Triple Mahi Mahi Trolling Afternoon

Title: Mahi Mahi & Striped Marlin Double – 5-Hour Pacific Trip (August 29) Description: On the morning of August 29, ADRENALINA 1 departed Cabo San Lucas at 8:00 AM for a 5-hour fishing charter, heading toward the Pacific side. We began trolling approximately 3 miles offshore, working parallel to the coastline. While passing the waters off Rancho San Lucas, the first action came when a mahi mahi (dorado) attacked our Google Eye rigger bait. After an exciting fight, we successfully landed the fish and brought it aboard. We continued trolling until reaching the waters off Margarita, where we turned around and began our return toward Cabo. While passing El Suspiro, a striped marlin appeared behind the spread and began following a purple trolling lure. The fish eventually committed, resulting in a solid hookup and another exciting battle before being successfully brought to the boat. We returned to Cabo San Lucas Marina at approximately 1:00 PM with a mahi mahi and striped marlin, completing an excellent five-hour fishing adventure.

Title: Double Mahi Mahi Success & Yellowfin Tuna Schools – August 28 Description: On August 28, ADRENALINA 1 headed toward the Pacific side for an 8-hour offshore fishing charter, working approximately 3 miles off the coastline. As we reached the waters near Los Arcos, the first action of the day came when a mahi mahi (dorado) aggressively struck our famous Petrolero lure. After an exciting fight, we successfully landed the fish and brought it aboard. The bite continued quickly. Just 15 minutes later, a second mahi mahi attacked a Google Eye bait, resulting in another solid hookup and our second dorado of the day. Later, we began working our way back toward Cabo, trolling approximately 4 miles parallel to the coastline. While passing off the Lighthouse, we encountered a school of yellowfin tuna. We worked the area and attempted to entice the tuna into biting, but despite their presence, the fish remained selective and we were unable to hook one. We continued back toward Cabo San Lucas Marina, arriving at approximately 2:10 PM with two beautiful mahi mahi aboard. Fishing Strategy & Conditions: * Boat: ADRENALINA 1 * Duration: 8 hours * Pacific-side trolling * Worked approximately 3–4 miles offshore * Petrolero lure * Google Eye bait * Yellowfin tuna schools located near the Lighthouse Summary: * ? 2 mahi mahi (dorado) landed * ?

Double Striped Marlin Release – Excellent Billfish Action (August 27) Description On August 27, ADRENALINA 1 departed Cabo San Lucas at 7:00 AM for an 8-hour fishing charter, returning at 3:00 PM. We had two anglers and three crew members aboard and headed east in search of offshore action. At approximately 3 miles off Pedregal, we deployed a complete trolling spread consisting of four artificial lures—a Guacamayo, purple lure, pink lure, and the always-productive Petrolero—along with four natural baits: two ballyhoo, one jurel (jack), and one caballito. We also ran two teasers/spreader bars to attract billfish into the spread. While fishing near Cerros de Arena, we spotted a striped marlin cruising on the surface. The crew immediately began presenting natural baits to the fish until it finally committed. The marlin attacked the caballito, producing a solid hookup. At the same time, a second striped marlin appeared behind another bait, giving us the possibility of a double hookup. The second fish followed the presentation but refused to bite. After an exciting fight, we successfully brought the first striped marlin alongside ADRENALINA 1 and completed a safe release. We continued trolling, and the action remained steady. A wahoo attacked one of our natural baits but unfortunately failed to stay connected. Working parallel to the coastline through the Margarita and Los Arcos areas, we then had a mahi mahi (dorado) strike the spread. The fish hooked up briefly but managed to throw the hook during the fight. Later, we spotted another striped marlin on the surface. Once again, the crew quickly switched to sight-casting/pitching a caballito directly to the fish. This marlin committed to the bait, and after another exciting battle, we successfully brought it alongside the boat and released our second striped marlin of the day. We returned to Cabo San Lucas Marina at 3:00 PM after eight hours of excellent offshore action. Fishing Strategy * Boat: ADRENALINA 1 * Duration: 8 hours – 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM * 2 anglers / 3 crew members * Fishing began approximately 3 miles off Pedregal * Route included Cerros de Arena, Margarita and Los Arcos * Guacamayo, purple, pink and Petrolero lures * 2 ballyhoo, jurel and caballito * 2 teasers / spreader bars * Surface marlin targeted with direct natural-bait presentations Summary * ? 2 striped marlin caught and successfully released * ? 1 additional striped marlin raised but did not bite * ⚡ 1 wahoo strike – lost * ? 1 mahi mahi (dorado) hooked – lost * ? Both striped marlin successfully targeted after being spotted on the surface * ? Caballito was the key bait for the marlin * ? 8-hour trip aboard ADRENALINA 1 An excellent day of technical billfish fishing aboard ADRENALINA 1. Spotting marlin on the surface and immediately presenting caballito proved to be the winning strategy, producing two beautiful striped marlin releases along with additional wahoo and dorado action. Another outstanding day of sportfishing in Cabo San Lucas. ????
