I was skeptical because the boat I really wanted was over double this price. I ended up going with Bluesea because of the price and the reviews. The captain really got us on the fish. We caught 2 mahi (dorado) and 1 marlin! Captain really worked hard the entire time. The only thing that isn’t mentioned on the site is that the boat only does trolling so if that is not the kind of fishing you prefer, then that would be the only reason to stay away.

Johnny was a good and personable captain. The bite was slow, but I guess that is how most of the charters have been. The boat is a perfect size for 3 or 4 guests. We trolled for a few hours and was only able to hook up to a small skipjack. We found a spot that we will call “Johnny’s Spot” and was able to catch 2 bucket list fish (rooster fish and a Mahi). We kept the Mahi and was able to get it cooked at La Cantita which was so delicious. We got Mahi 7 ways and it was 460 MX Pesos ($~25 USD) and it came with sides too. Good day overall. If trolling isn’t your thing, the live bait bite was a bit more productive.

The bite is super slow right now for a lot of outfits. Unfortunately it was for our trip as well. BUT that is fishing. We fish because we love the time on the water, the catch is just a bonus!

Johnny was awesome. He tried and tried to get us on the fish. Making phone calls to fellow anglers to see how the bite was on different areas of the island.  We had a few bites and a missed catch due to him getting off but regardless it was a blast.

The fishing season is switching gears currently so anyone who blames their guide probably has never fished before. Regardless of not catching the fish we wanted, it was a beautiful morning and sunrise on the ocean!

Also, dolphins and whales aplenty while fishing! What better views could you want!

Thanks again Johnny! If we’re ever in Cabo again, we’ll gladly book again!

Captain Juan was super knowledgeable and friendly. He took care of making sure we had everything going to make sure we had the best chance of catching something. He also had time to point out whales breaching, dolphins, rock formations and anythimg else he saw that we didn’t. We hauled in several Bonita fish that were fun to reel in. Then Juan said now time to go for the big ones. He took us to a spot where he figured wed have the best luck at a Marlin or other large fush. Well after about an hour with little luck he decided we need to pick up some mackerel for bait to go for Marlin.  Mobile bait boats are on the water making this easy. 30 min later my wife got a hit. A marlin took her bait and ran. She handed me the rod and i started reeling. It was amazing. We got the fish into the boat in about 15 min from hooking it. Without Juan’s coaching and skills we would have surely lost the fish. When we made it back to the dock, Johnny was waiting to congratulate us. He then set up a consultation for mounting the trophy fish. Lastly he walked us over to a restaurant that prepared a meal from the bonita fish we caught. It was lunchtime so we had a great meal from some of the freshest fish that we caught. I would say this was the best charter we ever had. My rating would be no different if we did not catch the Marlin.

This was an amazing experience. My wife and I went for our birthdays. It was a beautiful day on the ocean. Super relaxed and chill. Fishing was slow at first but the view is great. Lots of whales close by. Captain Johnny did his best and tried real hard to get us on fish. We couldnt have been more happy with this striped marlin. Captain was fun and knowledgeable. Highly recommend.
