Captain and Mate
Former Deckhand of the Ruthless, Roberto Padilla, became Captain of this vessel in 2019.Roberto is well-liked by everyone that steps aboard as he has a very nice temperament and speaks English well. He is proud to keep his boat clean and is very attentive to his anglers needs.He makes a great team with Deckhand Jose Gomez, who is the son of Rosendo Gomez, Captain of another one of our vessels, the Tiburon. Jose’s love of fishing came from his father of course, and he has been learning with him for many years, but did not start fishing professionally until 2018. Even so, he won our Pisces 40th Anniversary Tournament Dorado Division in 2018. He has quickly become a client favorite, as he has a very kind demeanor, great smile and mostly because he loves to catch fish.
Captain Roberto has been fishing professionally for 15 years and comes from a long line of fishermen in Cabo. As he was born and raised here he knows the grounds well, and is always one of our top producing boats. His favorite fish to catch are Yellowfin Tuna and Marlin. Some of his largest catches are: an 80 lbs Dorado, 750 lbs Blue Marlin, 450 lbs Black Marlin, 73 lbs Wahoo. He has also caught an 180 lbs, 200 lbs and 235 lbs Swordfish in Cabo area - a prized catch.
He has one tournament win to his name, with a 39.9 lbs Wahoo in the Los Cabos Tuna Jackpot in 2015 aboard the Ruthless.
