  A dream fulfilled!

  Full Day Trip on May 26, 2026 • 1 adult

  Captain Martin and Cristobal were friendly and knowledgable... and most importantly found the fish! Hooked a big Hammerhead, released it boatside. Then hooked a striped marlin, it made a few spectacular leaps them made a big run at the boat and when it turned, the line was cut. Next we hooked a big Mahi and landed it. A bit later, Striped Marlin #2 was on... we got it on the boat... 105" measurement... an absolute dream come true!! Later on the way in, caught and landed a big Jack Crevalle and hooked another shark. It was a perfect 8 hr trip... the Fin Addict provided an amazing day on the water!!

  Hidden gem, top shelf crew!

  Full Day Trip on December 26, 2025 • 5 adults • 1 child

  Cristobal is in a class of his own within the Cabo sports fishing community. You won’t find a more gifted commander. He had us on Dorado and Marlin all day with immaculate gear! His second, Arturo Luna is a master technician- he knows the waters, the fish, the tackle, never stops working, and has a rare gift with people. Few public boats have a third hand, and this is one of them. Kudos to the Operator Martin for adding Jonatan (“Tilin”), a young, knowledgeable apprentice trusted to help with the most critical work. So impressive. Hope he gets the “muñeca” from the rosca during Reyes! Book this boat immediately.

  Good fishing once underway — dockside by experience needs work

  Half Day Trip on December 28, 2025 • 4 adults

  Overall, solid fishing but the pre-trip experience needs improvement. The boat itself was well set up and the deckhand worked hard and did a good job fishing. We caught fish and the core on-the-water experience was good. Where things fell apart was before we ever left the dock. There was confusion about what was included versus à la carte. Drinks were listed as included when we booked, but the crew said they were not, which led to us being pushed to buy food and drinks from a marina vendor at very high prices. We were also unexpectedly sent to purchase fishing licenses, which required cash we hadn’t planned for. None of this was clearly explained in advance, and it created unnecessary stress at the start of the trip — especially for a family. We eventually resolved things by clarifying the booking and the crew covered bait in place of the listed beverages, but it shouldn’t have required that kind of back-and-forth. In hindsight, a more all-inclusive operator with clear upfront communication (including cash needs, fish processing options, and what is truly included) may offer better overall value, even at a higher price point. If the operator improves pre-trip communication and aligns the booking description with dockside reality, this would be a much stronger experience.
