We decided to try our hand at Marlin, and after spotting some, having some excitement chasing them with a bunch of other boats around us, we sadly didn’t grab any. some days are good some days are bad. That’s why it’s fishing!
However, after striking out with Marlon our captain then took us over to shore and we pulled in rooster and needlefish. super fun trip.
some information for people doing this for the first time: there’s a station at the marina number 5, and it’s a little confusing. nobody seems to be able to tell you where to go, but if you go to that gate and ask for your Captain by name someone should be able to direct you. the 23-ft boats are small enough that there isn’t really a bathroom, so prepare for that. bring some snacks, and if you’re looking for a more corporate environment this probably isn’t for you. You will buy live bait once you’re on the boat and in the ocean. another boat will come up and get it to you, so plan ahead and bring cash. also cash for tip. we put both our boating experience and the fishing licenses on the credit card, which was pretty easy but you’ll want cash for the rest. there is a fee for putting it on the card, so if you can pay in all cash that would be a great option too. have an idea of what kind of fish you’d like to go for before you get there, our captain wasn’t very helpful on what was biting, just said everyday is different. so they’re going to let you lead so have an idea of what you want. Even the small fish are big! We did the sunrise half day, and just going out on the ocean at that time of day was gorgeous. also even in in a little bit of choppy seeds with not a ton of sun it wasn’t very cold And we were good in shorts and tennis shoes all day. really you can wear whatever shoes you want on the boat, flip flops and Crocs and tennis shoes were on our feet.

Absolutely great day out! We did a 5 hour afternoon trip and it was beautiful weather. The skipper, Alvaro really knows his stuff. It was very exiting to see when the schools come around and the marlin are there. A few boats get thrrr to through the lures or live bait in.
We got one on and it was a massive battle the marlin just keep taking line, I kept going and as time went on the fish began to tire and we got it up on boat. His guess was it’s about a 140 pound marlin. I was so stoked! Big moment in my life. Thank you Cabo mahi mahi for a great experience. Cheers Aussie Tim

We went out fishing with Cesar on a half day charter and would 100% recommend it if you are in Cabo. Within the first 15 minutes we had action, and we were hooked up almost the entire trip! We caught Mahi, many Tuna, and Bonita as well as a few other fish. Following the trip we had our catch prepared at La Chatita, right where you leave and return to the marina. The food was brilliant and the entire experience with Cesar and Cabo Mahi Mahi was amazing. I cannot recommend it enough and would definitely book with this group again when I return to Cabo!

We booked an 8 hour day trip. We arrived at 6:20 met our crew…a father/son team named Cesar and Cesar. They are lifelong Cabo residents and fished the area their whole lives. They knew where to find the fish! We caught 4 striped marlin and would have caught more had we not run out of bait! Cesar and Cesar knew how to find the fish, and, being in a smaller boat, could get to the hot spots fasters!
The only downsides to our day…we had to bring our own snacks, water, and cerveza and there was no toilet on the boat. Still, I woukd recommend this biat and this crew as we outfished the larger boats! It was truly an unforgettable day!

Was a solo angler booking last minute on a trip that I wasnt planning to fish on.

There offer fit my budget and they were abke to meet my request to het me my first bucket list striped Marlin that morning.

Captain Cesar and first mate Alonso worked very hard to get me on the fish and they did a great job doing so!
