This week’s fishing has been true to the season, with a few outstanding catches, but mostly, inconsistent. This may be due more to the weather than the fishing itself, or maybe its been the combination of both. We have experienced intermittent winds this week, with one day especially, howling. Other days brought more success to anglers, with up to 3 striped marlin releases aboard, more yellowtail, snapper, and small game fish such as Sierra mackerel, ladyfish and grouper. We saw only a few dorado sprinkled in and some vessels actually managed to find some decent tuna schools, which we hadn't seen last week at all.

Marlin numbers this week in Cabo stayed pretty consistent compared to last week. With again, the top boat producing 6 striped marlin released in one day. “Other” Catches, referring to small game such as yellowtail, sierra mackerel, jack crevalle, grouper, red snapper and others, increased quite nicely and made for lots of fun, especially for many of our young anglers. Tuna numbers decreased, and only a few Dorado were found in this week as well.

Another great week of fishing in Cabo with a very nice surprise billfish appearance to close out the week! The striped marlin showed up in big numbers at Golden Gate, with up to 6 striped marlin caught and released per boat. Yellowfin tuna numbers also held steady this week, with a slight increase in tuna numbers caught per boat. Top boats caught up to 25 tuna per boat and the small game action continues to be good, with the majority of catches being of species like red snapper, yellowtail, amberjack, ladyfish and grouper. Still seeing a few mako sharks sprinkled into catches this week also.

Cabo has been small game fishing heaven this week! Consistent small game catches ranging from red snapper to grouper to yellowtail and so much more. Still some sierra, ladyfish and triggerfish too. We algo got a nice surprise when Pisces Tag Team III hit the dock with a nice 42 lbs wahoo! Marlin were also scattered in, with 1 to 2 fish released per boat, usually along with some kind of small game eating fish. Tuna picked up towards the end of the week, with boats catching up to 15 yellowfin tuna each; mostly footballs (15- 30 lbs).

Another good week of fishing in Cabo; with nonstop epic inshore catches that have kept us busy even though the billfish have slowed.The sierra mackerel have showed up strongly, along with roosterfish and some yellowtail too. Other catches have included amberjack, skipjack, red snapper, triggerfish. Dorado have also made a little bit of a comeback, compared to previous weeks were percentages of dorado caught only being in the 1 to 2 percent range.

We’ve seen a few changes to the fishing from last week to this one. The climate shifted a bit and weather got slightly “colder” nothing compared to the “Polar Vortex” many are experiencing though! We're not complaining there. However, it did seem to affect the fishing, more so towards the end of the week. All in all though, we still saw 1-2 billfish per boat consistently, with a high of up to 6 marlin released at the beginning of the week. Tuna numbers did drop quite a bit too, but we saw a few more dorado scattered in. Those that stayed inshore did well, and had some fun catches of red snapper, triggerfish and sierra mackerel, amongst others.

WHAT A WEEK! 100% Catch success rate for all species combined, making it for an incredible time for fishing in Cabo. Two outstanding catches stand out, an amazing Swordfish catch by Pisces 32’ Bill Collector owner, Mark Chiavetta to start off the week and a jaw-dropping estimated 800 lbs Black Marlin fought on the Pisces 38’ C Rod. We saw consisten fishing all aroudn, with more marlin closer to port too and some nice inshore fishing for roosterfish, jack crevalle, sierra mackerel, grouper, among others. Dorado numbers are about the same as last week, with only a few sprinkled in, and tuna numbers are holding strong, even though the boats are heading out far too find them, about 30 miles or so.

Another good week of fishing in Cabo, and looks like if you're looking for BIG tuna you should head out on a Sunday? For over a month now, we have caught yellowfin tuna over 150 lbs on every Sunday of the month! This week was no different, with anglers Dan and Kurt from LA, California, landing a 187 pound yellowfin! Marlin action is still ON; with multiple releases at the Finger Bank and up to 4 striped marlin released per boat closer by to Cabo, between the Old Lighthouse and Golden Gate. Smaller game this week included sierra, skipjack, grouper, needlefish and amberjacks.

It’s a successful week of fishing once again for us in Cabo. Yellowfin tuna numbers have risen a bit more and are holding steady, and to our delight, some of the bigger size fish are still around, even if found far offshore. The marlin bite at the Finger Bank keeps going strong and we’re wondering if it will ever let up! We’re not complaining though, as the catches are still in the double digits up there, on average 15 marlin per boat, with especially good days looking at almost 30 stripeys each. Small game this week has included roosterfish and grouper, mostly.

Another beautiful week of fishing in Cabo San Lucas to report here. Successful fishing, no matter what species was targeted, but with higher and more consistent numbers of marlin than any other species. The crews are finding the marlin now very close to Lands End, with the Finger Bank (which we thought was starting to slow) now picking back up as weather has warmed slightly again. Yellowfin tuna still found in decent sizes, ranging from 30 to about 100 lbs each, but with anglers heading about 30 miles out to find them. Scattered dorado catches, and very nice catches of smaller game like grouper, roosterfish, red snapper, sierra mackerel, skipjack and others.
