan. December 8 became a good example. The charter began as a standard six-hour shared trip. The Blue Star had to return to the marina. Additional time was provided. Fishing resumed. Four dorado completed the catch record. Historical fishing reports are valuable precisely because not every trip is identical. Recording unusual circumstances helps provide an accurate account of what actually happened rather than presenting every charter as a routine day offshore. Ready to fish Cabo San Lucas?

Cabo Fishing Report December 6, 2023 – Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charters December 6, 2023 – 2 Marlin Released, 6 Dorado Returning guest Frank and two additional anglers enjoyed a productive eight-hour charter aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star. Charter Date: December 6, 2023 | Charter Length: 8 Hours Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 2:00 PM Boat: Blue Star | Size / Model: 32' Luhrs Anglers: Frank + 2 Guests | Returning Guest: Yes Lunch: Yes | Dredge: Yes Marlin: 2 Released | Dorado: 6 Total Gamefish: 8 | Departure: Cabo San Lucas Cabo Fishing Produces Six Dorado Six dorado provided the majority of the action for Frank's group. Dorado are highly mobile predators that often follow bait concentrations, current edges and floating structure. When located, they can create fast-paced action with aggressive strikes, powerful runs and repeated jumps. The crew also incorporated a dredge into the fishing presentation. Designed to resemble a concentrated school of bait, the dredge provides another visual attraction that can help draw predators toward the active trolling spread. Cabo Marlin Fishing Adds Two Releases The Blue Star also connected with two marlin during the charter. Once a marlin enters the spread, the crew must respond quickly. Lines may need to be cleared, the boat repositioned and the angler assisted throughout a fight that can include deep pressure, long runs and aerial displays. Frank's group successfully completed two marlin fights. Both fish were released back into the Pacific. Blue Sky Cabo Fishing and Tours maintains a standing policy of releasing all marlin. The group's choice of an eight-hour charter also provided additional time to search changing offshore conditions. Travel time is required in both directions, making additional charter time useful when productive water requires more range or the crew decides to investigate activity elsewhere. For a returning guest, the trip demonstrated how different one offshore day can be from another. This December 6 charter delivered both billfish and dorado action. Three anglers finished the day with eight gamefish: six dorado and two marlin successfully released. Ready to fish Cabo San Lucas?

Cabo Fishing Report December 5, 2023 – Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charters December 5, 2023 – 3 Marlin Released, 1 Dorado Jim and three additional anglers boarded the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star for a five-hour morning charter that produced three marlin and one dorado. Charter Date: December 5, 2023 | Charter Length: 5 Hours Departure: 6:30 AM | Return: 11:30 AM Boat: Blue Star | Size / Model: 32' Luhrs Anglers: Jim + 3 Guests | Group Size: 4 Marlin: 3 | Marlin Released: 3 Dorado: 1 | Departure: Cabo San Lucas Cabo Fishing Produces Three Marlin Encounters A five-hour charter provides a relatively compact fishing window because travel time must be included in both directions. On December 5, productive conditions came together for Jim's group. The Blue Star connected with three marlin during the morning. Marlin fishing requires constant observation. Crews watch for birds, bait concentrations, surface activity, current boundaries and changes in water color that can indicate productive water. Once a marlin enters the fishing spread, the situation can change quickly. The crew must manage the remaining lines, assist the angler and position the boat appropriately throughout the fight. Jim's group successfully fought three marlin during the charter. All three fish were released in accordance with Blue Sky Cabo's standing policy of releasing marlin. Cabo Dorado Adds Variety to the Catch The group's fourth gamefish was a dorado. Dorado are recognized for their brilliant colors, aggressive strikes and spectacular aerial fighting ability. They are highly mobile and frequently move with concentrations of bait, floating debris, weed lines and current edges. Finding both marlin and dorado during the same five-hour trip demonstrated the variety that Cabo's offshore fishery can produce when conditions line up. The Blue Star's 32-foot Luhrs configuration was also well suited to the four-person private group. Everyone remained close to the fishing action and could share each hookup as it developed. The final result was an excellent morning: Three marlin caught and released. One dorado. Four anglers. Five hours on the water. A catch like this isn't guaranteed simply because anglers choose a particular date or charter length. Fish move continuously, and productive water changes from one day to another. That unpredictability is part of offshore fishing. On December 5, the Blue Star made excellent use of the available five-hour window and returned at 11:30 AM with four gamefish recorded and all three marlin successfully released.

A dredge creates the visual impression of a concentrated school of bait moving behind and below the boat. The objective is to add another attraction element to the trolling spread and encourage offshore predators to investigate. For Richard and Yoagny, the morning produced two different species.

The dorado added another experience entirely. Dorado are aggressive pelagic predators recognized for speed, powerful runs, vivid coloration and aerial displays. A five-hour charter creates a relatively compact operating window. Offshore travel time must be considered leaving Cabo San Lucas Marina and again when returning, making efficient use of productive water particularly important. On December 4, Blue Star's available five hours produced both marlin and dorado for two anglers. The private nature of the charter also allowed Richard and Yoagny to enjoy the morning at their own pace, including Richard's requested Heineken aboard. They returned at 11:00 AM with two species on the fishing record: one marlin successfully released and one dorado retained. Ready to fish Cabo San Lucas?

James' group connected with three during a five-hour morning. Each marlin was released after the encounter, giving Blue Star a 100% billfish-release result. The four dorado brought a second type of action. Dorado fight differently from marlin, combining speed, rapid direction changes and frequent aerial displays. That gave the four anglers seven fish across two very different offshore species. The five-hour schedule also makes the catch notable. Shorter trips naturally limit how much water a captain can search because travel time must be accounted for both leaving and returning to Cabo San Lucas Marina. Finding productive activity and making efficient use of it becomes particularly important. Blue Star did exactly that on December 3. The group also requested champagne and orange juice aboard for mimosas, adding a relaxed Cabo touch to a morning that became increasingly busy once the fishing started. By 11:00 AM, James' group was returning to F Dock with three successful marlin releases and four dorado on the day's fishing record. Ready to fish Cabo San Lucas?

This charter demonstrated that variety. The marlin provided the billfish encounter of the day. Once the fish was brought alongside the boat, it was released. The dorado added another dimension to the charter. Dorado are recognized for their speed, powerful runs, sudden changes of direction and bright coloration.

Bait concentrations move, currents change and pelagic fish can appear in an area without remaining there for long. That makes a captain and crew's ability to observe the water and react an important part of the fishing day. For Kevin's group, the November 30 trip produced both a marlin encounter and a dorado catch aboard Blue Star. The two fish also provided very different experiences. Marlin bring the power and spectacle associated with billfishing, while dorado are fast, aggressive and famous for their aerial fights.

Five dorado were retained, while two skipjack were released. Seven Fish During a Morning of Cabo Fishing Dorado produced most of the action for the four anglers. Five were caught during the charter, providing multiple opportunities throughout the six-hour trip. Dorado are known for their speed, aggressive strikes and vivid coloration, and they can produce exciting surface action once hooked. All five dorado were retained. Two skipjack provided additional action and a second species. Skipjack are strong, fast fish for their size and can put considerable pressure on an angler. Both were released after being caught. The six-hour charter ran from 6:00 AM until noon, providing more fishing time than a short introductory outing while still allowing the group to return to Cabo around midday.

Cabo Fishing Report – Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charters 1 Dorado and 1 Skipjack Charter Date: November 26, 2023 Charter Length: 9 Hours Boat: 32' Blue Star Luhrs Catch: 1 Dorado and 1 Skipjack Returning customer Kelly joined Amy, Chip and Megan for a full nine-hour fishing charter aboard the 32-foot Blue Star Luhrs in Cabo San Lucas. The group departed at 6:00 AM and had until 3:00 PM to make the most of a long day on the Pacific waters surrounding Cabo. The final catch was one dorado and one skipjack, giving the four anglers two different species during their charter. Nine Hours of Fishing in Cabo Choosing a nine-hour charter provides considerably more fishing time than a shorter trip and gives the crew flexibility to search different areas as conditions develop. Fish can move throughout the day, and offshore activity can change quickly depending on bait, current and water conditions. For Kelly and the group, the extended day produced a dorado along with a skipjack. Dorado are one of the signature game fish found around Cabo San Lucas. Their aggressive strikes, speed and brilliant colors make them a favorite among visiting anglers. A hooked dorado can quickly turn into an exciting battle, particularly when the fish begins jumping near the boat. Skipjack provide a very different experience. These compact members of the tuna family are strong, fast and capable of putting considerable pressure on an angler. Finding skipjack can also be an indication of active offshore water and bait in the area. Returning Guests Back Fishing Cabo Waters Having returning customers aboard is always meaningful because they already understand that no two days of Cabo fishing are exactly alike. One charter might produce marlin offshore, another may find schools of dorado, and another could develop around tuna or smaller pelagic species. Water movement, bait concentrations and changing ocean conditions continually influence where fish are located. That unpredictability is part of the experience. Kelly, Amy, Chip and Megan committed to a full nine-hour day, providing plenty of opportunity for the crew to keep searching and fishing rather than being limited by a short return window. Charter Details Date: November 26, 2023 | Charter Length: 9 Hours Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 3:00 PM Boat: 32' Blue Star Luhrs | Anglers: 4 Dorado: 1 | Skipjack: 1 Total Catch: 2 Fish | Guests: Kelly, Amy, Chip and Megan The result was a straightforward Cabo fishing day with two species aboard and another offshore experience for a returning Blue Sky Cabo customer and group.

