September 2, 2023 – 1 Tuna, 2 Skipjack – Cabo Fishing Report
A six-hour morning with Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charter and Tours aboard the 35-foot Riviera Blue Water produced one tuna and two skipjack for Tim and Rich on September 2, 2023. Captain Oscar departed Cabo San Lucas at 6:00 AM with the two anglers, who were staying at Le Blanc Spa Resort, and worked a dredge-assisted offshore program through noon.
The final fishing record was three fish caught: one tuna and two skipjack, with the tuna retained and both skipjack released.

Cabo Fishing Charter Starts With an Upgrade to Blue Water
An interesting detail behind this charter was the boat assignment.
Tim’s reservation originally came through FishingBooker before the party was moved to Blue Water, Blue Sky Cabo’s 35-foot Riviera. That gave Tim and Rich a comfortable offshore platform for their six-hour morning with Captain Oscar.
The anglers were also staying at Le Blanc Spa Resort, adding another useful detail to this specific charter record rather than reducing the day to a generic Cabo fishing story.
At 6:00 AM, Blue Water headed offshore as the September morning was beginning.
Captain Oscar and the crew incorporated the dredge into the trolling program, increasing the amount of subsurface activity behind the Riviera while searching for productive water.
Tuna Adds Quality to September Cabo Fishing Report
The headline fish was the tuna.
Tuna bring an entirely different style of fight than many surface-oriented game fish. Once hooked, they can use their speed and strength below the boat, forcing anglers to maintain pressure while the crew manages the cockpit.
For Tim and Rich, putting a tuna into the six-hour charter gave the morning a valuable offshore result.
The tuna was retained, consistent with Blue Sky Cabo’s normal approach to quality table fish.
The crew also connected with two skipjack, which were released.
That brought the morning to three total fish and provided multiple opportunities for the anglers rather than a single isolated strike.
Dredge Adds Another Tool to Cabo Yacht Fishing
The dredge is worth documenting because it distinguishes the fishing program used aboard Blue Water from a basic trolling approach.
A dredge is designed to create the appearance of a concentrated bait school beneath the surface. As Blue Water moves through the fishing grounds, that larger visual footprint can attract predators from outside the immediate lure spread.
It does not guarantee a strike.
Instead, it gives Captain Oscar and his crew another way to create opportunities.
That difference is important. Offshore fishing remains unpredictable, and equipment works best when combined with experienced decisions about trolling speed, location, water conditions and presentation.
On September 2, the complete program produced one tuna and two skipjack during six hours.
Cabo Report Fishing Success Comes From Crew Execution
The three-fish total tells us what was caught, but it does not explain how the morning unfolded.
Captain Oscar was responsible for positioning Blue Water and searching for signs of productive water. The crew had to deploy and monitor the dredge, maintain the trolling spread, watch for strikes and then react when fish entered the presentation.
When a tuna or skipjack hits, the transition from searching to fighting can happen instantly.
Lines may need to be cleared. The angler needs guidance. The captain may adjust the boat while the crew keeps the cockpit organized.
That teamwork is one of the major values an experienced Cabo charter operation provides.
Blue Sky Cabo combines specialized fishing equipment with crews who spend their working days on the waters surrounding Cabo San Lucas.
Six Hours of September Fishing From Cabo San Lucas
Tim and Rich selected a six-hour trip, giving Captain Oscar the complete morning from 6:00 AM until noon.
For many visiting anglers, that duration offers an effective middle ground.
There is enough time to work a legitimate offshore fishing program while still returning to Cabo early enough to enjoy the rest of the afternoon. For guests staying at a resort such as Le Blanc Spa Resort, that can make a six-hour charter particularly convenient.
Longer eight- and ten-hour charters provide greater range when fish are farther offshore, but September 2 demonstrates that six hours can still generate several fishing opportunities.
Blue Water Records Another Cabo Fishing Day
By noon, Tim and Rich had completed a morning containing several details worth preserving in Blue Sky Cabo’s historical fishing archive.
Two anglers.
Six hours.
Captain Oscar.
The 35-foot Riviera Blue Water.
A dredge-assisted offshore program.
One tuna retained.
Two skipjack released.
Three total fish.
These specific charter records help anglers researching Cabo tuna fishing, September fishing in Cabo San Lucas, Cabo fishing reports, Cabo fishing charters and private Cabo sportfishing yachts understand what individual days actually produced.
For Tim and Rich, September 2 delivered three offshore fish and a quality tuna aboard Blue Water.
