At first I was mildly disappointed due to the boat being a bit smaller than I figured and being told we weren’t going after our target fish I had booked.

However I had been told the waters were unseasonably cold by a snorkel guide the day before so i believed the captain (Carlos) when he told me the reason was that the target fish weren’t going to hit in cold water.

We ended up going for rooster fish and wahoo and I had the best day of fishing I’ve had in years. My forearms are still sore from fighting all day. He cleaned them on the boat and I left with about as much in clean filets as I could carry off the boat.

It was affordable for what prices are for a full day of chartered fishing , and brewskis were provided. Can’t recommend enough.

I’m a part time commercial fisherman in Hilo Hawaii, so frequently target most of the same pelagic fish available in Cabo.  I messaged David it would be cool to catch a rooster fish.  I had a half day to fish before my group arrived so I booked a morning on the panga.  Carlos and David were great the entire trip.  I arrived a little early, we fueled up,  stopped for a license, and grabbed bait on the way out of the harbor.  We slow trolled live baits, went 3 for 5; catching 2 Sierra and 1 rooster.  Mission complete!  Couldn’t have asked for anything else.

My sons and I went out with El Capitan Carlos for a half day fishing trip. We trawled using lures and also used bait (sardines). We caught Amberjack, Sierra and even caught a Roosterfish trawling on the way back. Carlos has 30 years of experience fishing the waters off San Jose Del Cabo!!!

Captain David and first mate Freddy were a good crew.  We caught two small groups, two snapper, and a Sierra.  I would recommend them for more experienced fishermen.  This was our first time and generally they would just hand us the pole and then tell us what we did wrong after we did it.  They were very friendly and accommodating and I think if we had known what to ask them we would have.  For example, we left the location where we were catching fish and headed out into the sea.  We found out later we trolling but didn’t catch anything and didn’t do anything but listen to them talk in Spanish and watch the sea go by.  I’m sure they would have done whatever we’d asked but I didn’t realize we were even fishing until later.  Again, great crew for experienced fisherman but an inexperienced crew for new fisherman, if that makes sense.

Captain and crew were awesome. Great time on the water. We did not land fish (except one we used for bait and a shark released
At the boat) but we had a blast.
