Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Report

Cabo Fishing Report – 12 Yellowfin Tuna and 2 Skipjack Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charter and Tours 32' Luhrs Blue Star – Cabo Fishing Report July 11, 2023 Returning customer Russell booked eight hours aboard the 32' Luhrs Blue Star with Captain Jorge on July 11, 2023. His three-person group from the Sacramento, California area departed Cabo at 6:00 AM with a full day available for offshore fishing. The decision produced one of the better kinds of fishing reports: sustained action. Blue Star finished with 12 yellowfin tuna plus two skipjack, which were released.

He was a returning customer. For this trip, Russell and two additional guests selected an eight-hour charter aboard Blue Star. Captain Jorge departed at 6:00 AM with enough time to make the search for offshore fish a major part of the day. That additional range becomes particularly useful when yellowfin tuna are the target. Tuna can sometimes be approximately 40 miles offshore, although their actual location changes with bait, current and water conditions. The farther the search extends, the more important it becomes to remember that travel time is required in both directions. Cabo Fishing Finds Yellowfin Tuna Captain Jorge's search eventually produced the opportunity the group needed. Once the tuna were located, Blue Star was able to turn that opportunity into repeated action. The final yellowfin count reached 12. Tuna are powerful fish. Their fights often lack the spectacular jumping associated with marlin, but they compensate with speed, endurance and the ability to pull hard below the surface. For three anglers, 12 yellowfin created multiple opportunities rather than leaving the entire charter dependent on a single fish. Fishing Report Includes Two Skipjack Releases The day also produced two skipjack. Both were released. Blue Sky Cabo releases skipjack and bonito rather than treating them as retained table fish. The yellowfin tuna represented the primary catch for the charter. This distinction is useful in historical reports because a total fish count does not always explain what happened during the day. Russell's group encountered 14 fish across two species. Twelve were yellowfin tuna. Two were skipjack and returned to the water. Cabo Report Shows Why Charter Length Matters Five hours and eight hours can produce very different fishing strategies. A shorter charter limits how far a captain can reasonably search because enough time must always remain for the return to Cabo San Lucas Marina. Eight hours gives the captain additional flexibility. Captain Jorge had a 6:00 AM to 2:00 PM window on July 11. That meant more time to locate fish and, importantly, more time to continue fishing once a productive opportunity was found. Russell's catch demonstrates why anglers specifically interested in offshore species often choose the longer option. Fishing Report Records Summer Conditions Historical conditions provide context for the day. Air temperature was around 80°F during the early morning and climbed toward approximately 88°F later in the charter. Water temperature was approximately 80°F. Winds were generally around 8–13 mph. The moon was a waning crescent with approximately 37% illumination. Conditions alone do not produce a dozen yellowfin. Captain decisions, searching, bait, current and the ability to stay with productive fish all play roles. Cabo Fishing Brings Russell Back Again Repeat customers provide one of the clearest signs that a fishing experience has created a lasting connection. Russell had already fished with Blue Sky Cabo and returned for another charter. Blue Sky Cabo provides complimentary shirts to returning clients, but the central reason for coming back remains another opportunity on the water. This July 11 return produced a strong addition to Russell's Cabo fishing history. Three guests. Eight hours. Captain Jorge. Twelve yellowfin tuna. Two skipjack released. Returning customer Russell and his three-person Sacramento-area group completed an eight-hour charter aboard the 32' Luhrs Blue Star with Captain Jorge, catching 12 yellowfin tuna and releasing two skipjack.