Cabo Fishing Report – 12 Yellowfin Tuna and 2 Skipjack Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charter and Tours 32' Luhrs Blue Star – Cabo Fishing Report July 11, 2023 Returning customer Russell booked eight hours aboard the 32' Luhrs Blue Star with Captain Jorge on July 11, 2023. His three-person group from the Sacramento, California area departed Cabo at 6:00 AM with a full day available for offshore fishing. The decision produced one of the better kinds of fishing reports: sustained action. Blue Star finished with 12 yellowfin tuna plus two skipjack, which were released. Cabo Fishing Charter Statistics Date: July 11, 2023 | Boat: 32' Luhrs Blue Star | Captain: Jorge Main City: Sacramento, California | Guests: 3 | Charter Length: 8 Hours Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 2:00 PM | Customer: Returning Guest Yellowfin Tuna: 12 | Skipjack: 2 | Skipjack Released: 2 Trip Type: Private | Primary Species: Yellowfin Tuna | Season: Summer Cabo Report Historical Fishing Conditions Air Temp: ~80°F → 88°F | Water Temp: ~80°F | Wind: ~8–13 mph Moon: Waning Crescent | Moon Illumination: ~37% | Season: Summer Fishing Window: 6:00 AM–2:00 PM | Primary Catch: Yellowfin Tuna | Guests: 3 Fishing Report Begins With a Returning Customer Russell was not experiencing Blue Sky Cabo for the first time. He was a returning customer. For this trip, Russell and two additional guests selected an eight-hour charter aboard Blue Star. Captain Jorge departed at 6:00 AM with enough time to make the search for offshore fish a major part of the day. That additional range becomes particularly useful when yellowfin tuna are the target. Tuna can sometimes be approximately 40 miles offshore, although their actual location changes with bait, current and water conditions. The farther the search extends, the more important it becomes to remember that travel time is required in both directions. Cabo Fishing Finds Yellowfin Tuna Captain Jorge's search eventually produced the opportunity the group needed. Once the tuna were located, Blue Star was able to turn that opportunity into repeated action. The final yellowfin count reached 12. Tuna are powerful fish. Their fights often lack the spectacular jumping associated with marlin, but they compensate with speed, endurance and the ability to pull hard below the surface. For three anglers, 12 yellowfin created multiple opportunities rather than leaving the entire charter dependent on a single fish. Fishing Report Includes Two Skipjack Releases The day also produced two skipjack. Both were released. Blue Sky Cabo releases skipjack and bonito rather than treating them as retained table fish. The yellowfin tuna represented the primary catch for the charter. This distinction is useful in historical reports because a total fish count does not always explain what happened during the day. Russell's group encountered 14 fish across two species. Twelve were yellowfin tuna. Two were skipjack and returned to the water. Cabo Report Shows Why Charter Length Matters Five hours and eight hours can produce very different fishing strategies. A shorter charter limits how far a captain can reasonably search because enough time must always remain for the return to Cabo San Lucas Marina. Eight hours gives the captain additional flexibility. Captain Jorge had a 6:00 AM to 2:00 PM window on July 11. That meant more time to locate fish and, importantly, more time to continue fishing once a productive opportunity was found. Russell's catch demonstrates why anglers specifically interested in offshore species often choose the longer option. Fishing Report Records Summer Conditions Historical conditions provide context for the day. Air temperature was around 80°F during the early morning and climbed toward approximately 88°F later in the charter. Water temperature was approximately 80°F. Winds were generally around 8–13 mph. The moon was a waning crescent with approximately 37% illumination. Conditions alone do not produce a dozen yellowfin. Captain decisions, searching, bait, current and the ability to stay with productive fish all play roles. Cabo Fishing Brings Russell Back Again Repeat customers provide one of the clearest signs that a fishing experience has created a lasting connection. Russell had already fished with Blue Sky Cabo and returned for another charter. Blue Sky Cabo provides complimentary shirts to returning clients, but the central reason for coming back remains another opportunity on the water. This July 11 return produced a strong addition to Russell's Cabo fishing history. Three guests. Eight hours. Captain Jorge. Twelve yellowfin tuna. Two skipjack released. Returning customer Russell and his three-person Sacramento-area group completed an eight-hour charter aboard the 32' Luhrs Blue Star with Captain Jorge, catching 12 yellowfin tuna and releasing two skipjack.

The two guests were visiting from the Anaheim, California area and staying at Grand Solmar. Captain Jorge led the morning charter. Before their scheduled noon return, the search produced one marlin, which was successfully released.

Captain Jorge departed with the couple aboard Blue Star at 6:00 AM. The early start meant the boat could begin searching during the cooler morning period while still having enough charter time to adjust if the first areas did not produce. That flexibility matters offshore. Fish move with bait, current and changing water conditions. Captains may need to leave one area and search another rather than continuing to fish unproductive water. On this morning, the search eventually paid off. Cabo Fishing Produces a Marlin Encounter One marlin changed the character of the trip. The moment a billfish enters the action, the crew's focus shifts immediately toward managing the tackle, positioning the boat and helping the angler through the fight. For a two-person private charter, there is no unrelated group waiting for a turn. The experience belongs to the two guests. Christian and Kristal could enjoy the encounter together as Captain Jorge and the crew worked through the fight. The marlin was ultimately released. Fishing Report Records a Responsible Release Blue Sky Cabo is a marlin and billfish release company. Releasing the fish does not mean losing the memory of the catch. Modern fiberglass reproductions can be created from photographs and measurements, allowing an angler to display a representation of the fish without requiring the actual marlin to be killed. That approach gives guests both sides of the experience. They can fight one of Cabo's signature gamefish and watch it return to the ocean afterward. Christian and Kristal's July 8 marlin was successfully released. Cabo Report Documents July Conditions The charter took place during a warm Cabo summer morning. Historical conditions indicate air temperatures near 79°F around the early departure before warming toward approximately 86°F later in the morning. Water temperature was around 79°F. Morning winds were approximately 8–12 mph. The moon was in a waning gibbous phase with approximately 69% illumination. These conditions provide context for the historical record, while Captain Jorge's job remained finding fish within the available six-hour window. Fishing Report Shows the Six-Hour Advantage Blue Sky Cabo offers private charter durations designed for different types of guests and fishing goals. A five-hour trip provides a shorter introduction. Six hours adds another hour of searching and fishing without requiring guests to spend the entire day offshore. Eight- and ten-hour charters provide still more range when anglers want to pursue fish farther from Cabo. Christian and Kristal selected the middle ground. Their 6:00 AM departure and noon return provided a substantial morning on the water while leaving the afternoon open. For vacationers staying at Grand Solmar, that schedule can make it easier to combine fishing with other Cabo activities on the same day. Cabo Fishing Connects Anaheim With Blue Star Historical fishing reports are most useful when they preserve the details behind the catch. This July 8 trip records two guests from the Anaheim, California area aboard the 32' Luhrs Blue Star. Captain Jorge led the six-hour morning. One marlin was encountered. One marlin was released. Christian and Kristal returned at noon with a Cabo fishing story that could be described in only a few numbers: Two guests. Six hours. One marlin. One successful release. Christian and Kristal completed their six-hour private charter aboard the 32' Luhrs Blue Star with Captain Jorge and successfully released one marlin.

Cabo Fishing Report – 5 Marlin Released Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charter and Tours 32' Luhrs Blue Star – Cabo Fishing Report July 7, 2023 Five marlin released during one eight-hour private charter made July 7, 2023 an exceptional day aboard the 32' Luhrs Blue Star. Cameron was the sole guest for this Friday morning trip. Blue Star departed F Dock at IGY Marina at 6:00 AM with a full eight hours available to search Cabo waters. Cameron had a specific goal when he stepped aboard: he wanted to catch a marlin worthy of becoming a trophy mount. By the 2:00 PM return, he had experienced five marlin encounters. Every marlin was released. Cabo Fishing Charter Statistics Date: July 7, 2023 | Boat: 32' Luhrs Blue Star | Guests: 1 Charter Length: 8 Hours | Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 2:00 PM Catch: 5 Marlin | Released: 5 Marlin | Trip Type: Private Charter Departure Dock: F Dock | Marina: IGY Marina | Location: Cabo San Lucas, Mexico Trophy Goal: Marlin Mount | Mount Option: Fiberglass Replica | Billfish Policy: Release Cabo Report From an Eight-Hour Marlin Charter An eight-hour charter gives an angler something particularly valuable in offshore fishing: time. Fish move throughout the day. Bait concentrations shift, currents change and productive water can require searching. A longer charter gives the crew more opportunity to respond to what is happening rather than being forced to turn toward the marina just as the fishing begins to develop. On this trip, that time paid off. Cameron experienced five marlin during his private day aboard Blue Star. Catching one marlin can become the defining moment of a Cabo vacation. Five marlin during a single charter creates an entirely different experience. With only one guest aboard, Cameron was at the center of the action. Fishing Report Records Five Marlin Releases The final result was straightforward: • 1 angler • 8-hour private charter • 5 marlin • 5 releases Behind those numbers were five individual fishing encounters. Each marlin requires the angler and crew to work together. Once a fish is hooked, tackle must be managed, the boat positioned and the angler coached through the fight. Eventually comes the moment everyone has been working toward—the fish beside the boat. For Blue Sky Cabo, that is also where responsible billfish handling becomes important. Blue Sky Cabo is a marlin and billfish release company. All five marlin from Cameron's charter were released. Cabo Fishing Trophy Without Killing the Marlin Cameron's original goal of mounting a marlin did not require sacrificing the fish. Modern fiberglass replicas can be created using photographs and measurements taken from the marlin. The result gives an angler a permanent representation of the fish while allowing the actual billfish to return to the ocean. This approach is particularly appropriate for a day like Cameron's. Five marlin provided five remarkable encounters, but none needed to be brought back to the marina simply to preserve the memory. Photographs document the experience, measurements can support a fiberglass replica, and the fish remain part of Cabo's billfish population. Fishing Report Shows the Value of Eight Hours Blue Star left F Dock at 6:00 AM and did not need to return until 2:00 PM. That eight-hour window gave the charter significantly more flexibility than a shorter morning trip. Blue Sky Cabo offers private five-, six-, eight- and ten-hour charter options, allowing guests to match the trip length to their target species, experience level and desired fishing range. Fishing licenses, live bait and fishing equipment are included on current Blue Sky Cabo charters. For anglers specifically targeting marlin, additional fishing time can be valuable because there is never a guarantee that the first location or presentation will immediately produce a fish. Cameron's July 7 trip demonstrates what can happen when opportunity and sufficient fishing time come together. Cabo Report Preserves an Exceptional Marlin Day Historical fishing reports are useful because they preserve the individual stories behind the catch numbers. July 7, 2023 was not simply another eight-hour trip aboard Blue Star. It was a private charter with one guest who arrived wanting a memorable marlin. Cameron found five. Each fish added another chapter to the day, and every marlin ultimately returned to the water. For one angler aboard a 32' Luhrs, five marlin releases in eight hours made this a Cabo fishing day worth recording. Cameron's private eight-hour charter aboard the 32' Luhrs Blue Star finished with five marlin caught and all five released.

