Marlin Fishing During March in Cabo San Lucas
The marlin represented the principal game fish caught during Jacqueline's five-hour charter. Cabo San Lucas is internationally recognized for its billfish fishery, with March falling within the traditional seasonal window for striped marlin activity around the southern Baja California peninsula.
Marlin are among the most sought-after offshore species in Cabo because of their strength, endurance, and demanding fights. Their presence attracts visiting anglers throughout the cooler months, particularly those interested in experiencing the region's established billfish fishing opportunities.
For Jacqueline and her seven companions, recording a marlin during a relatively short charter added an important highlight to their Cabo fishing experience.
The fish was released rather than retained, reflecting the catch-and-release approach commonly practiced for billfish in Cabo San Lucas.
Skipjack Adds Another Species to the Morning Catch
Alongside the marlin, the group caught and released one skipjack, bringing their total to two fish across two species.
Skipjack belong to the tuna family and are regularly encountered in the waters surrounding Cabo San Lucas. Their streamlined bodies, quick movements, and determined fighting characteristics make them an interesting addition to offshore fishing trips.
Although considerably smaller than marlin, skipjack can provide lively action on conventional fishing tackle. Their presence also illustrates the diversity of fish species inhabiting the waters where Pacific Ocean and Sea of Cortez influences meet.
Both fish recorded during the March 19 charter were returned to the ocean.
An 8:00 AM Departure Aboard the Riviera Blue Sky
One distinguishing feature of this particular fishing excursion was Jacqueline's requested 8:00 AM departure.
Many Cabo fishing charters begin around sunrise, but private yacht bookings can accommodate different departure preferences when arranged in advance.
The five-hour schedule provided the group with a morning offshore fishing experience while leaving the afternoon available for other activities.
The 43-foot Riviera Blue Sky accommodated all eight guests together, allowing Jacqueline, Bruce, Shaylyn, Jesse, Tracy, Davis, Shea, and Camryn to share their time aboard one private sportfishing yacht.
The charter operated without a dredge teaser, demonstrating the different equipment configurations available for Cabo fishing excursions.
A Catch-and-Release Cabo Fishing Experience
The March 19, 2024, charter concluded with one marlin and one skipjack released, making conservation an important feature of the group's fishing results.
For visitors interested in private Cabo fishing charters, this outing illustrates how a five-hour excursion can provide opportunities to encounter offshore game fish while accommodating a preferred departure schedule.
Jacqueline's group returned to the Cabo San Lucas Marina at 1:00 PM after completing their morning aboard the Riviera Blue Sky.
