Cabo San Lucas Marlin Fishing Conditions

September 18 delivered an outstanding Marlin fishing experience for three returning Blue Sky Cabo guests. Captain Oscar guided the eight-hour offshore charter aboard the 35-foot Riviera Blue Water, resulting in five successful Marlin releases.

The complimentary dredge enhanced the fishing setup, providing an additional fish-attraction technique during the offshore trolling program.

With a full eight-hour fishing window, the crew had time to adjust presentations and maintain an effective approach throughout the charter.

Fishing Techniques and Marlin Release Success

The Riviera Blue Water's offshore trolling setup incorporated a complimentary dredge to help attract billfish into the spread.

Captain Oscar and the crew supported the anglers throughout the charter, completing five Marlin releases before returning to the marina at 2:00 PM.

The results demonstrate the potential for productive September Marlin fishing in Cabo San Lucas and the value of an extended offshore charter.