Cabo Fishing Report – 80-Pound Yellowfin Tuna and Dorado August 29, 2026 1 Yellowfin Tuna and 1 Dorado During a Six-Hour Cabo Fishing Charter A family from White Plains, New York enjoyed a productive late-August fishing trip aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star with Captain Chewy. Edit, Julio, Isabella and Kennedy spent six hours fishing the warm waters around Cabo San Lucas and finished the charter with two quality pelagic fish. The standout catch was an approximately 80-pound yellowfin tuna. A 20-pound dorado added a second species and brought the estimated combined weight of the two fish to approximately 100 pounds.

At approximately 80 pounds, this was a substantial tuna requiring much more than a quick fight. Yellowfin are powerful swimmers built for sustained speed and endurance. Larger fish can make hard initial runs before settling into the deeper stages of the battle. Captain Chewy and the crew helped the anglers maintain pressure while keeping the boat positioned during the fight. Successfully bringing the tuna aboard turned one offshore opportunity into the biggest catch of the family's morning. August 29 Catch Results Species Approx. Weight Result Yellowfin Tuna 80 lbs Caught Dorado 20 lbs Caught Combined Catch 100 lbs 2 Game Fish The numbers show why the tuna became the centerpiece of the trip, but the dorado provided valuable species variety during a relatively compact six-hour fishing window. Dorado Adds Color and Speed to the Cabo Fishing Day The approximately 20-pound dorado created a very different offshore experience. Dorado are known for rapid acceleration, aggressive strikes and brilliant coloration. Once hooked, they can produce quick runs and aerial action that contrast sharply with the sustained strength of a large yellowfin tuna. Catching both species allowed the family to experience two distinct styles of Cabo fishing during the same morning. Warm August Conditions Around Cabo Water temperature was approximately 88°F, with air temperature beginning around 84°F and climbing into the upper 80s. Winds were approximately 9–12 mph under a mixture of clouds and sunshine. Captain Chewy could continually watch the surrounding water for signs that might reveal productive areas, including: Concentrations of baitfish Working birds Current seams Surface disturbances Floating structure or debris These observations are particularly valuable during a six-hour charter because making productive use of the available fishing time matters.

The 80-pound yellowfin delivered the strength and endurance associated with larger tuna, while the 20-pound dorado brought speed, color and a completely different fight. Approximately 100 pounds of combined fish during a six-hour charter made this a productive family outing aboard Blue Star and another example of the species variety available during late-summer fishing in Cabo San Lucas.

Cabo Fishing Report – Marlin and Dorado Action in Cabo San Lucas August 15, 2026 Charter Length: 8 Hours | Boat: Blue Star – 32' Luhrs 3 Marlin Released and 1 Small Dorado Released Three experienced anglers from Dallas, Texas enjoyed an active eight-hour offshore fishing charter aboard Blue Star with Captain Chewy. Chris, Logan and Dakota finished the day with four game fish encounters: three marlin and one small dorado, with all four fish successfully released. The trip demonstrated the quality of Cabo's warm-water billfish action during August. With approximately 89.6°F water offshore, Captain Chewy continually worked changing conditions rather than depending on one location or one opportunity.

This charter produced three separate marlin encounters. Each fish gave the anglers another opportunity to experience the combination of strength, speed and surface action that makes marlin such an important part of Cabo sportfishing. Captain Chewy continually evaluated the offshore environment while searching for productive water. Current direction, bait movement, water color and bird activity can all provide clues about where predators may be feeding. The strategy ultimately produced three marlin, and all three were successfully released. August 15 Fishing Results Species Number Charter Result Marlin 3 All Released Dorado 1 Released Total Game Fish 4 100% Released The small dorado added a second species to the day's action. Because of its size, it was also released, allowing the fish to continue growing in Cabo's offshore ecosystem. Dorado Adds Another Species to the Charter Dorado offer a very different fight from marlin. They are known for rapid acceleration, aggressive strikes, brilliant coloration and unpredictable movements near the surface. Finding one during a day already producing multiple marlin gave the anglers another example of the variety available in Cabo's warm August water. The decision to release the small dorado meant every game fish encountered during the charter returned to the water. Extremely Warm August Water Water temperature was approximately 89.6°F. Air temperatures were in the mid-to-upper 80s during the morning before becoming hotter later in the day. Conditions were hot and humid with periods of sunshine and tropical cloud cover. During an eight-hour charter, the crew has time to search for changing offshore indicators, including: Bait concentrations Working birds Current boundaries Water-color changes Surface activity Having additional fishing time can become particularly useful when marlin are scattered or when the crew needs to reposition as conditions develop.

Three marlin provided three separate billfish battles, while the small dorado added another warm-water species to the experience. Most importantly, every fish was successfully released. With four game fish, two species and eight hours aboard the 32-foot Blue Star, the final result was a memorable late-summer fishing day in Cabo San Lucas: three marlin released and one dorado released.

Cabo Fishing Report – August 7, 2026 – Tuna and Dorado 1 Large Tuna and 1 Dorado Caught Charter Date: August 7, 2026 Charter Length: 6 Hours Boat: 32' Luhrs Blue Star Captain: Chewy Catch: 1 Large Tuna and 1 Dorado August 7 produced a quality two-species fishing day for Payam, Daniel, Gavin and Grace aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star. The family headed out with Captain Chewy for a six-hour private charter and returned with two very different offshore game fish — one large tuna and one dorado. Rather than being a numbers-driven day, this charter was highlighted by variety. The tuna provided the heavier, more powerful battle, while the dorado added the speed and brilliant coloration associated with one of Cabo's most recognizable offshore species. Searching Productive Water While Fishing Offshore From Cabo A six-hour charter provides a useful balance between fishing time and offshore range. Captain Chewy was able to search beyond the immediate marina area while still keeping the trip comfortable for a family that included 10-year-old Daniel. Conditions were warm during the August charter. The original fishing record reported water temperatures around 83–85°F, air temperatures around 90–92°F and relatively light winds. Finding productive water remained the objective. When the large tuna entered the action, the family experienced the strength that makes tuna such a popular offshore target. These fish can remain deep during a fight, using their power and endurance against the angler. The dorado offered a completely different encounter. Dorado are fast, energetic game fish recognized immediately by their bright coloration. Catching one on the same charter as a quality tuna gave the group two contrasting examples of Cabo's summer fishery.

For Daniel, at 10 years old, the charter offered an opportunity to see firsthand how an offshore fishing trip develops. There can be periods of searching followed by sudden action when a game fish finds the presentation. That unpredictability is part of offshore fishing. Once a fish is hooked, the atmosphere aboard the boat changes immediately. The crew manages the equipment and fishing area while the angler concentrates on the fight and everyone else gets to watch the encounter develop. On August 7, the family experienced that process with two different species. Tuna and Dorado Complete a Six-Hour Cabo Charter By the end of the six-hour trip, Payam, Daniel, Gavin and Grace had put together a simple but memorable fishing result. One large tuna provided the heavyweight encounter. One dorado added another quality game fish to the day. The result demonstrated that a productive Cabo charter does not necessarily require a large number of fish. Two quality catches from different species can provide plenty of action and give visiting anglers a better appreciation for the variety available in the waters surrounding Cabo San Lucas. For this family, August 7 became a day built around warm summer conditions, six hours together on the Pacific and two distinctly different offshore catches.

The Sacramento group spent six hours offshore, with one large tuna becoming the defining catch of their family fishing experience. Searching for Tuna While Fishing Around Cabo The crew worked productive offshore water throughout the charter, maintaining the trolling presentation while looking for additional opportunities. Water temperature was reported around 78°F. Afternoon air temperatures reached approximately 90°F, with moderate winds creating active Pacific conditions. Finding offshore tuna requires attention to what is happening across the water rather than simply following a predetermined route. Crews may watch for concentrations of bait, birds, surface activity, current boundaries and other signs capable of revealing where feeding fish are moving. The search ultimately produced the opportunity the family wanted. A large tuna entered the action.

Approx. 78°F Air Temp. Approx. 90°F Anglers 5 Home City Sacramento Catch Snapshot Species Caught Tuna 1 Total Game Fish 1 A Large Tuna Creates the Cabo Fishing Highlight Once hooked, tuna provide a very different battle from many surface-oriented game fish. Their strength is often directed downward, producing sustained runs and periods of heavy pressure below the boat. Maintaining consistent pressure becomes important as the fight develops. For a mixed family group, a quality tuna encounter also creates a team experience. While one angler handles the rod, everyone aboard can follow the fight as the captain and crew position the boat and manage the surrounding fishing equipment. For 14-year-old Lucas, the trip offered the opportunity to experience offshore fishing alongside his family. The large tuna ultimately became the fish everyone aboard would remember. One Quality Fish Defines a Six-Hour Charter Fishing success is not always best measured by the number of fish brought alongside. On July 30, the Blue Star charter produced one game fish, but it was a substantial tuna capable of turning a single hookup into the centerpiece of the entire six-hour experience. Jose, Holly, Alfred, Curtis and Lucas shared the offshore search, the anticipation of the strike and the battle that followed. Their day demonstrated how one quality tuna can transform a family charter into a memorable Pacific fishing experience.

