September 15, 2023 – 1 Marlin Released, 4 Dorado
32′ Luhrs Blue Star | Captain Chewy | 5 Hours Fished
Jose, Roberta, Rogelio and Carolina traveled from Mexico City and were staying in Pedregal when they joined Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charter and Tours for a five-hour morning aboard the 32′ Luhrs Blue Star. Captain Chewy turned the short charter into a mixed-species success with one marlin successfully released and four dorado caught and kept.
Five fish for four guests gave the group quality offshore action without requiring a full-day charter.

The combination of a released billfish and four dorado gave this charter both quality and volume.
Marlin Leads the Cabo Sportfishing Catch
The marlin created the defining moment of the morning.
Few offshore experiences compare with seeing a billfish enter the spread, connect with an angler and turn the water behind the boat into a combination of powerful runs, direction changes and aerial action.
Captain Chewy and the Blue Star crew managed the encounter through the fight and release.
The marlin was returned to the water alive.
Blue Sky Cabo is a marlin-release company. Healthy billfish are released to support the long-term health of the Cabo fishery and preserve these remarkable fish for future anglers.
Trip highlights:
- One marlin caught and successfully released.
- Four dorado caught and kept.
- Five total fish for four guests.
- Two offshore species in five hours.
Four Dorado Build the Cabo Fishing Report
The marlin may have supplied the biggest individual encounter, but the four dorado created additional action throughout the charter.
Dorado are perfectly suited to Cabo’s style of offshore fishing.
They attack aggressively, accelerate quickly and frequently leave the water during the fight. Their brilliant yellow, green and blue coloration makes the final moments beside the boat almost as memorable as the battle itself.
Four dorado were landed and kept.
Combined with the marlin, that brought the morning to five fish.
Short Cabo Charter Produces Strong Fishing Numbers
Blue Star left F Dock at 6:00 AM and returned at 11:00 AM.
For guests balancing fishing with a Cabo vacation, the five-hour format provides an efficient option. It gives the crew meaningful offshore fishing time while returning guests before midday.
In this case, Jose’s group didn’t need a longer charter to experience two of Cabo’s most recognizable offshore attractions.
They caught dorado and fought a marlin.
For four anglers from Mexico City, that created an average of 1.25 fish per guest while also including the successful billfish release.
Pedregal Guests Enjoy a Cabo Fishing Charter
Staying in Pedregal made the early morning fishing trip part of a broader Cabo experience.
Jose, Roberta, Rogelio and Carolina could spend the morning offshore, return at 11:00 AM and still have much of their day available.
That combination can be especially appealing for groups who want serious fishing without giving up an entire vacation day.
Captain Chewy delivered exactly that aboard Blue Star.
