Dress warm(waterproof jacket) in case of weather change and could get windy. No bathroom on boat. I asked the captain that I was not interested in Marlin and wanted to catch fish to eat. They can take you elsewhere to fish.

It was Fun, 4 hours might be too short 8 was a long day. Its fishing you might hook up or you might not ! Saw a whale, had Pelicans and a sea Lion jump on the back of the boat to get at the live well where the bait was stored. We let him eat it, cause he was pretty big and grumpy.

You get what you pay for....so if you want a sightseeing tour where you might catch fish go for pricepoint.....but if you want to catch fish with top notch fishermen and gear do a little research on who you're going with before booking......I wasted money trying to fish everyday on some pangas but I experienced broken gear poor equipment and disorganization

You dont have to go out all day, if your the avid fisherman you can, we where wore out after 5 hours. great fishing.

read the instructions carefully and follow diligently. theres a lot of oppurtunists around the Marina, and they gave clear directions of how to avoid them
Keith Blum
go with this crew. they were so experianced and capable. We all caught fish and they helped throughout the whole day. couldnt be happier.
Nico Pronk
Beware of the surprises of having to pay more than you thought the trip was advertised for. Like the fishing lisence and having to buy your own live bait. Silly stuff, to take advantage of tourists
Cory Collins
if you’re determined to go after a specific species, stick with it. sometimes the captain will try to talk you into something else that’s hotter but the fish you want are there.
Richard Simoncic
Be very clear with the captain what fish species you want to catch. It sets a better expectation. Also discuss with the captain what is biting and where so you can adjust your expectations.

If you get seasick, take Dramamine 24 hour the day before, and the morning of, and make sure not to show up to your trip hungover!
Gene Bivens
Go in the morning. I went in the afternoon and the seas were rough. We didn’t catch anything until the end.

Book 2 trips per vacation. When fish have lock jaw one day it doesn’t last for long .
I have confidence in capt Andy and would not hesitate to fish with him again
Todd McGregor
This trip was great because they took care of the licenses and bait And great communication for where to meet and what food and drinks on the boat.

DO IT! Be patient, remember your on a boat in Mexico and enjoy your time out on water. Listen to your Captain + Crew, bring a good attitude and enjoy.
Ron Dykstra
poor equipment it was supposed to be a 5 hr trip it was only 4 hrs Captain asked for food And Beer no way to gaf the fish

OCTOBER! All the big tournaments happen then and everyone is out pre-fishing and livening up everything in the water. You won’t be disappointed.

I would ask whether the fish bite more in the am than the pm. our pm all inclusive was slow biting but we still caught Marlin and Mahi Mahi.
William Moyer
Hire these guys. This was my second time to Charter a boat with them. Both times were a great experience.
David Solomon
I would definitely recommend going in October and November when the water is warmer. you have a better chance of catching big marlin and sailfish.
Richard Easley
Fishing was slow for us because we ONLY wanted Marlin and it was not the season for Marlin when we were there in April. We did, however, catch skipjack Tuna and Mako shark and they DID NOT DISAPPOINT!
Todd Belk
dont be worried if its pouring down rain. we had the best time still and caught so many fish!

Cabo has great fishing. typically short runs. Stay flexible and you’ll have a great time.
Raul Cañoles
buscar in bite de almenos 26 pies, para llegar a los lugarew donde estan los marlin.
Nicole Miller
Verify the boat you book because the boat i thought we were getting we did not.
Dave Evers
Let them know what fish you're interested in, but be flexible for what's biting
Darrell Street
Fish with captain Gilbert and Joel from the Cabo sportfishing fleet. you wont be disappointed.