Cabo Fishing Report – July 28, 2026 – Blue Marlin Released and Dorado Caught 1 Blue Marlin Released and 1 Dorado Caught Charter Date: July 28, 2026 | Charter Time: 8:00 AM Charter Length: 8 Hours | Boat: Blue Star – 32' Luhrs Captain: Chewy | Dredge: Used Anglers: Stephanie, Jon and Scott | Home City: Houston, Texas Blue Marlin: 1 Caught and Released | Dorado: 1 Caught Total Game Fish: 2 | Species Caught: Blue Marlin and Dorado July 28 delivered an impressive two-species offshore fishing experience for Stephanie, Jon and Scott aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star with Captain Chewy. The Houston group committed to an eight-hour charter, giving the crew substantial time to search productive offshore water. Their day produced two very different game fish: one colorful dorado and a powerful blue marlin that was successfully released. Eight Hours of Offshore Fishing Around Cabo An eight-hour charter gives the captain considerably more flexibility than a shorter morning trip. There is additional time to travel, search changing water conditions and remain with promising signs when game fish are farther from the marina. Captain Chewy and the crew incorporated the dredge into their offshore presentation. A dredge creates the appearance of a concentrated school of baitfish beneath the surface. Rather than being the hooked bait itself, it provides additional movement and visual attraction behind the boat, encouraging predatory fish to investigate the trolling spread. That offshore strategy produced opportunities with both dorado and blue marlin.

Once the fish entered the presentation and was hooked, the pace aboard Blue Star changed immediately. Captain Chewy maneuvered the boat while the crew managed the fishing equipment and worked with the anglers throughout the fight. Blue marlin combine exceptional power, speed and endurance. Their size and ability to make long runs can turn a single hookup into an extended battle requiring coordination between the angler, captain and crew. After the fight, the marlin was brought alongside and successfully released back into the Pacific. Dorado Adds a Second Offshore Species The group also caught a dorado, giving the charter a completely different type of game-fish encounter. Dorado are recognized for aggressive strikes, speed and spectacular green, gold and blue coloration. Compared with the heavy power of a blue marlin, dorado provide a lighter but highly energetic fight that adds variety to an offshore day. Catching both species during the same eight-hour charter gave Stephanie, Jon and Scott two distinctly different experiences. One provided the speed, color and action associated with dorado. The other delivered the strength and excitement of battling a blue marlin before completing a successful release. For the Houston group, July 28 became an eight-hour Pacific adventure highlighted by two game fish and one memorable billfish release.

Cabo Fishing Report – July 26, 2026 – Bull Dorado 1 Bull Dorado Caught Charter Date: July 26, 2026 | Charter Time: 8:00 AM Charter Length: 6 Hours | Boat: Blue Star – 32' Luhrs Captain: Chewy | Catch: 1 Bull Dorado Total Game Fish: 1 | Species Caught: Dorado Anglers: Westin, Madison and Brittany | Dredge: Used Charter Type: Private | Conditions: Changing Pressure, Slower Bite July 26 presented Captain Chewy and three anglers aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star with a challenging offshore fishing window. Westin, Madison and Brittany headed out on a six-hour private charter just before changing conditions resulted in a port closure. Fish activity was slower, but the crew stayed persistent and eventually put the group on one impressive bull dorado. Adapting to Changing Conditions While Fishing Around Cabo Offshore fishing conditions can change quickly. Current, bait movement, water temperature, wind and atmospheric pressure can all influence where game fish are located and how aggressively they feed. That made flexibility particularly important on July 26. Captain Chewy continued searching productive water and adjusting the approach rather than remaining committed to an area that was not producing. The Blue Sky Cabo dredge was also incorporated into the trolling presentation. A dredge is an underwater attraction device designed to create the appearance of a concentrated school of baitfish. Its movement and visual profile can help attract larger predatory fish toward the trolling spread. Despite the slower activity, persistence eventually produced the opportunity the group needed.

Dorado are among the most recognizable offshore game fish because of their vivid coloration, aggressive strikes and energetic fighting style. A bull dorado can make powerful runs and rapid changes in direction, transforming a slow fishing period into fast action within seconds. This fish did exactly that. After spending the charter adapting to difficult conditions, the crew's persistence was rewarded with a substantial dorado and a memorable battle for the anglers. Six Hours of Offshore Fishing on Blue Star The July 26 charter is also a good example of why offshore fishing cannot be judged solely by the number of fish caught. Some days provide multiple hookups in quick succession. Others require the captain and crew to search, adjust and work through changing conditions to create a single quality opportunity. This was the second type of day. Captain Chewy and the crew stayed with the program despite reduced fish activity, and Westin, Madison and Brittany were ultimately rewarded with a bull dorado. One quality game fish became the defining moment of six hours aboard Blue Star and demonstrated how quickly persistence can change an offshore fishing day.

Their six-hour private charter produced two different offshore species—dorado and bonita—while comfortable summer conditions provided an enjoyable setting for the group. Family Fishing Action Around Cabo Captain Chewy worked the available water while monitoring the conditions and looking for productive areas holding active fish. The Blue Sky Cabo dredge system was incorporated into the presentation. A dredge is an underwater attraction device designed to create the appearance of a concentrated school of baitfish beneath the surface. Its purpose is to add movement and visual attraction behind the boat and help draw predatory game fish toward the fishing spread. That approach helped the group connect with both dorado and bonita.

Dorado are known for their spectacular green, gold and blue coloration along with fast runs and energetic fights. A hooked dorado can change direction quickly and may produce exciting surface action. Bonita bring their own combination of speed and strength. Their streamlined bodies are built for fast movement through the water, making them energetic opponents on appropriately matched fishing equipment. Catching both species gave the Chicago group variety rather than a day centered on a single target. The original charter record confirms both species were caught but does not provide individual quantities. For that reason, no numerical catch total has been added to this report. Six Hours Aboard Blue Star Comfortable conditions helped make the July 24 outing particularly suitable for a family group. Water temperatures were around 82°F, winds remained light and the seas were comfortable with relatively small waves. Those conditions allowed Captain Chewy and the crew to concentrate on fishing while David, Taylor, Michelle, Andrew and Nolan experienced six hours together offshore. The combination of dorado, bonita, pleasant summer conditions and a family-oriented charter created a successful day without needing to exaggerate the catch. For this Chicago group, July 24 became a documented two-species fishing experience aboard Blue Star with Captain Chewy.

Cabo Fishing Report – 3 Marlin and 2 Skipjack Released Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charter and Tours 32 Foot Luhrs – Cabo Fishing Report December 19, 2023 Devin, William and Jessica traveled from the Birmingham, Alabama area and boarded the 32' Blue Star Luhrs for an eight-hour offshore charter from Cabo San Lucas. Their day produced steady variety with three marlin and two skipjack, and all five fish were successfully released. Rather than being defined by one encounter, this charter developed through multiple opportunities across a full eight-hour fishing window. Three separate marlin encounters ultimately made billfish the centerpiece of the day. Cabo Charter Details and Fishing Conditions Date: December 19, 2023 | Boat: 32' Blue Star Luhrs | Captain: Blue Star Crew Guests: 3 | Guest Home Area: Birmingham, Alabama | Charter Length: 8 Hours Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 2:00 PM | Catch: 3 Marlin, 2 Skipjack Marlin Released: 3 | Skipjack Released: 2 | Technique: Offshore Trolling Departure Dock: F Dock | Marina: IGY Marina | Location: Cabo San Lucas Air Temperature: ~68°F → 82°F | Water Temperature: ~73°F | Wind: ~9 mph Swell: ~2–4 ft | Moon: First Quarter | Moon Illumination: ~50% Three Marlin Build an Exceptional Cabo Fishing Day An eight-hour charter gives anglers something particularly valuable offshore: time. Blue Star departed F Dock at approximately 6:00 AM, allowing the crew to begin searching early and continue working well into the afternoon. The first marlin provided the initial breakthrough. Once the fish became involved with the trolling presentation, the crew transitioned quickly from searching to managing a billfish encounter. The captain positioned Blue Star while the angler worked the fish and the deck crew kept the fishing area organized. The encounter ended with the marlin successfully released. But with plenty of charter time remaining, the fishing continued. A second marlin eventually created another opportunity. Then came a third. Three marlin encounters turned what could have been a good morning into a memorable full-day experience. Multiple Releases Define This Cabo Charter Report Release fishing became one of the strongest themes of the day. All three marlin were returned to the Pacific after their encounters. The two skipjack caught during the charter were also released. That produced a simple final conservation record: 3 marlin caught and released 2 skipjack caught and released 5 fish caught and 5 fish released For Devin, William and Jessica, the day's success therefore wasn't measured by fish returning to the dock. It was measured by encounters experienced on the water. Eight Hours Expands This Offshore Fishing Report The difference between a shorter charter and an eight-hour trip becomes particularly noticeable when several billfish are encountered. Every marlin requires time. The strike develops, the fish must be fought, the captain manages the boat and the crew handles the fishing equipment. Once the release is completed, everything must be prepared again before the search resumes. Blue Star went through that cycle three separate times. The eight-hour window allowed the crew to keep fishing after the first marlin and again after the second. That persistence eventually produced the third billfish encounter. Birmingham Anglers Experience Cabo Fishing Variety With only three guests aboard the 32' Luhrs, Devin, William and Jessica had plenty of room to follow the action closely. The marlin provided the major offshore excitement, while the skipjack added two additional encounters during the day. Those skipjack were released in keeping with Blue Sky Cabo's fishing practices. The combination created a charter with two species but a very clear identity: this was fundamentally a marlin day. Three billfish during one eight-hour trip gave the Alabama group repeated opportunities to experience one of the primary species that makes Cabo San Lucas internationally recognized among offshore anglers. Five Releases Complete This Cabo Charter Report Blue Star returned toward Cabo San Lucas at approximately 2:00 PM after a full eight hours on the Pacific. The final numbers told a strong story. Three anglers had experienced three marlin encounters. Two skipjack added additional action. And every fish caught during the charter was released. For Devin, William and Jessica, December 19 became a day built around repeated offshore opportunities rather than a single defining strike. Three marlin released. Two skipjack released. Three guests from the Birmingham area. Eight hours aboard the 32' Blue Star Luhrs.

