Early Morning Striped Marlin Release (Ju

On July 30, ADRENALINA departed Cabo San Lucas for an exciting 8-hour offshore fishing adventure, heading toward Cabeza de Ballena under calm seas and beautiful blue-water conditions. We began the day trolling a spread that included two Rapalas (gold/pink and gray/blue) along with three Hoochies in pink, green/yellow, and the ever-productive Flying Fish pattern. The action started almost immediately. At 6:47 AM, just minutes after setting the lines, a mahi mahi exploded on the Flying Fish Hoochie, but managed to throw the hook. Seconds later, another dorado attacked the pink Hoochie, only to come unbuttoned as well. The rods stayed busy as three skipjack tuna piled onto the Hoochies, providing plenty of action before being safely released. At approximately 7:40 AM, while trolling off Arroyo del Tiburón, another mahi mahi crushed the Flying Fish Hoochie. After a spirited fight, the crew successfully landed the fish. Only minutes later, two more dorado struck the spread—one again on the Flying Fish Hoochie and another on the pink Hoochie—but both managed to escape. The persistence paid off once more. At around 8:45 AM, while passing La Bufadora, another beautiful mahi mahi hammered the pink Hoochie, giving us our second successful catch of the day. Later in the trip, while returning toward Cabeza de Ballena, we received a report of yellowfin tuna feeding beneath a pod of dolphins near the Fiesta Americana area. We changed course to 160° and spent approximately 90 minutes working the school with multiple presentations, but the tuna remained reluctant to bite. To top off an outstanding day, our mate Luis prepared fresh mahi mahi ceviche (callos de mahi mahi) using the day’s catch, allowing everyone to enjoy an incredible meal while relaxing aboard. The trip perfectly combined exciting fishing, fresh seafood, and time to enjoy the beautiful waters of Cabo San Lucas. ⸻ Conditions * Calm seas throughout the trip * Crystal-clear blue water * Excellent mahi mahi activity * Yellowfin tuna feeding with dolphins * Ideal weather for offshore fishing ⸻ Summary * ? 2 mahi mahi landed * ? 3 additional mahi mahi hooked but lost * ? 3 skipjack tuna caught and released * ?

On the afternoon of July 30, we headed south of Divorce Beach and began trolling approximately 3 miles offshore. Our spread consisted of four artificial lures—a Petrolero, lime green, blue Flying Fish, and purple-and-white lure—along with a rigged ballyhoo (rigger bait). Shortly after lines went in, a mahi mahi (dorado) aggressively struck the purple lure. After an exciting fight, we successfully landed the fish, giving our anglers an excellent start to the afternoon. We continued trolling about 3 miles parallel to the coastline, and as we reached the waters off La Bufadora, a wahoo exploded on the rigged ballyhoo. The fish made a blistering run but managed to cut through the bait before a solid hookup could be established, escaping after a thrilling strike. With one quality fish landed and another exciting opportunity, we returned to Cabo San Lucas Marina after another enjoyable afternoon offshore. ⸻ Conditions: * Calm afternoon seas * Excellent blue-water conditions * Productive waters south of Divorce Beach and La Bufadora * Trolling with artificial lures and rigged ballyhoo ⸻ Summary: Another successful afternoon aboard ADRENALINA featuring: * 1 mahi mahi (dorado) landed * 1 wahoo strike lost * Dorado caught on a purple trolling lure * Wahoo struck a rigged ballyhoo (rigger bait) A fun afternoon on the water with quality action and another reminder of the incredible variety of offshore fishing available in Cabo San Lucas. ????

On the morning of July 28, we began the trip trolling live skipjack tuna (baby skipjack) off Cabeza de Ballena until 8:15 AM, but despite ideal conditions, we didn’t receive any strikes. After finishing with the live bait, we switched to our trolling spread, deploying a combination of artificial lures and rigged ballyhoo (rigger bait). We worked our way east, trolling approximately 4.5 miles offshore and following the coastline all the way to Palmilla, but the bite remained slow. On our return toward Cabo, the action finally picked up off the Fiesta Americana area when a wahoo exploded on the rigged ballyhoo. Unfortunately, after a blistering run, the fish managed to throw the hook and escape. Shortly afterward, a mahi mahi (dorado) aggressively struck one of our Petrolero lures. After a fun fight, the fish was successfully brought alongside the boat and released in excellent condition. We finished the morning by returning to Cabo San Lucas Marina after another enjoyable day on the water. ⸻ Conditions: * Calm morning seas * Excellent blue-water conditions * Productive waters from Cabeza de Ballena to Palmilla * Wahoo and mahi mahi activity on the return run ⸻ Summary: Another enjoyable offshore charter featuring: * 1 mahi mahi (dorado) caught and released * 1 wahoo strike lost * Trolled live baby skipjack, artificial lures, and rigged ballyhoo * Covered productive waters from Cabeza de Ballena to Palmilla Even on a slower morning, persistence paid off with an exciting mahi mahi release and a thrilling wahoo strike, highlighting the variety of offshore fishing available in Cabo San Lucas. ????
