Seven game fish made for a productive five-hour morning for Karsten, Kenneth and Taylor aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star. The November 6 charter produced one marlin and six dorado, giving the three anglers a strong combination of billfish excitement and repeated dorado action during a relatively short morning on the Pacific.
The charter began at 6:00 AM and concluded at 11:00 AM. Rather than depending on a single encounter to define the trip, the morning developed into a mixed-species outing with enough activity to produce seven game fish before the boat returned to Cabo San Lucas.

Seven Game Fish Create a Fast-Paced Morning of Fishing off Cabo
A five-hour charter gives a crew a defined window to locate productive water, establish a presentation and capitalize quickly when fish are found. On this morning, the results developed into a diverse offshore experience rather than a day centered on only one species.
The six dorado accounted for most of the action. Dorado can create an entirely different atmosphere aboard a boat once they are located because multiple opportunities can develop within a relatively short period. Their speed, aerial movement and aggressive feeding behavior make them an exciting target for anglers, while the possibility of additional fish remaining nearby keeps everyone watching the water after the first hookup.
With three anglers aboard, six dorado also provided opportunities for the group to remain directly involved in the fishing rather than simply watching one person handle the day’s only encounter.
The marlin added another dimension entirely.
Marlin Adds a Billfish Encounter to the Cabo Fishing Day
A marlin appearing during a morning already producing dorado changes the character of a charter immediately. Dorado provide fast action and colorful surface fights, while a marlin introduces the power, size and unpredictability associated with one of the Pacific’s most recognized offshore game fish.
That contrast is what made the November 6 catch particularly interesting. Karsten, Kenneth and Taylor did not simply encounter seven fish of the same species. Their morning included two very different types of offshore fishing experiences.
The crew had to remain prepared for those changing opportunities because offshore conditions can develop quickly. A productive area holding dorado may also contain bait that attracts larger predators, while current edges and concentrations of life can bring several pelagic species into the same general water.
By the end of the five-hour trip, the combination of one marlin and six dorado had created a substantial result for a three-person charter.
Why Dorado Can Transform a Morning of Fishing Around Cabo
Dorado are among the most visually distinctive offshore fish encountered around Cabo San Lucas. Their coloration can shift dramatically during the fight, producing combinations of brilliant yellow, green and blue that make an encounter memorable even before the fish reaches the boat.
They are also capable of aggressive strikes and energetic surface runs. Once hooked, dorado frequently leap from the water, which allows anglers to see much more of the fight than they might with a species that remains deep.
Finding one dorado can sometimes lead to additional opportunities because these fish may travel in groups or remain around floating structure, bait concentrations or productive current conditions. For a crew, this makes the moments immediately following a hookup important. Keeping the boat positioned correctly and maintaining an effective presentation can turn an isolated strike into sustained action.
Six dorado during a five-hour charter indicate that Karsten’s group encountered productive conditions and converted multiple opportunities during the morning.
Mixed-Species Fishing Shows the Variety Available Around Cabo
One of the defining characteristics of offshore fishing around Cabo is the possibility of encountering dramatically different species during the same charter. The waters surrounding the southern Baja Peninsula bring together Pacific influences, seasonal currents, bait migrations and offshore structure capable of supporting a wide variety of pelagic fish.
That does not mean every trip produces multiple species, nor can a previous fishing report predict what will happen on a future charter. Conditions change continually, and fish move according to factors that include water temperature, current, bait availability and seasonal patterns.
Historical reports become useful because they document what actually occurred rather than what might theoretically be available.
The November 6 record is particularly straightforward: three anglers spent five hours offshore and encountered one marlin along with six dorado.
When reports like this are collected over months and years, they begin building a detailed picture of Cabo’s seasonal fishery. Individual results remain unique, but the larger archive can help anglers understand how species activity changes throughout the calendar.
A Productive Five-Hour Cabo Fishing Charter
Longer charters provide additional time to search distant water and adjust when conditions change, but this trip demonstrates that a shorter outing can still develop into a highly active morning when productive fish are located.
For Karsten, Kenneth and Taylor, seven game fish in five hours meant the day was not defined by a long search followed by one brief encounter. Dorado provided repeated action, while the marlin gave the group a completely different offshore challenge.
That variety is an important part of what makes Cabo fishing appealing. An angler may begin the morning watching a trolling spread without knowing whether the next strike will come from a dorado, tuna, wahoo or billfish. Each species demands something different and creates its own experience once the line comes tight.
On November 6, the combination was marlin and dorado.
Building a Historical Record of November Fishing in Cabo
Every individual charter report adds another piece to the historical record. Some days are dominated by one species, some produce only a single important bite, and others develop into mixed catches with several fish coming aboard or being released.
This morning belongs in the latter category.
With seven total game fish for three anglers, Karsten, Kenneth and Taylor experienced consistent enough action to make the five-hour window productive while still having the excitement of encountering a marlin.
The six dorado provide useful evidence of dorado activity during this early-November period, while the marlin adds another billfish occurrence to Blue Sky Cabo’s historical records.
No two days on the Pacific are identical, which is precisely why recording individual trips has value. Rather than relying on generalized seasonal statements, anglers can look back at actual charter dates and see what boats encountered under real fishing conditions.
For November 6, 2023, the record is clear: one marlin, six dorado and seven total game fish during a five-hour morning charter in Cabo San Lucas.
