The group returned at 11:00 AM with a documented catch of one dorado and one skipjack. Joe coordinated the reservation.

Joe's group selected the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star for a private fishing experience accommodating five passengers. The early departure allowed the anglers to begin their outing at 6:00 AM and return to IGY Marina before midday. Their accommodation at Hotel Riu Palace was separate from the charter departure point at F Dock. The original record does not specify the fishing grounds visited or the individual strike times. Dorado Cabo Fishing Report – October Mahi-Mahi Opportunities Dorado, also known as mahi-mahi, are among the most colorful offshore game fish encountered around Cabo San Lucas. Their brilliant green, blue, and gold coloration, aggressive feeding behavior, and energetic fights make them popular with visiting anglers. October can provide opportunities to encounter dorado around baitfish concentrations, floating debris, and productive offshore current boundaries. The group's recorded dorado added a prized game fish to their morning charter. The fish's weight and final retention outcome were not documented. Skipjack Cabo Fishing Charter Report – A Second Species Skipjack are fast-moving members of the tuna family, recognized for their schooling behavior and powerful runs. They frequently pursue smaller baitfish and can provide lively action on sportfishing tackle. The additional skipjack made this a two-species charter. Blue Sky Cabo's established policy is to release skipjack, although the original record does not independently confirm the handling of this particular fish. The successful bait or lure was also not recorded. Blue Star Cabo Fishing Report – Five Guests from Hotel Riu Palace The group included Joe, Jason, Chris, Elisha, and Randy. Their reservation demonstrates how a private fishing charter can complement a Cabo San Lucas resort vacation. The 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star provided a dedicated sportfishing vessel for the five guests, while the morning schedule left the remainder of the day available for activities ashore. The documented catch provides a useful historical example of the variety of offshore species encountered during October.

Cabo Fishing Report – October **hidden content** Striped Marlin, 1 Sailfish, 1 Dorado Blue Sky Cabo – 32' Luhrs Blue Star – Captain Chewy – 2 Striped Marlin, 1 Sailfish, 1 Dorado Christine and her group of four experienced an exceptional morning of Cabo San Lucas sportfishing aboard Blue Sky Cabo's 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star. Their five-hour private fishing charter produced four landed gamefish, including two striped marlin, one sailfish and one dorado, all caught near the famous Cabo San Lucas Lighthouse. Captain Chewy and his crew concentrated on the productive Pacific waters immediately offshore, using live ballyhoo and tournament-style dredge equipment to attract gamefish. October 13, 2026 – Cabo Fishing Charter Hooks First Marlin Departing IGY Marina at 6:00 AM, Christine's group headed toward the Lighthouse fishing grounds. The first successful hookup came at 8:15 AM when a striped marlin struck live ballyhoo close to the Lighthouse. The crew successfully landed the fish, providing an exciting start to the morning. Rather than traveling farther offshore, Captain Chewy continued working the nearby waters where fish were actively feeding. Cabo Fishing Charter Lands Sailfish and Dorado At 9:35 AM, a sailfish attacked live ballyhoo approximately two miles in front of the Lighthouse. The crew successfully landed the sailfish, adding a second billfish species to the day's catch. Only 25 minutes later, at 10:00 AM, a dorado struck ballyhoo approximately half a mile offshore. Three different species had now been landed during the same five-hour charter, demonstrating the variety of gamefish available in Cabo San Lucas. Cabo Fishing Charter Releases Second Striped Marlin The final successful strike arrived at 10:40 AM, just 20 minutes before the scheduled return. A second striped marlin took live ballyhoo directly in front of the Lighthouse. Following the fight, the marlin was successfully landed and released in good condition. The two striped marlin were released, consistent with Blue Sky Cabo's responsible billfish fishing practices.
