From the lighthouse stretch to Pozo Cota, and occasionally near the Arch and towards the Sea of Cortez, they make their presence known. However, the bite is slow at the Golden Gate, and other offshore spots have not been very productive. **Tuna:** Schools of Yellowfin Tuna are a very rare sight with current water temperatures keeping them out of range. **Mahi Mahi:** While the Mahi Mahi catch has been less abundant compared to previous weeks, anglers are still reeling in a few of these vibrant fish inshore and several miles offshore. Trolling with lures and bait continues to be an effective method, especially when targeting Marlin, leading to occasional Mahi Mahi hookups as well **Additional Information:** Roosterfish continue to actively bite along the inshore stretch from El Pedregal to Diamante. The variety in catches persists, with sierra being hooked regularly, occasional amberjack north of Cabo, and both Marlin and Mahi Mahi making their presence known in the area. Despite the changing weather conditions, our experienced crews are prepared to make the most of the opportunities presented. We'll continue to venture out. **Tips:** To enhance your fishing experience, aim for an early start to take advantage of the freshest bait, as those who depart the Marina first often have the best selection.

Maintaining your tackle in top-notch condition and regularly checking your rigging are key factors in achieving a high catch rate. Prepare your gear and anticipate a memorable fishing journey in the waters of Cabo San Lucas!
