We had a great fishing trip today with our guides, Kevin and Martin. On our way out to the ocean, we caught two bonita, which was an exciting start. After that, the wind picked up and most of the trip slowed down, but Kevin and Martin didn’t give up. They switched to Plan B and started targeting roosterfish, and we ended up landing an easy 30-pounder rooster fish!

Kevin and Martin were very nice, helpful, and worked hard the whole trip to make sure we had a good experience. We really appreciate their effort and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a fun fishing trip.

Kevin with FishingBooker set up the trip. Kevin is an american, so there are no communication hurdles to jump. Very attentive, and stayed in touch before and after the trips.
Armondo (sp?) was a great guide. Very good fisherman, and all around nice guy. Plenty of effort was put forth, it resulted in a nice blue marlin the first day, and a fat 60 pound roosterfish the second day, along with a smaller rooster and a jack crevalle.
Overall, a perfect ten on the entire experience. I will book with Kevin and FishingBooker again.

My wife and I fish but usually inshore when together because she is uncomfortable in the ocean if the conditions arent ideal so I was concerned but chose El Pato Lucas mostly based on other great reviews. We have done other fishing charters on vacation but this was by far the best.  Kevin and “the machine” were friendly, knowledgeable, and I believe they were most concerned with us enjoying the experience. They asked us what we wanted to do so we decided to troll with lures and bait and then did some fishing with live bait close to shore They put us on the fish.  Shortly after leaving the dock, I was surprised that we had 5 lines in the water and it didn’t take long to get some hits.
We were offered to fish for marlin (crazy number of boats fishing for them) but chose not to.  We caught a number of fish,  had bonus sighting of whales, and it was absolutely beautiful being on the water in Cabo.
Within 30 minutes of docking, we were eating fresh Mahi Mahi at a restaurant that Kevin recommended. 
We already talked about a repeat trip next December.

I had a great time fishing with my two kiddos.  The weather wasn’t super great due to hurricane Priscilla stirring things up.  We did catch a few fish including 2 skipjacks, 1 bonito, and 1 mackerel.  The radio was pretty quiet all morning so the other boats weren’t catching much either.  The thing that sets this fishing trip above all the other ones I’ve taken in Cabo was the crew.  Kevin, Machine, and Nemo did a great job.  When the bait and/or lures weren’t working they would reel them in and try different colors.  Finally a downrigger was applied and we were able to catch what I noted above.  That’s a sign of a good crew.  I will also note that the Panga that I had originally reserved had to get worked on the day prior and wasn’t able to be used for my trip.  Instead we were upgraded to a 28ft boat free of charge.  Again, excellent customer service.  Going forward I will exclusively use this operation for future fishing trips.

Kevin and Machine went above and beyond to make our first fishing trip in Cabo the absolute best they could. We didn’t have the best conditions due to wind and high waves, but both guys worked to find the fish from start to finish. Being that both guys were utterly disappointed when our day was over, because we were not coming in with trophies or a boat full of fish, showed us they truly cared and they are in this business for the right reasons. I can’t thank you two enough. You gave us so many things…..We were given a history lesson and tour of the area,,,,We caught our first cobias and pompanos….We hooked up with roosters, but being we are inexperienced, we lost them (still exciting)….We almost caught and eagle…We saw rays jumping out of the water…..We saw a shark….We fed a sea lion. I could go on an on….We watched both Kevin and Martin the Machine work tirelessly the entire trip and all the way back to the marina trying to get us a fish….What I am saying is, I will book exclusively with The Machine Sportfishing for the rest of my life, and I believe my son will as well. Great job guys!!!  And, thank you!!!
