Wahoo & Striped Marlin Success – 8-Hour Offshore Trip (August 18) On August 18, ADRENALINA 2.0, captained by Rubén López, departed Cabo San Lucas at 6:05 AM for an 8-hour offshore fishing charter with two anglers and two crew members. We headed toward San Jaime and, approximately 3 miles offshore, deployed our full trolling spread: short Petrolero and Tigrillo lures, long Chihuili and Flying Fish lures, a short purple feather, a long dead caballito, and two teasers. We initially worked our way out to approximately 7 miles offshore. After receiving a report of better activity closer to shore near the Rancho area, we adjusted our strategy and moved back toward the 4-mile line. As conditions changed, so did our spread. We replaced the long lures with Guacamayo and Chivatito patterns and switched to fresher caballito baits, running them in both short and long positions. The adjustment paid off. While trolling approximately 2 miles offshore near Los Arcos, something first attacked the short bait and immediately afterward struck the short Petrolero lure. After an exciting fight, we successfully brought a beautiful wahoo aboard. We continued trolling toward the Antennas before beginning our return farther offshore, working approximately the 5-mile line. Near Cerro de Arena, we encountered promising striped marlin activity. Several boats in the area were successfully pitching live bait to marlin, so we worked the zone and made several passes, but initially couldn’t convince one to bite. Later, near the Rancho area, Captain Rubén spotted frigate birds circling overhead, a classic sign of feeding activity below. We moved into the area, and the decision paid off when a beautiful striped marlin attacked our long dead bait. After an exciting battle, the marlin was successfully brought alongside ADRENALINA 2.0. The guests took photos with their trophy before the fish was safely released. We returned to Cabo San Lucas Marina at approximately 2:00 PM, completing an excellent eight-hour day on the water.