Cabo Fishing Report – 2 Marlin Released Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charter and Tours 32 Foot Luhrs – Cabo Fishing Report December 18, 2023 Robert and Susan, visiting from the Toledo, Ohio area, headed onto the Pacific aboard the 32' Blue Star Luhrs for a six-hour morning charter from Cabo San Lucas. Their December fishing day developed into a successful billfish trip with two marlin caught and both successfully released. With six hours available, Blue Star had enough time to leave F Dock early, search productive offshore water and work the trolling presentation for one of Cabo's signature game fish. Cabo Charter Details and Fishing Conditions Date: December 18, 2023 | Boat: 32' Blue Star Luhrs | Captain: Blue Star Crew Guests: 2 | Guest Home Area: Toledo, Ohio | Charter Length: 6 Hours Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 12:00 PM | Catch: 2 Marlin Marlin Released: 2 | Primary Species: Marlin | Technique: Offshore Trolling Departure Dock: F Dock | Marina: IGY Marina | Location: Cabo San Lucas Air Temperature: ~66°F → 81°F | Water Temperature: ~73°F | Wind: ~8 mph Swell: ~2–4 ft | Moon: Waxing Crescent | Moon Illumination: ~41% Two Marlin Highlight This Cabo Charter Report Blue Star departed Cabo San Lucas Marina at approximately 6:00 AM with Robert and Susan aboard. Morning departures allow the crew to begin searching as the day develops and fishing activity starts taking shape offshore. The trolling presentation went to work as Blue Star searched for signs of billfish. The first marlin turned that search into action. Once the fish committed, the captain positioned the 32' Luhrs while the crew managed the fishing equipment and helped the angler through the fight. Marlin can change direction quickly, stay deep or suddenly come toward the surface. Maintaining pressure while the captain maneuvers the boat requires coordination throughout the encounter. The first fish was successfully brought alongside and released back into the Pacific. Then Blue Star returned to fishing. Second Marlin Builds the Offshore Fishing Report One successful marlin encounter can define a charter, but Robert and Susan's morning was not finished. Blue Star continued working the offshore water after the first release. The fishing presentation was reset, the search resumed and eventually a second marlin created another opportunity. That second encounter gave the guests another complete billfish experience. The result was straightforward: 2 marlin caught 2 marlin successfully released 100% of the marlin returned to the Pacific Catching two marlin during a six-hour morning charter made billfish the clear focus of the December 18 trip. Six Hours Creates Productive Cabo Fishing Time A six-hour charter sits between a shorter introductory trip and a full eight- or ten-hour offshore day. That additional time can become particularly valuable after the first fish is caught. A marlin encounter consumes time as the angler fights the fish, the captain positions the boat and the crew manages the equipment. Once the release is completed, the trolling presentation must be reorganized before fishing resumes. Robert and Susan still had enough time after their first marlin to continue searching. That decision paid off with the second fish. Instead of returning with one successful release, Blue Star completed the morning with two. Toledo Guests Shape This Cabo Charter Report For two guests from the Toledo area, the 32' Blue Star Luhrs provided a comfortable platform for a focused morning of offshore fishing. A two-person charter also creates a very different experience from fishing with a large group. There is plenty of room aboard the boat, and when a marlin enters the spread, the guests can follow every part of the encounter closely. The morning developed around two important moments: the first marlin appearing in the spread and the second fish proving the initial encounter was not going to be the only billfish opportunity of the day. Two Successful Releases Complete the Fishing Report By approximately noon, Blue Star was returning toward Cabo San Lucas after six hours on the Pacific. Robert and Susan had experienced two marlin encounters and two successful releases. Both fish were returned to the ocean, making conservation an important part of the day's result. For a December morning aboard the 32' Luhrs, the final numbers told the story clearly. Two guests. Six hours. Two marlin caught. Two marlin successfully released.

A shorter charter requires efficient use of time because every run away from Cabo San Lucas eventually requires return travel. The morning produced both marlin and dorado action. Cabo Marlin Fishing Ends With a Release One marlin delivered the group's primary billfish encounter. A marlin fight requires cooperation between angler and crew while the boat is positioned and the remaining fishing spread is managed. The fish was successfully fought to the boat. It was then released back into the Pacific. Blue Sky Cabo Fishing and Tours releases marlin whenever a healthy release is possible. The group also caught one dorado. Known for speed, brilliant coloration and aerial fights, dorado provide a distinctly different offshore experience from battling a marlin. The two species gave Russ, Leisha, Austin and Abby variety during their five-hour morning. At 11:00 AM, the Blue Star returned to Cabo San Lucas with one dorado and one successfully released marlin recorded.

Cabo Fishing Report December 13, 2023 – Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charters December **hidden content** Marlin Released Glen and Dan from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada fished aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star for a six-hour private morning charter. Charter Date: December 13, 2023 | Charter Length: 6 Hours Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 12:00 PM Boat: Blue Star | Size / Model: 32' Luhrs Anglers: Glen & Dan | Home City: Edmonton, Alberta Dredge: Yes | Marlin: 1 Released Charter Type: Private | Departure: Cabo San Lucas Cabo Fishing Uses the Dredge Offshore The Blue Star departed at 6:00 AM with six hours available to search productive offshore water. The charter included a dredge. Designed to resemble a concentrated school of bait moving beneath the surface, the dredge adds visual attraction to the fishing presentation. The crew still has to locate productive conditions and convert any opportunities that develop. Cabo Marlin Fishing Produces a Successful Release One marlin became the defining fish of the charter. When a marlin enters the fishing spread, the crew has to react quickly while the boat is positioned and the angler settles into the fight. Glen and Dan's opportunity was successfully converted. The marlin was fought to the boat and released back into the Pacific. Blue Sky Cabo Fishing and Tours releases marlin whenever a healthy release is possible. A six-hour charter also requires careful management of travel time. Every run away from Cabo San Lucas eventually requires time for the return. The objective isn't simply to travel farther offshore. It is to locate productive water within the available charter window. For Glen and Dan, one marlin provided the day's headline encounter. At noon, the Blue Star returned to Cabo San Lucas after six hours offshore with one marlin successfully released. Historical fishing reports document actual individual results rather than guaranteeing future catches. Ready to fish Cabo San Lucas?

Cabo Fishing Report – 1 Marlin Released Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charter and Tours 32 Foot Luhrs – Cabo Fishing Report December 13, 2023 Glen and Dan traveled from the Edmonton, Alberta area and boarded the 32' Blue Star Luhrs for a six-hour morning charter from Cabo San Lucas. Their trip produced the encounter many visiting anglers come to Cabo hoping to experience: one marlin caught and successfully released. With only two guests aboard, this was a focused fishing day. The charter departed at 6:00 AM, providing an early start and six hours for the Blue Star crew to search offshore water, work the trolling presentation and capitalize when a billfish opportunity finally developed. Cabo Morning Charter and Fishing Conditions Date: December 13, 2023 | Boat: 32' Blue Star Luhrs | Captain: Blue Star Crew Guests: 2 | Guest Home Area: Edmonton, Alberta | Charter Length: 6 Hours Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 12:00 PM | Catch: 1 Marlin Marlin Released: 1 | Dredge: Included | Technique: Offshore Trolling Departure Dock: F Dock | Marina: IGY Marina | Location: Cabo San Lucas Air Temperature: ~68°F → 82°F | Water Temperature: ~73°F | Wind: Light to Moderate Swell: ~2–4 ft | Moon: New Moon | Moon Illumination: ~1% Dredge Presentation Shapes This Cabo Report This charter was built around creating one strong offshore opportunity. Blue Star carried a dredge presentation, adding another element to the trolling spread as the crew searched for marlin. A dredge is designed to create the appearance of concentrated bait moving behind the boat. Instead of relying on a single lure or bait to attract attention, the presentation adds movement and visual activity beneath the surface. For Glen and Dan, patience eventually paid off. A marlin entered the picture and transformed a morning of searching into a full billfish encounter. One Strike Defines the Fishing Report Marlin fishing doesn't always require multiple bites to create a memorable day. One committed fish can do it. Once the marlin became involved with the presentation, the crew moved from searching to managing the encounter. The angler concentrated on maintaining pressure while the captain controlled Blue Star's position and the deck crew managed the remaining tackle. Every successful marlin fight involves coordination. The fish determines the direction. The captain responds with the boat. The angler works through the runs, changes in pressure and moments when the fish comes closer. Eventually, the marlin was brought under control alongside Blue Star. It was then successfully released back into the Pacific. Two Edmonton Anglers Experience Cabo Fishing With Glen and Dan as the only two guests aboard, the 32' Luhrs offered a very different dynamic from a charter carrying a larger group. There was no need for a complicated angler rotation. Both guests could remain directly involved with the search, watch the trolling spread and follow the crew's movements as conditions developed. When the marlin arrived, the entire charter immediately centered on that fish. The morning's result was simple: 1 marlin caught 1 marlin released 100% of the billfish catch returned to the Pacific The numbers were modest, but the quality of the encounter was significant. Six Hours Provides More Cabo Charter Report Time The six-hour format sits between Blue Sky Cabo's shorter introductory trips and its longer offshore days. Those additional minutes matter when the boat must travel, locate productive water, deploy the trolling presentation and wait for the right fish to respond. Blue Star left at 6:00 AM and had until noon. That gave the crew enough time to work through the morning rather than having the charter defined by the first hour or two of activity. The payoff was the marlin encounter. Once the fish had been successfully released, the result of the trip was established regardless of whether another fish entered the spread. Successful Release Completes the Fishing Report By noon, Glen and Dan were returning toward Cabo San Lucas Marina with a straightforward fishing story to take back to Alberta. Two anglers had left F Dock before much of Cabo's morning activity had begun. They spent six hours aboard the 32' Blue Star Luhrs, fished a dredge-assisted offshore trolling presentation and encountered one of the species most closely associated with Cabo San Lucas. Most importantly, the fish swam away. For this December charter, success wasn't measured by the number of fish brought to the dock. It was one quality encounter followed by the outcome Blue Sky Cabo seeks with marlin: a successful release. Two guests from the Edmonton area. Six hours aboard the 32' Blue Star Luhrs. One marlin caught and successfully released.

