Luis and crew were amazing, from the moment we left the dock they made sure we had snacks and drinks and we were on our way fishing! 15 min into trip we hooked a Mahi Mahi and then it slowed but Luis and his crew didn’t give up. They were changing lures and doing everything they can to get us on the fish. We were not far from marina on our way back and hooked into a Marlin! Checked all the boxes for us on the trip and highly recommended the Blue Marlin boat.

Great day spearfishing with a great guide and captain. Luis was great. He got us on fish and gave us plenty of instruction while being available to help with reloads and give points on improving our hunting.

We had a great time on our Cabo Fishing Trip. Captain Edward and his mate got us on a big Marlin within minutes. We also hooked onto some Roosters, but weren’t able to land them.

Captain Eduardo was quick to respond to his booking and returned communication quickly. His mate and him were very knowledgeable of the fishing grounds. He was very personable. The expectations of the fishing trip was exceeded. I will go again if back in the area. You will not be disappointed if you book with him.

Trip: Cabo Trophy Hunt - 28’ Cuddy Cabin
★★★★★
What can I say, that day the water was very ruff and we caught two Wahoo fish one 60 pounds and one 50. The crew was amazing from the food to helping us with moving about the boat too recovering the fish. Definitely my best fishing trip experience I have had. Will definitely go back and charter with Blue sky.
