If you're ready to have fun fishing in Cabo San Lucas, look no further than Dorado lV cabo fishing adventures. Having logged many hours on these tides, Captain Juan can tell you all about the local fishery.

Depending on the season, you might hook into Yellowfin Tuna, Striped Marlin, Blue Marlin, Black Marlin, White Marlin, Wahoo, Yellowtail Amberjack, Sierra Mackerel, Roosterfish, Mako Shark, Sailfish, Dolphin (Mahi Mahi), and who knows what else!

On these trips, it's common to troll and bottom fish using light or heavy tackle.

Looking to get the whole family outdoors? Kids are absolutely welcome! If you don't have a child-sized life vest of your own, be sure to ask if there's one on board. Snacks are also a good idea, so that nobody gets grumpy on an empty belly!

You'll step aboard a 28' Sportfishing boat that can carry up to 4 passengers. It comes with outriggers, two fighting chairs, and everything else you need for a productive day on the water. There's a toilet on board for your convenience.

You'll find rods, reels, and tackle waiting for you, along with lures. Live bait is on offer, but it's good to ask about this so you know if you'll be catching it yourself.

Trips are run with the help of a First Mate. Mates work hard to make your trip count, so a 10–20% tip is customary.

You might need to purchase a local fishing license before the trip. This information is usually online, or you can ask the captain. Some species may be off-limits or require a special tag, so make sure you know what to expect.

You can't go wrong if you bring sunglasses, bottled water, and sunscreen (non-spray). Drinks are included, free of charge. Alcohol is allowed in moderation, but try to avoid hard liquor as well as glass bottles.

Now's the time to no experience fishing in Cabo San Lucas for yourself, with Dorado lV Cabo fishing Adventures!

    Two Great Trips

    Half day 5-HR trip (AM) on July 21, 2026 • 4 adults

    We’ve fished with Dorado IV twice now, and both trips were outstanding. Two years ago, Captain Lucas and mate Michael put us on the fish of a lifetime—a 110-inch marlin. This year, Captain Lucas and mate Abraham delivered again with an incredible mixed bag that included yellowfin tuna, a trophy roosterfish, and another marlin that unfortunately threw the hook. Juan is first-class from start to finish. He meets you at the dock, helps you get your fishing licenses, welcomes you back after the trip, and even takes you to the fish market to help negotiate having your catch cleaned and prepared. If you’re looking for a professional crew that works hard, puts you on fish, and provides an outstanding overall experience, I highly recommend Dorado IV. We’ll definitely be back.

    Great Experience!

    Half day 5-HR trip (AM) on February 11, 2025 • 3 adults • 1 child

    We didn’t catch too many fish, but it wasn’t because of a lack of effort by the crew. We went out wish a rough sea, but the crew took care of us. They were great to my 9 year old son. We caught a few rooster fish and saw whales and seals. We had Pancho the seal even jump on the back of the boat for some left over bait. Easy day for us because the crew took good care of us.

Hi, I'm Captain Lucas Moreno. Fishing has always been a part of my family's life. My father, my two brothers, and now my two kids all share the same passion for being out on the water. We've spent countless days fishing together and making unforgettable memories, especially when we hook into big fish! For me, fishing is more than a job or hobby, it's my life and what truly makes me happy.
