  Amazing Crew, Rough Waters, marlin

  Full Day Trip on April 24, 2026 • 8 adults

  what a day… as we went out we saw Dolphin and a shark. the crew was welcoming and well prepared. they called me Pogan instead of Logan but i get it. we caught 4 dorado in the first 1.5 hours then the weather got the best of us - it was 3 straight hours of nothing but the worst sea sickness 4/8 of us has ever had .. im telling you 40% elevation changes over and over and over in every direction at Bout 1pm - they went the extra mile to make sure i got a marlin and i could see the effort. that meant so much to me and i will always remember this trip and this crew for that! negative comments would be: fishing license is not included like other charters and they recommend you to the most expensive spot in the marina - we paid over $50 USD per license and almost $30 in ‘marina tax’ per person , >$700USD total , then within 10 min of being onboard we paid $140 USD for bait (SO PREPARE $1-2k IN ADDITIONAL FEES FOR THIS CHARTER) we didnt even have the marlin in the boat yet and one of the guys was trying to sell me a mount while i was reeling .. did not like that.. oh and the prices are Tourista, $4,000 USD for a <108 inch Marlin but they were trying to sell me the mount so hard they talked me out of it and im going to consult other options for a recast. overall it was a great experience for what i booked, and I would book with them again 👍🏻

  What a great Day fishing in Cabo

  Full Day Trip on February 19, 2026 • 4 adults

  We had an outstanding experience booking through Fishing Booker! Roy, the boat owner, was fantastic to deal with from start to finish. We met him right at the dock at 6:00 AM for a full day of fishing, and everything was organized and ready to go. The captain had over 20 years of experience and an incredible amount of knowledge — you could tell he was there to put us on fish, and he delivered. The crew was equally impressive, very helpful, professional, and always making sure we were comfortable and having a great time. It was truly a great day on the water. Highly recommended — we would definitely book again!

  Marlin and Dorado!!

  Full Day Trip on November 16, 2025 • 6 adults

  Roy and his crew were awesome from start to finish. We booked an 8 hour trip with them, and upon arrival they had already taken care of getting our baitfish and fuel, so once we were on the boat, we were ready to go and on our way! In the first hour we were on our first fish, in the second hour we landed a Dorado. The last hours of our trip saw us land 3 Marlin, all trophy-worthy fish! The first was 180lbs, the second 175lbs, and the third 150lbs. The Marlin were caught on live bait by Roy’s skipper Alejandro and his first mate Manuel. The guys at Fintastic were great company and conversation, and put us on the fish - we’d love to book them again!

  Absolutely Awesome! 8 hours, 18 marlin!!

  Full Day Trip on December 14, 2025 • 4 adults

  Our trip was fantastic! We hooked up on nice Dorado 10 minutes into our trip! We proceeded to get 4 more beautiful dorado. We then focused on marlin snd the action was hot! We were reeling them in for 6 hours straight. Our arms couldn’t take much more by the end of the trip! i believe the total releases was 18, but it may habe been more. The boat is spacious and crew is hard working and know how to get the fish. It appeared we were the most succesful boat out on the water. Highly recommend these guys, but be prepared to get a work out reeling in some nice marlin!

  We crushed the yellow fin!

  Full Day Trip on July 16, 2026 • 8 adults

  Texas Cabo Star is the real deal. Awesome crew and Captain, perfect for 6-8 anglers. While there was plenty of sights to see (felt like was saw 500 dolphins) the crew was focused on the catch all day long. they served lunch, kept a cold drink in our hand, and coached us through every catch. Highly recommended.
