My fiancรฉ and I traveled to Cabo to celebrate my St. Patrickโs Day birthday. Booking on fishingbooker was easy and communication with the booking team was convenient and they answered all my pre-trip questions. The check in process was quick and simple. The boat is immaculate and Captain Luis and his mate Gabby are friendly and speak English well. We decided we wanted to fish for marlin even though captain Luis gave the impression that going for smaller fish would be more successful. Less than an hour into the trip Captain Luis spotted a marlin sunning.ย We were unable to get that one to bite. With about two hours left in the trip we spotted another marlin. Captain Luis was able to get one hooked up and mate Gabby instructed me to get in the fighting chair and handed me the rod. The battle was on. After about a 30-45 minute battle we were able to land about a 150 pound marlin. We were quite lucky to do so because the fish was tail wrapped but Gabby was able to get him on board. That was the only fish and Captain Luis told us that at this time of year only about 10% get a marlin because the water is still a little cold. The trip was amazing and Iโd definitely book with them again!

Early Morning half day charter taken and would use them any time we visit Cabo.ย If taking a taxi make sure to say Dock 3/Senor Frogs to get you to the right side of the marina.ย Check in process was easy and fast, office is right in front of the dock. Recommend having small bills for the $1 per person entry to get on the boat but Capt Luis and first mate (name is escaping me at the moment) were great. Booked the 3 person inclusive that had the fishing license including live bait w/ waters. Walked down and on the boat and were out within minutes. Quick stop for live bait and the trip out was fast and beautiful.ย We were told that because of the full moon the night before it could cause less bites but we were there for the experience and whatever fishing brings. Waters were rough and 2 of the 3 were seasick but all worth it for the opportunity to catch a marlin.ย We did see a few which we casted bait directly in the path of the marlin with no luck, saw Mahi jumping but no bites or fish reeled in. Not the captainโs fault by any means, efforts were made but thatโs fishing.ย Saw a bunch of boats out trying to catch something. Finally called it and came back and were introduced to the famous sea lion that gets the bait on the back of the boat. Would 100% use this charter again for ease and amazing service provided.

My wife and I went out with Luis and Tony frankly was not super high expectations because of the time of year and it being unseasonably cold. The morning was slow as to be expected, but Luis and Tony would not give up. We tried several locations and multiple strategies before we hooked onto a beautiful 120 pound striped marlin. The waves were big the water was rough, they changed out the bait with fresh and my wife soon caught one of similar size. I really donโt know how to say it differently, but these guys work their ass off to get you fish, I heard there were 100 plus charters out for the day and eight Marlin were caught. We got two of the eight. What else can you say When in Cabo book with Luis and Tony.
