    Great Trip, Caught a Striped Marlin

    Full Day Trip • 2 adults

    My boyfriend and I had an amazing fishing trip with Captain Cesar! We told him we were hoping to catch a game fish or a larger billfish, and he made it happen, we landed a beautiful striped marlin! Captain Cesar was very experienced, patient, and clearly knew the waters around Cabo extremely well. Fishing for bigger fish can take some patience, but he kept working to put us in the right spot and it was definitely worth the wait. Even though he was running the boat by himself, we felt like we were in great hands the entire time. We had such a great experience and will definitely be back. We’re hoping to come again around November or December since Cesar mentioned that’s an even better time for fishing. Highly recommend!

    Johnny is a wiseman!

    Half Day Trip - 12:00 PM • 2 adults

    knowing that my friend and I are avid fishermen he selected Cesar his most experienced captain to take us out for a half day trip. My friend that is a captain had always wanted to catch a Rooster fish. In less than 30 minutes he had a big rooster on a light tackle rod. He caught 2 more. I caught a Jack and a bull dorado that we ate at Chachita restaurant next to the dock. The service was excellent and very friendly, with constant excellent communication before the trip. Johnny’s the best! Always available to answer any questions and provide great advice. I would give them more than 5 stars if I could. Best panga trip ever!

    Excellent trip!

    Half Day Trip • 2 adults

    We caught 2 decent size Mahi Mahi in ~3 hours! We booked a 5 hour trip while sea condition is little rough for my kid so we decided to return earlier. Johnny and Nacho are super helpful before and after the trip. Captain Cesar and are very experienced fishmen! They changed tactics several times during the trip to try their best to catch fishes. They took care of us very well. After taking care of our goals in ~3 hrs, we decided to come back to the dock to wrapping up the great trip! Good people! Highly recommend! Thanks.

    Awesome fishing trip

    Half Day Trip • 1 adult

    Today I did the morning fishing trip and it was a blast. Johnny was waiting for me and we set out on our trip at the perfect time. The trip was smooth, fun and an overall success. We caught 2 mahi mahi within 30 minutes!! It was unreal. We spent the rest of the trip trying to catch other species and ended up catching a huge needle fish. No complaints at all and Johnny really made this a memorable experience. He is a hardworker and always made sure he was doing his best to hook us onto some fish. Strongly recommended! I’ll be back no doubt.

    We fished hard all day but it was really slow. Captain Johnny was very encouraging and knowledgeable. On the way back in and maybe a little disappointed, Johnny made one more stop to try for a rooster. Ended up with a big one!

    Johnny was a really good guide and super friendly. We caught one small Mahi Mahi. We had a couple of other good bites. It just wasn't our day. It didn’t sound like the other boats were doing much either

    We had a fantastic time with Captain Johnny. We magically hooked an enormous blue marlin that we fought with but it cut the line, it was absolutely stunning and an experience we will never forget. Later we hooked and reeled in a 40lb mahi that we had cooked for us at a nearby restaurant at the harbor, it was amazing. It was a bucket list dream for my partner, and truly a wonderful experience.

    Made a plan prior to arriving and we actually exuded it unlike other bookings that just do what they want. Jonny knew the area like the back of his hand. He has a fisherman’s eye like no other. Thanks again Jonny. See you again!

What's biting with Blue Sea Sportfishing in Cabo San Lucas

The humidity and temperature drop, so you'll want to make the most of it. Don't miss the WON Tuna Jackpot at the beginning of the month, not the chance to land Striped Marlin, Dorado, and Wahoo, among more.
