Dorado Fishing Highlights the Cabo Charter
The dorado was an exciting addition to the family's April fishing adventure.
Also known as mahi-mahi, dorado are recognized for their brilliant green, blue, and yellow coloration. Their speed, agility, and energetic fighting style make them popular among anglers visiting Cabo San Lucas.
These offshore predators frequently feed around concentrations of baitfish, floating objects, and productive current boundaries.
Although dorado are more commonly associated with Cabo's warmer fishing months, catches remain possible during spring when favorable ocean conditions develop.
For Paul, Katie, Sadie, and Mia, landing a dorado provided a memorable highlight during their five-hour experience aboard Blue Sky.
Skipjack Caught and Released
The second fish caught during the April 9 charter was a skipjack.
Skipjack are fast-swimming members of the tuna family, known for their schooling behavior and energetic fights.
They also play an important role in the offshore marine ecosystem as a food source for larger predators, including marlin.
Following Blue Sky Cabo's catch-and-release practices, the skipjack was returned to the ocean.
The two catches gave the family an opportunity to encounter different offshore species during the same morning.
Cabo Fishing Without Dredge Equipment
The family's charter did not include specialized dredge equipment.
Dredges are commonly used to imitate schooling baitfish and attract offshore predators, particularly when targeting billfish.
However, conventional trolling techniques can also produce results when crews encounter favorable fishing conditions.
The April 9 charter demonstrated that a five-hour trip without a dredge can still provide enjoyable fishing opportunities and multiple species.
Five Hours Aboard the 43-Foot Blue Sky Riviera
The 43-foot Blue Sky Riviera combines private yacht comfort with offshore sportfishing capabilities.
For families traveling together, the vessel provides room to enjoy the ocean while participating in the fishing experience.
Paul, Katie, Sadie, and Mia completed their charter at noon after five hours on the water.
Their final fishing results included one dorado caught and one skipjack released, adding another documented family fishing experience to Blue Sky Cabo's April 2024 fishing activity.
