slow day

FULL-DAY TRIP4 adults1 child

We spent the full day out on the water trolling for Mahi Mahi. The boat owner had advised that trolling was the best approach for targeting Mahi Mahi in these waters. Unfortunately the fish just weren't biting for us that day -- we landed one small skipjack tuna that we released. It was a long, hot day in the sun without much shade or relief. I would have appreciated the option to mix things up and try fishing near some of the rock drop-offs, which might have given us a better chance at putting something in the boat. Sometimes that's just how fishing goes, but a more varied approach could have made the experience more enjoyable even on a slow day. The best thing was the sea lion begging us for bait.

    A Beautiful fish!

    FULL-DAY TRIP • 2 adults

    Started the day with a beautiful sunrise and getting pics at the Arch. Sea got a bit rough. it was hot and humid so Tommy and i both got sea sick. Soon after everything changed for the better…. we got a hit. Tommy took the chair and we were all rewarded with a big jump 50 m out. Jorge, the captain said “muy grande pescada!” i knew Tommy had his work cut out for him. He did great! The big striped marlin jumped several times. it was awesome. Got him in. Unfortunately, we got no other hits, so i did not get to sit in the chair. my wife said that means i get to come back. great trip, great crew and captain. Thx.

    We a sailfish and a stripee marlin on our trip. We let the sailfish go but kept the striped marlin and had it filleted up. The trip paid for itself with the amount of meat we got to take home. Highly rexommend these guys. We cant wait to come back.

    Hiriam and his guys were great!

    ALL-INCLUSIVE HALF DAY PM • 5 adults • 1 child

    We booked a half day, PM fishing trip. Sometimes its difficult to catch fish if you don’t go early. These guys found us 3 catches, we had snacks and drinks, and no one got sick! We had a poor experience wirh sea sickness several years ago, but these guys did a great job! definitely recommend

    Great fishing experience.

    HALFDAY FISHING • 2 adults

    We met Hiram at the boat dock and were told that the boat Baja 1 had some issues. Hiram upgraded us to a 36 foot fishing boat, Reel Medicine. This boat was unbelievable. The Captain and crew are fantastic. They all worked hard to get the fish on the boat. I recoomend either boat, captain and crew to anyone who wants to charter a fishing boat in Cabo.
