Marlin :: Marlin, also known as Blue-spotted tuna, has an elongated body, a spear-like snout or bill, and a long rigid dorsal fin, which extends forward to form a crest. Even more so than their close relatives the scombrids, marlin are incredibly fast swimmers, reaching speeds of about 110 kilometres per hour (68 mph). The larger species include the Atlantic blue marlin, which can reach 5.968 metres (19.58 ft) in length and 818 kilograms (1,800 lb) in weight, and the Black marlin can reach in excess of 5 metres (16 ft) in length and 670 kilograms (1,500 lb) in weight.

Sierra
Sierra (Spanish Mackerel) :: Spanish mackerel (or Sierra as known in Los cabos area) are a highly valued fish throughout their range. Recreational anglers catch Spanish mackerel from boats while trolling or drifting and from boats, piers, jetties, and beaches by casting spoons and jigs and live-bait fishing. Sierra are a great day fishing trip with ultra light tackle and the right captain.:: CaboAdventureSportFishing.com :: Cabo San Lucas fishing charters, San Jose del Cabo fishing charters, Los Cabos deep sea fishing Charters. :: Top Sport Fishing Charters, Whale Watching and Snorkeling Sportfish and game fish fishing for Wahoo (Ono), Marlin, Sierra (Mackerel), Sailfish, Roosterfish, Pargo (Red Snapper), Grouper, Dorado (Mahi Mahi), Jack Crevalle, Yellowfin Tuna
Sailfish
Sailfish :: Sailfish are highly prized game fish and are known for their incredible jumps. Sailfish are blue to grey in color and have a characteristic erectile dorsal fin known as a sail, which often stretches the entire length of the back. Another notable characteristic is the elongated bill, resembling that of the swordfish and other marlins. They are therefore described as billfish in sport fishing circles. The sailfish can also rapidly turn its body light blue with stripes when excited, confusing its prey and making capture easier, while signalling its intentions to fellow sailfish. :: CaboAdventureSportFishing.com :: Cabo San Lucas fishing charters, San Jose del Cabo fishing charters, Los Cabos deep sea fishing Charters. :: Top Sport Fishing Charters, Whale Watching and Snorkeling Sportfish and game fish fishing for Wahoo (Ono), Marlin, Sierra (Mackerel), Sailfish, Roosterfish, Pargo (Red Snapper), Grouper, Dorado (Mahi Mahi), Jack Crevalle, Yellowfin Tuna
Roosterfish
Roosterfish :: Rooster fish can reach 4 feet in length and over one hundred pounds. The weight of the average fish hooked is about 20 pounds. The fish is popular as a game fish, but like most fish in the jack family (besides the amberjack and California Yellowtail) it is not considered a good eating fish. The rooster Fish is explosive when hooked and stands out as one of the top game fish for just the shear joy of catching one on light tackle. There are few fishing experiences that match that of fighting a large rooster fish on ultra light gear. :: CaboAdventureSportFishing.com :: Cabo San Lucas fishing charters, San Jose del Cabo fishing charters, Los Cabos deep sea fishing Charters. :: Top Sport Fishing Charters, Whale Watching and Snorkeling Sportfish and game fish fishing for Wahoo (Ono), Marlin, Sierra (Mackerel), Sailfish, Roosterfish, Pargo (Red Snapper), Grouper, Dorado (Mahi Mahi), Jack Crevalle, Yellowfin Tuna
Pargo
Pargo (Red Snapper) :: The red snapper is a reef fish found in warmer deeper waters. The original name in Latin American Spanish is Huachinango or Pargo. The red snapper commonly inhabits waters from 30 to 200 ft (10 to 60 m), but can be caught as deep as 300 ft (100 m) or more on occasion. Red snapper are a prized food fish and are caught commercially, as well as recreationally. They're a fun alternative to trolling--though fishing deep ledges often is exhausting on the angler. :: CaboAdventureSportFishing.com :: Cabo San Lucas fishing charters, San Jose del Cabo fishing charters, Los Cabos deep sea fishing Charters. :: Top Sport Fishing Charters, Whale Watching and Snorkeling Sportfish and game fish fishing for Wahoo (Ono), Marlin, Sierra (Mackerel), Sailfish, Roosterfish, Pargo (Red Snapper), Grouper, Dorado (Mahi Mahi), Jack Crevalle, Yellowfin Tuna
Grouper
Grouper :: The word “grouper” comes from the word for the fish, most widely believed to be from the Portuguese name, garoupa. Their mouth and gills form a powerful sucking system that sucks their prey in from a distance. They also use their mouth to dig into sand to form their shelters under big rocks, jetting it out through their gills. Their gill muscles are so powerful that it is nearly impossible to pull them out of their cave if they feel attacked and extend those muscles to lock themselves in. These bottom fish are a fun alternative to trolling. They offer work to pull out of their bottom dwelling holes and offer a great eating cuisine. The multiple rock and water ledges off of Cabo San Lucas and San Jose Del Cabo offer a myriad of opportunities to bottom fish to to catch nice sized grouper. :: CaboAdventureSportFishing.com :: Cabo San Lucas fishing charters, San Jose del Cabo fishing charters, Los Cabos deep sea fishing Charters. :: Top Sport Fishing Charters, Whale Watching and Snorkeling Sportfish and game fish fishing for Wahoo (Ono), Marlin, Sierra (Mackerel), Sailfish, Roosterfish, Pargo (Red Snapper), Grouper, Dorado (Mahi Mahi), Jack Crevalle, Yellowfin Tuna

Mahi-mahi (Dorado) can be found large numbers in the Cabo San Lucas corridor and are one of the prized catches of sports fisherman in most places of the world. :: CaboAdventureSportFishing.com :: Cabo San Lucas fishing charters, San Jose del Cabo fishing charters, Los Cabos deep sea fishing Charters. :: Top Sport Fishing Charters, Whale Watching and Snorkeling Sportfish and game fish fishing for Wahoo (Ono), Marlin, Sierra (Mackerel), Sailfish, Roosterfish, Pargo (Red Snapper), Grouper, Dorado (Mahi Mahi), Jack Crevalle, Yellowfin Tuna

Fequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Cabo San Lucas Vs San Jose Del Cabo

We don’t necessarily boast better fishing — we just boast a different culture of fishing that we believe has been lost in Cabo San Lucas.  The water temperatures and presence of bait determine where the fish are.  Though Cabo San Lucas is often considered the ‘tip’ of Baja, all you have to do is look at a map and you’ll see that the bottom of Baja California reaches a flat area that stretches from Cabo San Lucas around to San Jose del Cabo around the coast sixty miles to Los Barilles.  The mixing of the Pacific Ocean with the waters of the Sea of Cortez makes the general area one of the BEST fishing spots in the world.  Don’t be fooled that ONE spot is the best to fish — success depends on currents, presence of bait, and time of year.
