Trip Summary

Cabo Fishing Report – September **hidden content** Dorado, 2 Skipjack 35' Riviera – Blue Water – Captain Oscar – 8 Hours – 7 Fish Emily and Nicholas spent eight hours fishing the waters off Cabo San Lucas aboard Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charter and Tours' 35' Riviera Blue Water, finishing their September 18, 2023 charter with five dorado and two skipjack. Captain Oscar departed F Dock at IGY Marina at 6:00 AM with two guests aboard and a full fishing day ahead. This charter also had a personal story behind it. Emily arranged the fishing trip as a surprise for Nicholas while the couple were staying at Marina Fiesta Resort. By their 2:00 PM return, the surprise had turned into a seven-fish Cabo fishing adventure. Cabo Fishing Report - FISHING DATA SNAPSHOT Date: September 18, 2023 | Guests: Emily & Nicholas Boat: 35' Riviera Blue Water | Captain: Oscar Charter: 8 Hours | Passengers: 2 Dorado: 5 | Skipjack: 2 Total Catch: 7 Fish | Primary Catch: Dorado Departure: 6:00 AM | Return: 2:00 PM Lunches: 2 | Departure Dock: F Dock Hotel: Marina Fiesta Resort | Occasion: Surprise for Nicholas Dorado Lead Cabo Fishing Charter Catch Dorado were responsible for five of the seven fish recorded during the charter. For two anglers, five dorado created a productive day aboard Blue Water and gave Emily and Nicholas plenty of exposure to one of the species most closely associated with warm-water Cabo sportfishing. Dorado are fast, aggressive predators known for their spectacular appearance. Their combinations of yellow, green and blue can become particularly vivid when the fish are excited near the boat. Their fighting style adds to their popularity. Dorado can accelerate quickly, change direction and produce exciting surface action. That combination makes them an excellent target for visiting anglers while remaining popular with experienced offshore fishermen. On September 18, they represented more than 70% of Emily and Nicholas's recorded catch. Skipjack Add Cabo Fishing Report Variety Two skipjack brought the final tally to seven fish. Skipjack are powerful for their size and can provide demanding fights, particularly when encountered on appropriately matched tackle. Blue Sky Cabo generally releases skipjack. The original historical charter notes, however, do not document what happened with each individual fish after it was caught. For that reason, this report preserves the original record as two skipjack without assigning an unsupported release count. The documented catch remains: 5 Dorado | 2 Skipjack | 7 Total Fish Boat Change Keeps Cabo Fishing Charter on Schedule Emily and Nicholas were originally scheduled aboard another Blue Sky Cabo vessel. An operational issue required a change before the charter, and the couple were moved to the 35' Riviera Blue Water. That adjustment was particularly important because Emily had planned the fishing trip as a surprise for Nicholas. Instead of allowing the vessel issue to interrupt their day, Blue Sky Cabo used another boat in the fleet to keep the charter moving. Captain Oscar took over aboard Blue Water, and the couple departed for their scheduled eight-hour fishing trip. Lunch was provided for both guests during the full-day charter. The original fishing notes do not identify the exact fishing grounds, lure selection, bait presentation or individual hookup sequence. Those details are therefore not being invented for this historical report. What is documented is a strong result for two anglers: seven fish during eight hours of Cabo fishing.

The charter departed F Dock at IGY Marina at 6:00 AM, with a scheduled return at 2:00 PM. His primary fishing objective was blue marlin, making the eight-hour charter an opportunity to concentrate on offshore billfish.

Dorado, also called mahi-mahi, are recognized for their colorful appearance and energetic fighting ability. Although marlin were observed nearby, they did not strike the fishing presentations.
