Title: Marlin fishing in Cabo
Post by: Ifinch36 on April 10, 2022, 05:49:11 PM: Hey guys-

I don't post much, but thought you guys might like this. Here's a video I did from a Marlin trip my dad I did in Cabo last month. Went out with JR and Omar from the Rebecca with Pisces Sportsfishing. I would highly recommend them. Anyway, I hope you enjoy!
And yes, I made the beginning cheesy on purpose.

We went probably 15 years ago now and after a couple hours of slamming through the 10- 15 ft rollers to start fishing I’ve never been more seasick. If you have a issue with that take lots of medicine. Wasn’t too rough once we got to the fishing spot but getting out there definitely was. We never did get any Marlin when we went, a few big sailfish, barracuda, dorado. Maybe the marlin didnt like the lobster and tequila chum I was tossing over board. :chuckle:

We target marlin and dorado mostly, Made an effort to get tuna a couple time. I have not been disappointed. We even managed a couple sailfish.

Post by: Ifinch36 on April 12, 2022, 10:47:32 AM: Thanks! They fought really good! Maybe not as long as a sturgeon, but I'd say 20-30 minutes. I'd equate them more to a 90 lbs steelhead. Lot's of runs and jumps.

They are great but deals can always be had just by visiting the marina and asking around. I usually charter boats around 26-32 feet. The absolute most important thing to ensure is that your crew speaks English. Not broken but actually can carry on a conversation.

If you are willing to share with a stranger it makes it much more affordable. Also, make sure you go the right time of year to catch your target fish. My favorite species is dorado but they are not always in the Cabo area. They migrate.

It is not necessary to go 30 miles or more out either just to catch fish. I could go on and on. If you want more info PM me.