Cabo Fishing Report December 12, 2023 – Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charters December **hidden content** Marlin Released, 25 Skipjack Released, 1 Dorado Daniel and Jonathan from Los Angeles, California boarded the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star for a dedicated 12-hour tuna trip. Charter Date: December 12, 2023 | Charter Length: 12 Hours Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 6:00 PM Boat: Blue Star | Size / Model: 32' Luhrs Anglers: Daniel & Jonathan | Home City: Los Angeles, California Trip Objective: Tuna | Tuna: None Recorded Marlin: 1 Released | Dorado: 1 Skipjack: 25 Released | Total Fish: 27 Departure: Cabo San Lucas | Lunch: Included Cabo Tuna Fishing Becomes a Multi-Species Day Tuna were the objective, but offshore fishing doesn't always follow the original plan. The Blue Star spent the day searching offshore without recording a yellowfin tuna. Instead, Daniel and Jonathan encountered substantial skipjack activity. Twenty-five skipjack were caught during the charter. These aggressive schooling fish provide powerful strikes and sustained fights. All 25 were released. Cabo Marlin Fishing Produces a Release The charter also produced one marlin. Once the fish was hooked, the crew managed the fishing spread and boat position throughout the fight. The marlin was successfully brought alongside and released back into the Pacific. Blue Sky Cabo Fishing and Tours maintains a standing policy of releasing all marlin. One dorado added another offshore species to the day's record. Cabo Fishing Uses the Full Twelve Hours A 12-hour charter provides considerably more range than a standard morning trip. That can be important when targeting yellowfin tuna, which may require substantial offshore travel. Travel time still counts both outbound and returning to Cabo San Lucas Marina, so the additional hours provide flexibility to search while preserving fishing time. More time, however, doesn't guarantee the targeted species. December 12 demonstrated exactly that. Daniel and Jonathan targeted tuna but ultimately recorded 27 fish across three different species. The Blue Star returned at 6:00 PM with 25 released skipjack, one dorado and one successfully released marlin completing a full twelve-hour day. Ready to fish Cabo San Lucas?

Cabo Fishing Report December 10, 2023 – Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charters December **hidden content** Dorado Jade's group from Austin, Texas fished from Cabo San Lucas on December 10, 2023, as part of a two-boat charter. This report covers the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star portion of the trip. Charter Date: December 10, 2023 | Charter Length: 6 Hours Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 12:00 PM Boat: Blue Star | Size / Model: 32' Luhrs Lead Guest: Jade | Home City: Austin, Texas Group Booking: 6 Passengers / 2 Boats | Dredge: Included Dorado: 2 | Report Coverage: Blue Star Only Cabo Dorado Fishing Produces Two Fish Two dorado were recorded aboard the Blue Star. These highly mobile offshore predators frequently travel with bait concentrations and may also gather around current edges, floating debris and weed lines. Once hooked, dorado are known for aggressive strikes, rapid acceleration and spectacular jumps. The crew also incorporated the dredge into the offshore presentation. A dredge is designed to create the appearance of a concentrated school of bait swimming behind the boat, adding another visual attraction to the fishing spread. Cabo Fishing With Two Boats Jade's overall six-person party used both the Blue Star and Blue Water. Each boat's catch is best documented separately because two yachts departing on the same morning can encounter different conditions and species. This record therefore reflects only the Blue Star. A six-hour charter also requires the crew to balance searching range against usable fishing time. Travel away from Cabo San Lucas Marina has to be considered again for the return. On December 10, the Blue Star completed its six-hour morning with two dorado recorded before returning at noon. Historical reports document actual individual charter results rather than predicting what future anglers will catch. Ready to fish Cabo San Lucas?

Cabo Fishing Report December 9, 2023 – Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charters December 9, 2023 – 5 Dorado Patricia and three additional anglers fished aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star on December 9, 2023, for a six-hour private charter. Charter Date: December 9, 2023 | Charter Length: 6 Hours Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 12:00 PM Boat: Blue Star | Size / Model: 32' Luhrs Anglers: 4 | Dredge: Yes Dorado: 5 | Total Gamefish: 5 Charter Type: Private | Time of Day: Morning Cabo Fishing Produces Five Dorado The Blue Star departed at 6:00 AM with six hours available to search the waters surrounding Cabo San Lucas. The morning's fishing produced five dorado. Dorado are highly mobile predators that often follow schools of bait and productive current boundaries. They may also concentrate around floating debris and weed lines where smaller baitfish gather. Once hooked, dorado are known for aggressive runs and repeated jumps, making them one of the most exciting offshore species around Cabo. For Patricia's four-person group, five fish provided multiple opportunities during the morning. Cabo Fishing Presentation Includes the Dredge The charter included a dredge. Designed to resemble a concentrated school of bait moving behind the boat, a dredge creates a larger visual attraction intended to draw predators toward the active fishing spread. It's a tool rather than a guarantee. The crew still has to locate productive water and respond to the species encountered. No marlin were recorded during this charter. Instead, the Blue Star found productive dorado activity and the group capitalized on those opportunities. A six-hour charter also requires the crew to manage travel time carefully. Time spent running away from Cabo San Lucas Marina has to be considered again for the return, meaning captains continually balance range against usable fishing time. The Blue Star returned at noon with five dorado completing the day's catch record. Historical reports don't predict what the next charter will catch. They provide a factual look at what occurred on a specific day. For December 9, 2023, that meant four anglers, six hours and five dorado aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star.

Cabo Fishing Report December 8, 2023 – Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charters December 8, 2023 – 4 Dorado Duane and Robert participated in a shared charter aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star on December 8, 2023. Charter Date: December 8, 2023 | Booked Charter: 6 Hours Calendar Window: 6:00 AM–2:00 PM | Charter Type: Shared Boat: Blue Star | Size / Model: 32' Luhrs Primary Anglers: Duane & Robert | Dredge: Yes Dorado: 4 | Total Gamefish: 4 Trip Interrupted: Return to Marina | Additional Time: Provided Cabo Fishing Trip Requires an Unexpected Return The Blue Star departed at 6:00 AM for a six-hour shared charter. During the trip, an unexpected situation involving one guest required the boat to return to the marina. Guest wellbeing took priority. After the situation was addressed, additional charter time was provided and the anglers were able to continue fishing. For that reason, the calendar records the trip through 2:00 PM. This should not be interpreted as eight uninterrupted hours offshore. The original booking was six hours, with the additional calendar time resulting from the interruption and subsequent extension. Cabo Dorado Fishing Produces Four Fish The fishing ultimately produced four dorado. These fast-moving predators are known for aggressive strikes, powerful runs and aerial fights. Dorado frequently move with concentrations of bait and can also associate with current boundaries, floating debris and weed lines. The charter included a dredge. Designed to resemble a concentrated school of bait, the dredge adds a larger visual attraction behind the boat and can help bring predators toward the active fishing spread. Fishing doesn't always follow a predictable schedule. Weather, water conditions, moving fish and unexpected circumstances can all change a day's plan. December 8 became a good example. The charter began as a standard six-hour shared trip. The Blue Star had to return to the marina. Additional time was provided. Fishing resumed. Four dorado completed the catch record. Historical fishing reports are valuable precisely because not every trip is identical. Recording unusual circumstances helps provide an accurate account of what actually happened rather than presenting every charter as a routine day offshore. Ready to fish Cabo San Lucas?

Cabo Fishing Report December 6, 2023 – Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charters December 6, 2023 – 2 Marlin Released, 6 Dorado Returning guest Frank and two additional anglers enjoyed a productive eight-hour charter aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star. Charter Date: December 6, 2023 | Charter Length: 8 Hours Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 2:00 PM Boat: Blue Star | Size / Model: 32' Luhrs Anglers: Frank + 2 Guests | Returning Guest: Yes Lunch: Yes | Dredge: Yes Marlin: 2 Released | Dorado: 6 Total Gamefish: 8 | Departure: Cabo San Lucas Cabo Fishing Produces Six Dorado Six dorado provided the majority of the action for Frank's group. Dorado are highly mobile predators that often follow bait concentrations, current edges and floating structure. When located, they can create fast-paced action with aggressive strikes, powerful runs and repeated jumps. The crew also incorporated a dredge into the fishing presentation. Designed to resemble a concentrated school of bait, the dredge provides another visual attraction that can help draw predators toward the active trolling spread. Cabo Marlin Fishing Adds Two Releases The Blue Star also connected with two marlin during the charter. Once a marlin enters the spread, the crew must respond quickly. Lines may need to be cleared, the boat repositioned and the angler assisted throughout a fight that can include deep pressure, long runs and aerial displays. Frank's group successfully completed two marlin fights. Both fish were released back into the Pacific. Blue Sky Cabo Fishing and Tours maintains a standing policy of releasing all marlin. The group's choice of an eight-hour charter also provided additional time to search changing offshore conditions. Travel time is required in both directions, making additional charter time useful when productive water requires more range or the crew decides to investigate activity elsewhere. For a returning guest, the trip demonstrated how different one offshore day can be from another. This December 6 charter delivered both billfish and dorado action. Three anglers finished the day with eight gamefish: six dorado and two marlin successfully released. Ready to fish Cabo San Lucas?

