Make sure you have a clear understanding of what fish is biting for the season that you are booking. We did so we were not disappointed in our outing.
ANDREW COFFEY
Warm on certain days. Bring long sleeve hooded fishing shirt and sunscreen. Consider headphones or earplugs as the boats can be loud under power trolling for several hours.
Ryan Furman
If your looking for certain species be sure to ask first as not all are likely all year. If you just want a great day on the water anytime is good.
Andrew Rosa
Fantastic day for my 4 sons, 3 caught mahi and 1 caught a sail fish. Would certainly recommend the experience while in San Jose del Cabo.
Gus Grimmig
Be patient and know that the captan and first mate are doing everything they can to give your try a great experience and put you on the fish
Brett Brock
Recommend having your fish prepared at Baja Cantina! They will prepare it several ways…. Fantastic!! Especially if you catch Bonita, have them do it as a sashimi appetizer!
Joshua Duran
You will be hooked once you go fishing in Cabo San Lucas. Highly recommend go deeper charters!!!!!!!
Scott Stevens
Bring Sunscreen, Motion Sickness Meds. Remember, Its Called Fishing not Catching. Enjoy a day on the water, and any fish caught makes it an even better day.

The seas in the Pacific can be a bit rough. If you’re at all susceptible to sea sickness you may want to consider fishing closer to shore.
Juan Gonzales
Yes absolutely, if it’s your first time going deep sea then it would be a good idea to take motion sickness medicine. The fishing is Phenomenal out here!
Anthony Brown
May is still good fishing, but very weather dependent! You can hook up a few marlin and a dorado or two stragglers.
Michael Brandt
Your never gaurteed anything but this crew worked extremely hard trying everything to catch fish and we had the trip of a lifetime catching 3 stripped Marlin
Noe Flaco
The weather was great in April but it is not peak season for marlin! Look for the great reviewed crew, it is better to get a crew that know rather than a fancy boat!
Christy Horne
Weather, water and temperature was perfect! We caught 3 marlin and another fish between two of us. It was perfect!
Nicholas Dyer
Choose months like Sept/Oct/Nov for more prime fishing. We were in the area now and the sole focus wasn’t just fishing so it was to be expected. It was still fun

I have gone with this company on a few (4) occasions and would highly recommend them. Have caught what I was going for every time I have gone.
Mikeal Jenson
I recommend a package that is inclusive.
Don't forget a hat and sunblock.
Bring nausea pills just in case.
Chad Woods
Wonderful experience. Whale watching and fishing from the boat was a bonus. Truly a wonderful experience. you won't regret giving these guys a chance to teach you,

Booking in Cabo is NOT like the States. Everything is extra and your “captain” is actually a pimp for the crew who, I fear, are only working for tips.
David Higgins
I was hoping for Wahoo since it's been 25 years since my last one. We tried but it just didn't happen although we gave it a serious effort.
Jason Ward
Arrive early as parking can be a challenge. Licenses can be purchased at the market on the pier. Wish someone had told us where to go to get them.
Erick Brown
Nice weather. Not too hot, yet. Been on boats in July and got fried and sea sick. This boat is luxury. Spend the extra you won’t regret it.
Curtis Rowland
I would recommend fishing in the summer months if you want to catch a lot of fish and fish in the colder months if you want large species like Marlin.
Timothy Aandahl
February seems to a tough time of year, per Google lol. But, there are fish. Plus the whales are everywhere.
Stephanie Henry
Do your research. We used reviews to pick this boat. Speed & size matter. Def use fishingbooker when in cabo otherwise you will be bombarded at the Marina by vendors.
Scott Jackson
Just get out there...you may not catch fish every outing but when you do your going to be pulling in some awesome fish in Cabo.
Carter Warwick
Captain noted it was the end of the pelagic season. Boat was rigged only for trolling. We would have opted for reef fishing after 4 hours of trolling with no action and few other boats catching fish
Nate Ivie
I alway wear shorts under pants for the early morning ride out and put the pants in a bag when it warms up. Most boats have a spot to stay out of the cool breeze though
Michael Schreiber
Book with the right boat and crew. Read reviews and speak with the captain beforehand and discuss expectations and what you are looking for in your trip.
Tom Helberg
Combine inshore with offshore on your trip to catch a nice variety .
If motion sickness an issue get a bromine patch from your doctor. Works wonders.
