Trip Summary

Triple Mahi Mahi Afternoon – Pacific Dorado Action (August 30) Description On the afternoon of August 30, ADRENALINA 1 departed Cabo San Lucas at 2:30 PM, heading toward the Pacific side for an afternoon fishing trip. While trolling past the Lighthouse, the first action came when a mahi mahi (dorado) attacked a purple trolling lure. The fish was successfully hooked and landed, putting our first mahi mahi aboard. We continued trolling along the Pacific coastline, and while passing the waters off Rancho San Lucas, another dorado entered the spread. This time, the fish struck a blue Flying Fish feather, resulting in our second mahi mahi of the afternoon. The crew continued working the Pacific side until reaching Margarita, where we turned around and began the return toward Cabo. The action wasn’t over yet. While passing Los Arcos, a third mahi mahi attacked the purple lure. We successfully landed the fish, completing a three-dorado afternoon aboard ADRENALINA 1. We returned to Cabo San Lucas Marina at approximately 7:00 PM with three mahi mahi aboard.