Cabo Fishing Report December 5, 2023 – Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charters December 5, 2023 – 3 Marlin Released, 1 Dorado Jim and three additional anglers boarded the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star for a five-hour morning charter that produced three marlin and one dorado. Charter Date: December 5, 2023 | Charter Length: 5 Hours Departure: 6:30 AM | Return: 11:30 AM Boat: Blue Star | Size / Model: 32' Luhrs Anglers: Jim + 3 Guests | Group Size: 4 Marlin: 3 | Marlin Released: 3 Dorado: 1 | Departure: Cabo San Lucas Cabo Fishing Produces Three Marlin Encounters A five-hour charter provides a relatively compact fishing window because travel time must be included in both directions. On December 5, productive conditions came together for Jim's group. The Blue Star connected with three marlin during the morning. Marlin fishing requires constant observation. Crews watch for birds, bait concentrations, surface activity, current boundaries and changes in water color that can indicate productive water. Once a marlin enters the fishing spread, the situation can change quickly. The crew must manage the remaining lines, assist the angler and position the boat appropriately throughout the fight. Jim's group successfully fought three marlin during the charter. All three fish were released in accordance with Blue Sky Cabo's standing policy of releasing marlin. Cabo Dorado Adds Variety to the Catch The group's fourth gamefish was a dorado. Dorado are recognized for their brilliant colors, aggressive strikes and spectacular aerial fighting ability. They are highly mobile and frequently move with concentrations of bait, floating debris, weed lines and current edges. Finding both marlin and dorado during the same five-hour trip demonstrated the variety that Cabo's offshore fishery can produce when conditions line up. The Blue Star's 32-foot Luhrs configuration was also well suited to the four-person private group. Everyone remained close to the fishing action and could share each hookup as it developed. The final result was an excellent morning: Three marlin caught and released. One dorado. Four anglers. Five hours on the water. A catch like this isn't guaranteed simply because anglers choose a particular date or charter length. Fish move continuously, and productive water changes from one day to another. That unpredictability is part of offshore fishing. On December 5, the Blue Star made excellent use of the available five-hour window and returned at 11:30 AM with four gamefish recorded and all three marlin successfully released.

The dorado added another experience entirely. Dorado are aggressive pelagic predators recognized for speed, powerful runs, vivid coloration and aerial displays. A five-hour charter creates a relatively compact operating window. Offshore travel time must be considered leaving Cabo San Lucas Marina and again when returning, making efficient use of productive water particularly important. On December 4, Blue Star's available five hours produced both marlin and dorado for two anglers. The private nature of the charter also allowed Richard and Yoagny to enjoy the morning at their own pace, including Richard's requested Heineken aboard. They returned at 11:00 AM with two species on the fishing record: one marlin successfully released and one dorado retained. Ready to fish Cabo San Lucas?

James' group connected with three during a five-hour morning. Each marlin was released after the encounter, giving Blue Star a 100% billfish-release result. The four dorado brought a second type of action. Dorado fight differently from marlin, combining speed, rapid direction changes and frequent aerial displays. That gave the four anglers seven fish across two very different offshore species. The five-hour schedule also makes the catch notable. Shorter trips naturally limit how much water a captain can search because travel time must be accounted for both leaving and returning to Cabo San Lucas Marina. Finding productive activity and making efficient use of it becomes particularly important. Blue Star did exactly that on December 3. The group also requested champagne and orange juice aboard for mimosas, adding a relaxed Cabo touch to a morning that became increasingly busy once the fishing started. By 11:00 AM, James' group was returning to F Dock with three successful marlin releases and four dorado on the day's fishing record. Ready to fish Cabo San Lucas?

This charter demonstrated that variety. The marlin provided the billfish encounter of the day. Once the fish was brought alongside the boat, it was released. The dorado added another dimension to the charter. Dorado are recognized for their speed, powerful runs, sudden changes of direction and bright coloration.

Bait concentrations move, currents change and pelagic fish can appear in an area without remaining there for long. That makes a captain and crew's ability to observe the water and react an important part of the fishing day. For Kevin's group, the November 30 trip produced both a marlin encounter and a dorado catch aboard Blue Star. The two fish also provided very different experiences.

Five dorado were retained, while two skipjack were released. Seven Fish During a Morning of Cabo Fishing Dorado produced most of the action for the four anglers. Five were caught during the charter, providing multiple opportunities throughout the six-hour trip. Dorado are known for their speed, aggressive strikes and vivid coloration, and they can produce exciting surface action once hooked. All five dorado were retained. Two skipjack provided additional action and a second species. Skipjack are strong, fast fish for their size and can put considerable pressure on an angler. Both were released after being caught. The six-hour charter ran from 6:00 AM until noon, providing more fishing time than a short introductory outing while still allowing the group to return to Cabo around midday.

Cabo Fishing Report – Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charters 1 Dorado and 1 Skipjack Charter Date: November 26, 2023 Charter Length: 9 Hours Boat: 32' Blue Star Luhrs Catch: 1 Dorado and 1 Skipjack Returning customer Kelly joined Amy, Chip and Megan for a full nine-hour fishing charter aboard the 32-foot Blue Star Luhrs in Cabo San Lucas. The group departed at 6:00 AM and had until 3:00 PM to make the most of a long day on the Pacific waters surrounding Cabo. The final catch was one dorado and one skipjack, giving the four anglers two different species during their charter. Nine Hours of Fishing in Cabo Choosing a nine-hour charter provides considerably more fishing time than a shorter trip and gives the crew flexibility to search different areas as conditions develop. Fish can move throughout the day, and offshore activity can change quickly depending on bait, current and water conditions. For Kelly and the group, the extended day produced a dorado along with a skipjack. Dorado are one of the signature game fish found around Cabo San Lucas. Their aggressive strikes, speed and brilliant colors make them a favorite among visiting anglers. A hooked dorado can quickly turn into an exciting battle, particularly when the fish begins jumping near the boat. Skipjack provide a very different experience. These compact members of the tuna family are strong, fast and capable of putting considerable pressure on an angler. Finding skipjack can also be an indication of active offshore water and bait in the area. Returning Guests Back Fishing Cabo Waters Having returning customers aboard is always meaningful because they already understand that no two days of Cabo fishing are exactly alike. One charter might produce marlin offshore, another may find schools of dorado, and another could develop around tuna or smaller pelagic species. Water movement, bait concentrations and changing ocean conditions continually influence where fish are located. That unpredictability is part of the experience. Kelly, Amy, Chip and Megan committed to a full nine-hour day, providing plenty of opportunity for the crew to keep searching and fishing rather than being limited by a short return window. Charter Details Date: November 26, 2023 | Charter Length: 9 Hours Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 3:00 PM Boat: 32' Blue Star Luhrs | Anglers: 4 Dorado: 1 | Skipjack: 1 Total Catch: 2 Fish | Guests: Kelly, Amy, Chip and Megan The result was a straightforward Cabo fishing day with two species aboard and another offshore experience for a returning Blue Sky Cabo customer and group.

His three-person group from the Sacramento, California area departed Cabo at 6:00 AM with a full day available for offshore fishing. The decision produced one of the better kinds of fishing reports: sustained action. Blue Star finished with 12 yellowfin tuna plus two skipjack, which were released. Cabo Fishing Charter Statistics Date: July 11, 2023 | Boat: 32' Luhrs Blue Star | Captain: Jorge Main City: Sacramento, California | Guests: 3 | Charter Length: 8 Hours Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 2:00 PM | Customer: Returning Guest Yellowfin Tuna: 12 | Skipjack: 2 | Skipjack Released: 2 Trip Type: Private | Primary Species: Yellowfin Tuna | Season: Summer Cabo Report Historical Fishing Conditions Air Temp: ~80°F → 88°F | Water Temp: ~80°F | Wind: ~8–13 mph Moon: Waning Crescent | Moon Illumination: ~37% | Season: Summer Fishing Window: 6:00 AM–2:00 PM | Primary Catch: Yellowfin Tuna | Guests: 3 Fishing Report Begins With a Returning Customer Russell was not experiencing Blue Sky Cabo for the first time. He was a returning customer. For this trip, Russell and two additional guests selected an eight-hour charter aboard Blue Star. Captain Jorge departed at 6:00 AM with enough time to make the search for offshore fish a major part of the day. That additional range becomes particularly useful when yellowfin tuna are the target. Tuna can sometimes be approximately 40 miles offshore, although their actual location changes with bait, current and water conditions. The farther the search extends, the more important it becomes to remember that travel time is required in both directions. Cabo Fishing Finds Yellowfin Tuna Captain Jorge's search eventually produced the opportunity the group needed. Once the tuna were located, Blue Star was able to turn that opportunity into repeated action. The final yellowfin count reached 12. Tuna are powerful fish. Their fights often lack the spectacular jumping associated with marlin, but they compensate with speed, endurance and the ability to pull hard below the surface. For three anglers, 12 yellowfin created multiple opportunities rather than leaving the entire charter dependent on a single fish. Fishing Report Includes Two Skipjack Releases The day also produced two skipjack. Both were released. Blue Sky Cabo releases skipjack and bonito rather than treating them as retained table fish. The yellowfin tuna represented the primary catch for the charter. This distinction is useful in historical reports because a total fish count does not always explain what happened during the day. Russell's group encountered 14 fish across two species. Twelve were yellowfin tuna. Two were skipjack and returned to the water. Cabo Report Shows Why Charter Length Matters Five hours and eight hours can produce very different fishing strategies. A shorter charter limits how far a captain can reasonably search because enough time must always remain for the return to Cabo San Lucas Marina. Eight hours gives the captain additional flexibility. Captain Jorge had a 6:00 AM to 2:00 PM window on July 11. That meant more time to locate fish and, importantly, more time to continue fishing once a productive opportunity was found. Russell's catch demonstrates why anglers specifically interested in offshore species often choose the longer option. Fishing Report Records Summer Conditions Historical conditions provide context for the day. Air temperature was around 80°F during the early morning and climbed toward approximately 88°F later in the charter. Water temperature was approximately 80°F. Winds were generally around 8–13 mph. The moon was a waning crescent with approximately 37% illumination. Conditions alone do not produce a dozen yellowfin. Captain decisions, searching, bait, current and the ability to stay with productive fish all play roles. Cabo Fishing Brings Russell Back Again Repeat customers provide one of the clearest signs that a fishing experience has created a lasting connection. Russell had already fished with Blue Sky Cabo and returned for another charter. Blue Sky Cabo provides complimentary shirts to returning clients, but the central reason for coming back remains another opportunity on the water. This July 11 return produced a strong addition to Russell's Cabo fishing history. Three guests. Eight hours. Captain Jorge. Twelve yellowfin tuna. Two skipjack released. Returning customer Russell and his three-person Sacramento-area group completed an eight-hour charter aboard the 32' Luhrs Blue Star with Captain Jorge, catching 12 yellowfin tuna and releasing two skipjack.

