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

great fishing day
Full Day Trip – All Inclusive on January 6, 20262 adults
we decided to fo an eight hour trip, looking to catch yellow fin tuna and hope the ectra time would be worth while. it was an absolutely beautiful day out on the water. As soon as we got out of the harbor and around the rock point, 10 minutes into tge trip, we started catching Doritos. we catch five in 20 minutes! we then headed further out, about 4 to 5 mikes off shore. Gilbert tge captain, stated that the previous day, they had taken in some tuna were were not out as far as usual. After a bir, we jooked and brought in a three foit Mahi Mahi. Then later on we briught in a yellow fin tuna. subsequently later on, we hooked a large yellow fin, but lost it after a few minutes. There had been a number of tuna breaking tge surface around large pods of dolphins, but tgey were not taking the bait. later on, we hooked a large 125 pound marlin, which we were able after 20 minutes get up vlose to the boat, but it snapped the line. We also had a large fish that the crew said was a Wahoo, that cut tge line and got away. Overall, it was a great dsy! The captain and fiest mate, Roscoe, were very accommodating and worked hard to ensure our comfort and happiness. They were very gracious and accommodating!

Half Day Trip – All Inclusive (AM) on December 26, 20255 adults
These guys took us out for a second day and we hunted stripped marlin. these guys were postivir and patient. When the call came that there were marlin feeding closer inland, the captian gunned it top speed to get us in play. There was a lot of competition in the spot but the captian kept looking and raced to find our fish. Joe was on it the whole time and hustling to get our bait out. We had a marlin on in minutes. He supported my son in landing his fisrt sport fish on his 18th birthday. These guys know their game and are hustling gor excellence tye whole time. Top shelf experience. Highly recommended.

Full Day Trip – All Inclusive on January 2, 20263 adults
We arrived 15 min early, went straight onto the boat, which was fully outfitted and ready to go, and were out of the marina in no time. Capt Gil and Mate Joel were fantastic. We were catching Bonita and Mahi about 30 min into the trip, then focused on Marlin. This was exactly what we were out for so were not disappointed. In fact, the Marlin were great, even catching the last one on the way in. Well be back and will use them again. I highly recommend Cabo Sportfishing Crew.

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.
