Large Shark Caught and Released During an Extended Cabo Fishing Charter
October 20, 2026, brought an unexpected offshore fishing encounter for Arlen and Nikol aboard the 35-foot Blue Water Riviera, operated by Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charters in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.
The two guests departed Cabo San Lucas Marina at 6:00 AM for a private sportfishing adventure that ultimately extended until 1:15 PM. After more than seven hours on the water, their trip produced one large shark, successfully caught and released.
While Cabo San Lucas is internationally recognized for its marlin, tuna, dorado, and wahoo fishing, encounters with other powerful ocean predators can make a charter equally memorable.
For Arlen and Nikol, the shark became the defining catch of their October fishing adventure.

Offshore Fishing With a Dredge in Cabo San Lucas
The Blue Water crew incorporated a dredge into the offshore fishing setup during this charter.
A dredge is a specialized trolling teaser designed to imitate a concentrated school of baitfish moving beneath the ocean surface. These presentations are commonly used when targeting billfish and other large offshore predators.
By creating the visual appearance of schooling bait, a dredge can encourage predators to investigate the surrounding fishing spread.
Although the precise bait or lure responsible for hooking the shark was not documented, dredge equipment was part of the day's fishing operation.
The encounter illustrated how unpredictable Cabo offshore fishing can be. A charter prepared for traditional game fish can produce a completely different species, adding excitement and variety to the experience.
October Fishing Opportunities in Cabo San Lucas
October is an exciting period for sportfishing around the southern Baja California Peninsula.
Warm offshore waters can provide opportunities to encounter blue marlin, striped marlin, yellowfin tuna, dorado, wahoo, and other pelagic species.
Sharks also inhabit the region's productive marine environment, where baitfish activity and offshore food sources attract larger predators.
Every fishing trip unfolds differently depending on ocean conditions, fish movement, and the species encountered.
For Arlen and Nikol, the opportunity to experience a large shark at the end of their fishing line made October 20 a distinctive day aboard the Blue Water.
Responsible Shark Catch-and-Release Fishing
The shark was released following the catch, an important outcome for this offshore fishing adventure.
Sharks play a significant role in marine ecosystems, and responsible recreational fishing practices help support the long-term health of ocean environments.
The successful release meant the guests could experience the excitement of encountering a large predator without retaining the fish.
Private Cabo Fishing Aboard the 35-Foot Blue Water Riviera
The 35-foot Blue Water Riviera provides a private sportfishing experience for guests exploring the waters surrounding Cabo San Lucas.
With just Arlen and Nikol aboard, the October 20 charter offered an intimate fishing experience and the flexibility of an extended outing.
After seven hours and fifteen minutes offshore, the guests returned to Cabo San Lucas Marina with the memory of one large shark caught and released.
It was another example of the variety of encounters possible while fishing the Pacific waters of Cabo San Lucas.
