About Your Trip

Hop on board and experience some action-packed fishing off the beautiful Mexican coast! You'll be going after some big game fish on this excursion into the stunning blue waters off the coast of Cabo, with a drink in hand. On this trip, you'll be able to head for the Golden Gate bank, a legendary sportfishing location about 15 miles north of Cabo San Lucas. The consistently warm water here brings in a lot of Dorado, Skipjack, Yellowfin, Striped Marlin, and Blue Marlin. The Striped Marlin fishing is great during winter and early spring!

You will target these trophy fish using a variety of fishing techniques such as light tackle, heavy tackle, bottom fishing, trolling, and jigging (and optional dredging). Whatever the method, we will definitely put you on some big fish!

On this trip you'll be aboard a huge, luxurious 60’ Bertram sportfisher. Restroom, Fighting chair, rod belts, inside AC salon, Bluetooth, cushioned seating & table. Sonar, experienced Captain Alex & crew wear EarTech Professional Tournament communication headgear, Rip n Hoo Lures, SquidNation & more high end gear.

Everything you will need for a relaxing but action-packed adventure is included on this trip! Captain Jim will provide all rods, reels, and tackle. Plus, the listed price includes breakfast, beer, tequila, premium alcohol, soda, bottled water, ice, complimentary photography, and fish cleaning. Lunch is offered as an option—freshly made on board—for $20pp+ tax. Souvenir Long Sleeve Shirts are offered at a cost of $20 per cottonshirt, $45 DryFit, plus tax. Make sure to bring some good company on this fishing experience in paradise!

We had a blast with Captain Jorge and Alex. Started the morning off with coffee and breakfast tacos as we headed out in search of Mahi off the Pacific side of Cabo. Caught a couple of keepers and some smaller tuna, then took our fresh Mahi over to Alexanders right across from the marina where they cook the fish a few different ways. Definitely recommend hopping on any of the trips Jim and team offer!

Highly recommend. Everything was explained very well by the owner in an email before the trip (where to go, what to bring) and ended up catching a trophy Mahi! Had the fish cooked fresh at Alexander’s 4 different ways at the marina afterwards. Capt. Julio and Jorge have been fishing these waters for over 20 years and are very knowledgeable. We will be booking again very soon for marlin season. Thank you again!

Another great Captain Experiences trip in the books! While the seasonal timing wasn't the best, this was top notch as always and very up front about catch expectations. The crew worked tirelessly to put us on some fish and succeeded in getting us in some Dorado. This was a family trip aimed at exposing fishing newbies to the experience and spending time together on the water. Success all around! As the saying goes, "There is...

Where do I begin…AMAZING! From the moment we boarded it was 5 star. Captain David was a true pro and the guides were talented, friendly, and made the whole experience next level. I’ll never forget this day! Shark ✔️ Marlin ✔️ & we got to meet a sea lion. Not to forget the countless dolphins putting on a show and a breathtaking whale breach. Exceptional. Highly recommended.

We had a great trip With a great crew who was accommodating and worked hard to put us on fish. Caught skipjack tuna and dorado (March is not the best month for fishing in Cabo) but we caught plenty of fish and had a great trip. I’d use this outfit again.