Cabo Fishing Report – 1 Marlin Released Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charter and Tours 32' Luhrs Blue Star – Cabo Fishing Report July 8, 2023 Christian and Kristal left Cabo San Lucas at 6:00 AM on July 8, 2023 for a six-hour private charter aboard the 32' Luhrs Blue Star. The two guests were visiting from the Anaheim, California area and staying at Grand Solmar. Captain Jorge led the morning charter. Before their scheduled noon return, the search produced one marlin, which was successfully released. Cabo Fishing Charter Statistics Date: July 8, 2023 | Boat: 32' Luhrs Blue Star | Captain: Jorge Main City: Anaheim, California | Guests: 2 | Charter Length: 6 Hours Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 12:00 PM | Trip Type: Private Morning Charter Catch: 1 Marlin | Released: 1 Marlin | Release Rate: 100% Hotel: Grand Solmar | Location: Cabo San Lucas | Season: Summer Cabo Report Historical Fishing Conditions Air Temp: ~79°F → 86°F | Water Temp: ~79°F | Wind: ~8–12 mph Moon: Waning Gibbous | Moon Illumination: ~69% | Season: Summer Fishing Window: 6:00 AM–12:00 PM | Primary Species: Marlin | Guests: 2 Fishing Report Starts Early With Captain Jorge Christian and Kristal had six hours available for their private Cabo fishing trip. Captain Jorge departed with the couple aboard Blue Star at 6:00 AM. The early start meant the boat could begin searching during the cooler morning period while still having enough charter time to adjust if the first areas did not produce. That flexibility matters offshore. Fish move with bait, current and changing water conditions. Captains may need to leave one area and search another rather than continuing to fish unproductive water. On this morning, the search eventually paid off. Cabo Fishing Produces a Marlin Encounter One marlin changed the character of the trip. The moment a billfish enters the action, the crew's focus shifts immediately toward managing the tackle, positioning the boat and helping the angler through the fight. For a two-person private charter, there is no unrelated group waiting for a turn. The experience belongs to the two guests. Christian and Kristal could enjoy the encounter together as Captain Jorge and the crew worked through the fight. The marlin was ultimately released. Fishing Report Records a Responsible Release Blue Sky Cabo is a marlin and billfish release company. Releasing the fish does not mean losing the memory of the catch. Modern fiberglass reproductions can be created from photographs and measurements, allowing an angler to display a representation of the fish without requiring the actual marlin to be killed. That approach gives guests both sides of the experience. They can fight one of Cabo's signature gamefish and watch it return to the ocean afterward. Christian and Kristal's July 8 marlin was successfully released. Cabo Report Documents July Conditions The charter took place during a warm Cabo summer morning. Historical conditions indicate air temperatures near 79°F around the early departure before warming toward approximately 86°F later in the morning. Water temperature was around 79°F. Morning winds were approximately 8–12 mph. The moon was in a waning gibbous phase with approximately 69% illumination. These conditions provide context for the historical record, while Captain Jorge's job remained finding fish within the available six-hour window. Fishing Report Shows the Six-Hour Advantage Blue Sky Cabo offers private charter durations designed for different types of guests and fishing goals. A five-hour trip provides a shorter introduction. Six hours adds another hour of searching and fishing without requiring guests to spend the entire day offshore. Eight- and ten-hour charters provide still more range when anglers want to pursue fish farther from Cabo. Christian and Kristal selected the middle ground. Their 6:00 AM departure and noon return provided a substantial morning on the water while leaving the afternoon open. For vacationers staying at Grand Solmar, that schedule can make it easier to combine fishing with other Cabo activities on the same day. Cabo Fishing Connects Anaheim With Blue Star Historical fishing reports are most useful when they preserve the details behind the catch. This July 8 trip records two guests from the Anaheim, California area aboard the 32' Luhrs Blue Star. Captain Jorge led the six-hour morning. One marlin was encountered. One marlin was released. Christian and Kristal returned at noon with a Cabo fishing story that could be described in only a few numbers: Two guests. Six hours. One marlin. One successful release. Christian and Kristal completed their six-hour private charter aboard the 32' Luhrs Blue Star with Captain Jorge and successfully released one marlin.

Cabo Fishing Report – 5 Marlin Released Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charter and Tours 32' Luhrs Blue Star – Cabo Fishing Report July 7, 2023 Five marlin released during one eight-hour private charter made July 7, 2023 an exceptional day aboard the 32' Luhrs Blue Star. Cameron was the sole guest for this Friday morning trip. Blue Star departed F Dock at IGY Marina at 6:00 AM with a full eight hours available to search Cabo waters. Cameron had a specific goal when he stepped aboard: he wanted to catch a marlin worthy of becoming a trophy mount. By the 2:00 PM return, he had experienced five marlin encounters. Every marlin was released. Cabo Fishing Charter Statistics Date: July 7, 2023 | Boat: 32' Luhrs Blue Star | Guests: 1 Charter Length: 8 Hours | Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 2:00 PM Catch: 5 Marlin | Released: 5 Marlin | Trip Type: Private Charter Departure Dock: F Dock | Marina: IGY Marina | Location: Cabo San Lucas, Mexico Trophy Goal: Marlin Mount | Mount Option: Fiberglass Replica | Billfish Policy: Release Cabo Report From an Eight-Hour Marlin Charter An eight-hour charter gives an angler something particularly valuable in offshore fishing: time. Fish move throughout the day. Bait concentrations shift, currents change and productive water can require searching. A longer charter gives the crew more opportunity to respond to what is happening rather than being forced to turn toward the marina just as the fishing begins to develop. On this trip, that time paid off. Cameron experienced five marlin during his private day aboard Blue Star. Catching one marlin can become the defining moment of a Cabo vacation. Five marlin during a single charter creates an entirely different experience. With only one guest aboard, Cameron was at the center of the action. Fishing Report Records Five Marlin Releases The final result was straightforward: • 1 angler • 8-hour private charter • 5 marlin • 5 releases Behind those numbers were five individual fishing encounters. Each marlin requires the angler and crew to work together. Once a fish is hooked, tackle must be managed, the boat positioned and the angler coached through the fight. Eventually comes the moment everyone has been working toward—the fish beside the boat. For Blue Sky Cabo, that is also where responsible billfish handling becomes important. Blue Sky Cabo is a marlin and billfish release company. All five marlin from Cameron's charter were released. Cabo Fishing Trophy Without Killing the Marlin Cameron's original goal of mounting a marlin did not require sacrificing the fish. Modern fiberglass replicas can be created using photographs and measurements taken from the marlin. The result gives an angler a permanent representation of the fish while allowing the actual billfish to return to the ocean. This approach is particularly appropriate for a day like Cameron's. Five marlin provided five remarkable encounters, but none needed to be brought back to the marina simply to preserve the memory. Photographs document the experience, measurements can support a fiberglass replica, and the fish remain part of Cabo's billfish population. Fishing Report Shows the Value of Eight Hours Blue Star left F Dock at 6:00 AM and did not need to return until 2:00 PM. That eight-hour window gave the charter significantly more flexibility than a shorter morning trip. Blue Sky Cabo offers private five-, six-, eight- and ten-hour charter options, allowing guests to match the trip length to their target species, experience level and desired fishing range. Fishing licenses, live bait and fishing equipment are included on current Blue Sky Cabo charters. For anglers specifically targeting marlin, additional fishing time can be valuable because there is never a guarantee that the first location or presentation will immediately produce a fish. Cameron's July 7 trip demonstrates what can happen when opportunity and sufficient fishing time come together. Cabo Report Preserves an Exceptional Marlin Day Historical fishing reports are useful because they preserve the individual stories behind the catch numbers. July 7, 2023 was not simply another eight-hour trip aboard Blue Star. It was a private charter with one guest who arrived wanting a memorable marlin. Cameron found five. Each fish added another chapter to the day, and every marlin ultimately returned to the water. For one angler aboard a 32' Luhrs, five marlin releases in eight hours made this a Cabo fishing day worth recording. Cameron's private eight-hour charter aboard the 32' Luhrs Blue Star finished with five marlin caught and all five released.
