If you have any virgin anglers, be sure to give them Dremamine the night before and the morning of. The Pacific side is pretty rough.

First time fishing charter in Cabo. Didn’t know what to expect but everything turned out great. We went 1st of October, most everyone was catching fish. Can’t wait to come back.

Do your research on what company to charter. There are good ones and not so good. Quality makes for a better trip and experience

Question your captain about where your flotation devices are. Ask specifically about the water conditions even if you’re only going 2 to 4 miles out. Be perpared for very rough seas

We had 3 bites during the entire 5 hour trip. We caught those first few by 7:45am and just spent the next 4ish hours puttering around.

Much calmer waters than I expected. 4-5' in 13 second swells are nothing. Really really hot in August so stay in the shade.

Just keep an open mind, each trip is so different and just being out on the water there is always so much to see and learn!

Can be hit or miss - Striped Marlin are typically always around but the Mahi and Tuna can be harder to come by

Make sure you book your trip for the best time of year to catch your targeted fish. There is a lot of information available on line to get that info.

Make sure you choose a captain that wants to catch fish and make sure you go with the captain that you booked, don’t let them switch last minute

Be prepared for the sun and hydrate. If you’re on a smaller boat (30 footer or less) and prone to motion sickness, take dramamine! The waters are super choppy

Don’t half day trips. Full days give you more time to enjoy the water and not be in a rush. Half day is cutting yourself short.

Just to understand that you’re going fishing and that doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll catch anything so try to enjoy the time on the water, the scenery and being with your group.

Vendors before and after your trip can be pretty tricky. You do need the fishing license which is $20 per person. Snacks and drinks are optional and kind of expensive if you buy near the docks.

Take motion sickness meds so you can enjoy. It was very wavy and warm. Sunscreen, water and your meds. And light long sleeves to hold the fish. Some scales burn your skin.

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.
