Cabo Fishing Report – Yellowfin Tuna and Dorado Aboard Blue Water
1 Yellowfin Tuna and 1 Dorado Caught
Charter Date: August 10, 2026
Charter Length: 6 Hours
Boat: 35' Riviera Blue Water
Captain: Oscar
Catch: 1 Yellowfin Tuna and 1 Dorado
Dredge: Yes
August 10 produced a quality two-species offshore fishing day aboard the 35-foot Riviera Blue Water with Captain Oscar. The six-hour Cabo charter finished with one yellowfin tuna and one dorado, giving the anglers two very different fights during the same trip.
Warm summer water surrounded Cabo San Lucas, with the original charter report recording water temperatures near 88°F. Conditions were sunny, winds were approximately 4 mph, and waves were around four feet.
Yellowfin Tuna Adds Power to the Cabo Fishing Day
Yellowfin tuna provided the heavier test of the day. Tuna are powerful fish that can make sustained runs and force anglers to maintain steady pressure throughout the fight.
Landing one during a six-hour charter added an important summer species to the Blue Water's catch record.
The dorado brought a completely different dimension to the trip. Known for aggressive strikes and brilliant coloration, dorado are among the most recognizable offshore game fish encountered around Cabo.
Having both species cooperate meant the anglers experienced two distinct styles of offshore fishing without needing a long-range charter.

Dredge Fishing During a Cabo Summer Charter
A dredge was incorporated into the offshore presentation throughout the six-hour trip. The purpose of a dredge is to create additional underwater movement resembling a concentrated group of baitfish.
Captain Oscar and the crew continued searching productive water while paying attention to the offshore signs that can lead to feeding game fish.
With summer water temperatures around 88°F, Cabo's offshore environment can hold several highly sought-after pelagic species. Conditions can change from one day to another, however, which makes every charter a new search rather than a guaranteed repeat of the previous day's results.
Six Hours of Cabo Fishing Produces Two Species
Fishing Results
Yellowfin Tuna: 1
Dorado: 1
Total Game Fish: 2
The strength of this August 10 trip was its variety. Instead of producing multiple fish from a single species, the Blue Water recorded both yellowfin tuna and dorado.
For anglers researching Cabo San Lucas fishing during August, this charter provides another real-world snapshot of what happened during one summer morning rather than a prediction of what every trip will produce.
Six hours aboard the 35-foot Riviera Blue Water, a dredge in the presentation and two prized offshore species combined for a successful day with Captain Oscar.
The final fishing record for August 10, 2026 was straightforward: one yellowfin tuna, one dorado and another memorable summer fishing trip on the waters outside Cabo San Lucas.
