Top notch boat and crew. Went out on New Year’s day with Juan and 1st mate, Luis. Boat is super clean and well maintained. Juan asked me first thing what I wanted to catch and I told him ‘tuna/marlin and roosterfish’. I caught a 150+lb striped marlin early and saw a 2nd that we couldn’t hook up. My son brought a Dorado to the boat then we trolled in the midst of hundreds of porpoises for yellowfin. No luck with the tuna so dove into the surf and quickly caught our Roosterfish. Great boat and crew and they know what they are doing. I will definitely book the Bluetooth next time I’m in Cabo. Gracia, Juan…

Several Mahi and a large Striped Marlin before 10:00, but the action dropped off as the sun got up. The crew remained focused through the heat (many crews don’t). The boat was clean and the gear was in good condition. Captain Juan and Luis were very engaging and really full of energy. Overall, one of the best crews that our family had over the last 20 years.
The Marlin was 150 pounds, put up a 35 minute fight and was boated,  photographed, and released. We will hire the Blue Tail on our next visit.

Honestly, we had no idea what to expect booking online blindly and heading to Mexico. We’ve heard horror stories about captains and guides from friends but didn’t have enough time to do sufficient research. We are big time into fishing and travel all over the place to check our bucket list species. I can’t tell you in words how incredible this trip was. We told them specifically what we wanted to target And these guys did not disappoint. I’ve been fishing since I was about one years old and I know you don’t always get what you want or even part of it. This trip was a dream come true and we will certainly be booking them again for years to come. What a great group of people.

Ok, the morning started off as beautiful as it could be… Views that are amazing… then we get out and snagged a couple Dorados (Mahi) then the wind picks up and we have 8’ swells and the boat was rocking, but that didn’t stop us…. (we did head back because we were a little seasick) but the captain and deck hand took us closer to shore and I kid you not, right as I told them to take us back in they see 2 100 lb+ marlin on the top of the water… We through out some live bait and within 2 minutes we hooked this 95 inch gem that will be mounted in my office in the next 90 days….

Seriously.. It was an awesome trip and we will be back!

We had a great time.  The water was a little rough, but it didn’t matter, because we were catching.  We met up at 6:00, were on the boat by 6:30, and heading out of the marina.  We stopped to get some ice and bait, and then we were gone.  We went around the point and fished along the shoreline in the Pacific.  We never went too far from shore, which kind of surprised me, we could always see land (probably no more than 1 mile or 2 away).  But that is where the fish were.  We targeted Mahi Mahi at first.  We all hooked up on a Mahi Mahi (there were 4 of us fishing), and we all caught one before the sun came up over the horizon.  We continued trolling along the coastline for a while, and ended up with 14 Mahi Mahi’s (a few were small, and we threw them back, and 1 monster spit the hook while the 1st mate was trying to get him with the gaff).  Then the 1st mate switched lures, the boat turned around to head back down the coast and we targeted Marlin.  My 14 yr old hooked up on a 7 foot striped marlin that gave him a good fight, we spotted some dolphins that were out hunting, and we followed them around for a while hoping to hook into something else that was hunting the same school as the dolphins, and my 16 yr old hooked up on a yellowfin tuna, and then the icing on the cake, my 73 yr old dad hooked up on an 8’9” Blue Marlin.  Unfortunately that one swallowed the hook, so we couldn’t release him.  If you ever get a chance to see a Blue Marlin in the water, they are SO COOL… it looked like it was hooked up to a battery, the colors were so vibrant and bright, it looked like it was glowing!  Luckily, that was at the end of the day, so we trolled our way back into the marina.
