Cabo Sportfishing Crew runs half and full day trips out of the famous sportfishing town of Cabo San Lucas, going after the huge fish which have made this town a household name among anglers worldwide. Captain Ismael heads an experienced crew that has the skills, the resolve, and the equipment to get you on that fish of a lifetime, without breaking the bank in the process.

You will be fishing aboard the “Blue Tail,” a 29’ Californian sportfishing boat. A brand new 2019 model, she features everything you will need for some world-class sportfishing, as well as plenty of luxuries to make your trip even more enjoyable. The boat has a convertible top to keep off the hot Mexican sun, and a stylish interior complete with an enclosed head for extra comfort on longer trips. The trips are all inclusive.

The Blue Tail is equipped with the latest electronics to sweep the deep in search of big fish. Then her outriggers and downriggers will let you target every species out there and her fighting chair will let you hold your own, no matter how hard they fight. She has a livewell full of quality bait and tuna tubes to let you work your way up to some real monsters.

What you target on your trip is entirely up to you. Even on a half day, you will have plenty of time to head out in search of pelagic species if you want to. Or, if you want to spend the whole day fishing the bays for big Roosterfish, Snapper, and Grouper, that is completely fine, too.

There is tackle aboard to target all these species and more, with a choice of light and heavy tackle, and the option to troll, bottom fish, jig, or pop the day away. The Cabo Sportfishing Crew will walk you through all these techniques and work hard to make sure you get as much out of your time with them as possible.

You will be supplied with everything you need for the trip, all you need to do is show up. So what are you waiting for? Grab your camera and jump aboard for the trip of a life

Best fishing trip ever!
Full Day Trip – All Inclusive on November 27, 20254 adults
We had an absolutely phenomenal day on the water with Captain Gilbert and his first mate, Joel. From the second we left the dock, they worked tirelessly to give us an unforgettable experience. Their focus, skill, and nonstop effort showed every minute—we were reeling in Bonita, grouper, skipjack, sea bass, and even a massive striped marlin that became the highlight of the entire trip. Gilbert and Joel know exactly what they're doing, and they make the entire outing fun, safe, and memorable. If you want a crew that goes above and beyond to make sure you have the kind of fishing trip people dream about, this is the team. Easily a five-star experience.

Fish on!! Marlin and Mahi
5Hrs All Inclusive + Transfer (AM) on November 18, 20251 adult
Captain Gilbert and First Mate Joel delivered an unforgettable day on the water. From the first light over the Cabo arches to the final run back to the marina, the whole trip was smooth, safe, and action-packed. We landed a pair of beautiful Mahi Mahi (i had theses filleted and took them back to hotel to prepare) and an incredible Striped Marlin thanks to Gilbert's deep knowledge of these waters and Joel's nonstop hustle on the deck. These guys are pros — friendly, focused, and fully committed to getting you on fish. Excellent boat, excellent gear, and even better people. I'll be booking with this crew again without hesitation.

best crew ever
Half Day Trip – All Inclusive (PM) on November 3, 20252 adults
Captain Gilbert and Andreas were absolutely the best to work with on our Marlin fishing trip. My 16 year old and I booked this trip as a fun getaway with a chance to catch a prize. As it turns out, within 30 minutes of getting to the fishing grounds, we not only hooked one marlin, but two at the same time. Within seconds da we saw one of the jump out of the water about 150 yards off the back of the boat. I lost on after a short 15 minute stint in the fighting chair, but my son kept battling. Gilbert and Andreas worked together to keep us in the optimal position to assist in getting the marlin on board. After an hour, my son got the 8.5 foot Striped Marlin on board! Pictures will be attached to this post. The food and drink provided were perfect for the trip. Andreas kept us entertained and informed us along the way of what we needed and how things worked. When we returned to the dock, they assisted us in having a taxidermist waiting for us to arrange in shipping the prized possession. You can't go wrong with these two and fishing booker certainly assisted with making this a perfect trip. Thanks again Gilbert and Andreas!

Trip of a lifetime!
Half Day Trip – All Inclusive (AM) on October 18, 20254 adults
We decided to book a fishing trip for our first time in Cabo. My son is 12 and loves fishing, I also took my wife and mother in law, both brand new to fishing. The boat was immaculate, and as soon as we walked on it Our guide Joel was friendly, energetic and extremely knowledgeable. We first caught a few bait fish which was fun for my son and then we headed out to chase the big guys. We immediately landed a mahi mahi. Then after about 2 hours of trolling Joel says I'm going to change lures to see if we can attract some tuna. Writhing 10 minutes our line went crazy and we were on a big fish. We fought and fought and finally got a monster yellow fin tuna on the boat. WHAT AN EXPERIENCE. I'll never forget this trip and the kindness and hospitality the crew showed. I highly recommend this trip to any aspiring fisherman, BUT, if you land a tuna, be prepared to work! It paid off and was one of the best trips of my life!! Thank you Cabo Sport Fishing Crew!!
