Such an amazing trip landed a few days ago and allot of people talking about slow fishing conditions that was not a problem for our crew. First fish nice yellow fin 15 min in but what was a pleasant shock the next strike not even 20 min later was a 250 + lbs Blue Marlin jumping just like he knew it was show time that iconic blue marlin jump then the hour and a half fight back and forth captain following every movement perfectly to get us a nice picture along side the boat and a beautiful safe release. All equipment was in top working condition lunch and drinks well stocked and captain and first mate beyond amazing will be back.

We went out with my wife and two teenage boys for a day of fishing and had a great experience overall. We managed to hook a nice yellowfin tuna, and even had a second one on the line that gave us a real fight—but unfortunately, we couldn’t get it to the boat. Outside of that, the fishing was a bit slow, but the crew worked hard the entire time, doing everything they could to get us on more fish. The boat itself was spotless and exactly as pictured—comfortable, spacious, and very well-kept. Even though the bite wasn’t hot, we had a great time on the water and would definitely book with them again!

We left out at 6 am on a Sunday morning and heard the fishing had been good the days prior to our trip, so we super excited! First, the water was super choppy and rough so we didn’t need out very far. Our trip started out slow, with no action until about 4-5 hrs in. We found a hot spot, landing 3 smaller Mahi Mahi and two small Tuna. Our trip went dead after that, no more action the remainder of the day. The boat crew did their best to put us on fish, but the water was just super rough and less than enjoyable. All in all, it was a fun trip for our first time fishing in Cabo! I hope we have better luck next time!

My son and I booked a full-day trip 7/30/2025.  Be sure to follow the directions/info they send you the day before the trip so you don’t get scammed by the dudes on the way to the dock. Met Capt. Ruben at the dock and first-mate Freddy on the boat. Both are friendly and knowledgeable.  Boat was spotless clean/comfortable and they have high quality equipment on board

We trolled the entire time right out of The Arch. Was slow to start, but once we got out the deep water spot where other boats were fishing, got a big blue marlin on for a few seconds but after one jump it spit the hook.  Took a while but hooked up again with nice smaller stripped marlin but it also got off.  My son was pretty bummed but the Capt. and Freddie kept at it.  No more bites until we started heading back in and got a smaller bull shark on the live bait line.  20ft from the boat it broke off also. 

We’ve been out with many guides on both fresh and salt water trips, but it was not our day to get that classic, back of the boat marlin pic my son wanted so bad, but overall a great day on the water and good experience with Capt. Ruben and Freddie. I’d definitely recommend this crew if you’re looking for a trip out of Cabo.

We took 2 full day trips with the Blue Tail II crew, and while we didn’t catch a lot of fish, or a Marlin, we caught an awesome 8ft sailfish and an equally beautiful 5ft Mahi. We wanted to go after the big fish and were fine with less action and getting a couple big ones. Wish we got the marlin, but we had 4-5 chances and it got off the line.

The crew was great both days. They changed lures and bait, navigated us to where the fish were, and kept trying different methods to get us fish. Very friendly. The rods and reels were all high quality and the boat was fine. It had a shaded seating area for us to get some protection from the elements, a toilet and a cabin. They provided cold drinks and lunch as well. I would definitely recommend Cabo Sportfishing Crew and the Blue Tail II.
