August **hidden content** Dorado Aboard the 43' Riviera Blue Sky
Five anglers headed out from F Dock aboard the 43' Riviera Blue Sky on August 10 for an eight-hour Cabo fishing charter. The group departed at 6:00 AM with lunch aboard, a complimentary dredge in the trolling program and a full fishing window through 2:00 PM. The result was two dorado during a warm August day offshore.

Cabo Fishing Report Conditions Show Warm August Water
August places Cabo San Lucas firmly into its warm-water fishing season.
With ocean temperatures running approximately 84–86°F, the crew had conditions capable of supporting several pelagic species. Dorado are particularly well suited to this period and can move quickly through areas holding bait, current breaks, weed lines or floating debris.
The 6:00 AM departure gave Blue Sky an early start before the strongest afternoon heat. With eight hours available, the crew also had considerably more freedom to search than would be possible on a shorter charter.
Rather than depending on one location, the fishing program could develop throughout the day as conditions changed.
Cabo Charter Fish Presentation Included the Dredge
Blue Sky incorporated the complimentary dredge into the trolling setup.
The dredge works below the surface, presenting the appearance of a concentrated school of bait behind the boat. Combined with the trolling spread, it creates additional movement and a larger underwater target that can attract the attention of passing game fish.
That presentation was part of the search as the 43' Riviera worked Cabo's summer water.
The dorado provided the primary action.
A dorado strike can change the atmosphere aboard a boat almost immediately. These fish are capable of rapid acceleration, surface runs and repeated jumps. Their bright green, yellow and blue coloration can become especially intense as they approach the boat.
For the five anglers aboard Blue Sky, the two dorado provided the day's successful fishing encounters without needing to turn the report into an inflated catch story.
Cabo Fishing Charter Benefits From Eight Hours Offshore
The eight-hour format was an important part of this trip.
Fishing from 6:00 AM through 2:00 PM allowed the crew to continue searching as water, bait and fish activity changed. Lunch aboard also meant the group could remain focused on the offshore experience throughout the charter.
That flexibility is valuable during summer. Warm water may create opportunities for several species, but fish can still be scattered. Giving the crew additional time provides more opportunity to locate productive conditions and adjust the trolling presentation.
August 10 ultimately became a straightforward dorado day aboard the 43' Riviera Blue Sky: five anglers, warm summer water, an eight-hour fishing window and two dorado resulting from the trolling effort.
