October 1, 2023 – 2 Dorado Caught – Cabo Fishing Report
EIGHT ANGLERS, A STRONG ST. LOUIS CONNECTION AND SIX HOURS OF PRIVATE CABO FISHING!
Blue Sky Cabo – 60′ Bertram Blue Sea – Captain Alex – 2 Dorado Caught
October arrived in Cabo San Lucas with another early-morning offshore adventure for Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charter and Tours. On Sunday, October 1, 2023, eight guests boarded the 60-foot Bertram Blue Sea for a six-hour private fishing charter under Captain Alex.
Al, Dawn, Paul, Rick Lindsay, John, Randy, Rick Griffin and Kim made up the group, which had a particularly strong connection to St. Louis, Missouri.
Five passengers had telephone numbers associated with the greater St. Louis metropolitan area, while others had connections to central Missouri, Syracuse, New York, and Orange County, California.
The guests were scheduled to board at approximately 5:55 AM, with their fishing charter running from 6:00 AM until noon.
Their recorded catch was 2 dorado, also known as mahi-mahi.
The reservation included fishing licenses, breakfast, an open bar and a dredge arrangement. A mechanical issue involving the originally booked vessel resulted in the group being assigned to the larger 60-foot Bertram Blue Sea.

St. Louis Missouri Anglers Experience an October Cabo Fishing Charter
The eight-person group represented an interesting mix of American regional connections.
Al, John, Rick Griffin and Kim had 314 telephone numbers, commonly associated with St. Louis, Missouri.
Paul’s 636 area code also represented the greater St. Louis region.
Together, these five numbers made St. Louis the dominant metropolitan-area connection for the reservation.
Randy’s 573 number was associated with central and southeastern Missouri.
Dawn’s 315 number connected to the Syracuse region of New York, while Rick Lindsay’s 949 number represented Orange County in Southern California.
These area-code connections are geographic indicators rather than confirmation of each guest’s current residence.
What brought the eight passengers together was a shared fishing charter in Cabo San Lucas.
For groups traveling together, a private yacht allows everyone to participate in one offshore experience rather than splitting between smaller boats.
The 60-foot Bertram Blue Sea provided the vessel for their October 1 outing.
October Cabo Dorado Fishing Report – Two Mahi-Mahi Recorded
Dorado are among the most recognizable offshore gamefish in Baja California Sur.
Their remarkable colors can include brilliant green, yellow, gold and blue, particularly when freshly caught.
Known as mahi-mahi in many parts of the world, dorado are valued for their speed, aggressive feeding behavior and exciting fights.
October is an important period in Cabo’s offshore fishing calendar, with opportunities to target dorado, marlin, tuna and other migratory gamefish.
Dorado often travel in warm offshore waters and may concentrate around floating debris, baitfish schools and current boundaries.
These fish can move rapidly between feeding areas, making each fishing day different.
For Captain Alex’s October 1 charter, the confirmed result was two dorado during the six-hour reservation.
The historical booking does not identify which individual passengers caught the fish, their sizes or the exact fishing location.
It also does not document whether the dorado were retained or released.
The two-fish total is the confirmed result for this report.
Cabo Fishing Yacht Charter – A Mechanical Change to the 60-Foot Blue Sea
The group’s original package was associated with the 43-foot Riviera Blue Sky.
However, the reservation notes identified a mechanical issue that required a change in vessel assignment.
The final calendar entry placed the eight guests aboard the 60-foot Bertram Blue Sea.
Captain Alex was operating the Bertram during this period of the 2023 fishing season.
The change meant the group ultimately fished from a larger yacht than the one identified in the original package pricing.
For eight passengers, the ability to remain together aboard a private sportfishing vessel was an important part of the reservation.
The six-hour schedule provided a full morning on the water, with boarding arranged just before sunrise-hour departure.
The fishing window ran from 6:00 AM until noon.
Cabo Fishing Charter Report – Dredge Equipment and Offshore Preparation
The booking included a dredge arrangement, with a separate $225 USD charge recorded as collected in cash.
A dredge is a specialized offshore fishing teaser designed to resemble a school of baitfish beneath the surface.
It is commonly used in offshore trolling presentations, especially when pursuing billfish.
Dredges can be part of a broader strategy for attracting gamefish, although the presence of a dredge does not establish how individual fish were caught.
The original reservation does not specify which techniques produced the two dorado.
Accordingly, the catch cannot be attributed directly to the dredge without further documentation.
Fishing licenses had also been arranged for the eight guests.
The original package notes included breakfast and an open bar, reflecting the group’s combination of offshore fishing and onboard hospitality.
Six-Hour Cabo Fishing Charter – Why Morning Departures Appeal to Anglers
Morning departures are a familiar part of the Cabo San Lucas sportfishing experience.
For this group, the day began with boarding scheduled at 5:55 AM.
The six-hour charter then provided a defined morning fishing window.
Compared with a shorter outing, six hours can offer a captain additional flexibility to evaluate fishing conditions, explore different areas and adjust the plan when necessary.
That flexibility can be useful because offshore fishing is never entirely predictable.
Fish locations change with water conditions, currents, bait concentrations and seasonal movements.
A particular species may be active in one area and difficult to locate elsewhere.
For Al, Dawn, Paul, Rick Lindsay, John, Randy, Rick Griffin and Kim, the October 1 reservation resulted in two recorded dorado.
The experience also brought together eight guests with connections to Missouri, New York and California for a private morning on the waters surrounding Cabo San Lucas.
Cabo Fishing Report – The Value of a Private Eight-Person Yacht Charter
A private fishing charter offers groups the ability to organize their time together around a shared experience.
Rather than booking individual spaces on a mixed-party vessel, the eight passengers had a dedicated charter reservation.
Their scheduled six-hour trip provided time offshore aboard the 60-foot Bertram Blue Sea.
The vessel assignment was especially notable because the booking originally referenced the 43-foot Riviera Blue Sky before the mechanical change.
The final record confirms the larger Bertram as the vessel used.
Captain Alex operated the yacht, fishing licenses were arranged, and the reservation included the additional dredge equipment.
The recorded result of two dorado became part of Blue Sky Cabo’s historical October fishing activity.
Every fishing charter produces its own story, shaped by the passengers, vessel, schedule, conditions and opportunities encountered offshore.
For this group, the central facts were straightforward: eight guests, six hours, a private Bertram yacht and two dorado.
