Cabo Fishing Report October 10 2023 – 31 Dorado Aboard the 35 Foot Riviera Blue Water

October 10, 2023 – 31 Dorado Caught, 10 Retained and 21 Released – Cabo Fishing Report

An extraordinary day of October dorado fishing unfolded aboard the 35-foot Riviera Blue Water with Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charter and Tours on Tuesday, October 10, 2023.

Seth, Jim, Louis, and Arin booked a six-hour private offshore fishing charter departing F Dock at IGY Marina, Cabo San Lucas, at 8:45 AM and returning at 2:45 PM.

Their recorded catch was remarkable: 31 dorado, with 10 retained and 21 released.

That represents a 67.7% release rate, an impressive conservation component alongside the day’s substantial fishing activity.

The reservation included a specialized dredge fishing setup, adding an advanced trolling option to the offshore charter.

Seth’s telephone area code, 970, is associated with northern and western Colorado. This is a telephone-region association rather than confirmation of the group’s residence.

The booking record identifies four guests by name. Although the original inquiry mentioned six passengers, the final charter entry specified four. This report follows the final reservation count.

The operational notes indicate that David was informed about the charter. The name of the captain who actually operated the vessel is not independently confirmed in the supplied record.

October Cabo Fishing Charter Report – An Exceptional Offshore Catch

October is an important month for anglers targeting dorado in the waters surrounding Cabo San Lucas.

Also known as mahi-mahi, these fast-growing predators are recognized for their brilliant coloration, aggressive feeding behavior, and energetic fights.

Dorado often associate with floating debris, baitfish concentrations, and productive offshore current boundaries.

Their movements can change rapidly as ocean conditions and food availability shift.

The October 10 Blue Water charter represents an especially productive historical example of this seasonal fishery.

Rather than documenting a single isolated encounter, the final catch record reflects sustained fishing success during a six-hour reservation.

The precise fishing grounds, individual fish weights, and strike times were not recorded, so those details have not been reconstructed.

Dorado Cabo Fishing Report – Twenty-One Fish Released

One of the most significant aspects of this charter was the decision to release the majority of the dorado.

Of the 31 fish recorded, 21 were released and 10 were retained.

That means approximately two-thirds of the catch was returned to the water.

Dorado are commonly targeted as a food fish in Cabo San Lucas, and eligible fish may be retained in accordance with applicable fishing regulations.

Guests who prefer catch-and-release fishing can discuss their expectations with the captain and crew before departure.

This historical report records the retention and release totals without assuming the individual reasons behind those decisions.

The documented outcome provides a useful example of how a productive fishing day can also include substantial catch-and-release activity.

Dredge Cabo Fishing Charter Report – Specialized Trolling Equipment

The reservation included a dredge, a specialized offshore trolling teaser designed to imitate a concentrated school of baitfish beneath the surface.

Dredges can be incorporated into trolling spreads to attract the attention of offshore predators.

Their effectiveness depends on positioning, boat speed, fishing conditions, and how the crew manages the overall presentation.

For anglers comparing private Cabo fishing charters, equipment and crew experience can be important considerations.

Several factors influence an offshore trolling program:

• Baitfish activity: Concentrations of prey may attract dorado and other predators.
• Current boundaries: Changes in water movement can create productive feeding areas.
• Trolling presentations: Teasers, lures, and rigged baits may be adjusted to conditions.
• Crew coordination: Effective communication helps when fish approach the spread.
• Fishing flexibility: Captains may change locations or techniques as conditions develop.

Although dredge equipment was included, the original record does not establish which specific presentation produced the dorado strikes.

Blue Water Cabo Fishing Yacht Charter – Six Hours Offshore

The 35-foot Riviera Blue Water is part of the private sportfishing fleet operated by Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charter and Tours from IGY Marina.

For a four-person group, a vessel of this size provides a dedicated offshore fishing experience without the need to reserve a substantially larger yacht.

The six-hour schedule offered a balance between meaningful fishing time and an afternoon return to Cabo San Lucas.

Longer eight- or ten-hour charters can provide additional range when anglers want to explore distant fishing grounds or pursue species that require extended travel.

However, this particular charter demonstrates that substantial fishing activity can occur during a shorter reservation when conditions are favorable.

The final catch totals distinguish this trip as one of the more productive dorado outings documented in the Blue Sky Cabo historical archive.

Historical Cabo Fishing Report – Why Accurate Charter Records Matter

Historical fishing reports are most useful when they preserve confirmed information without inventing missing details.

For October 10, 2023, the supplied records establish the vessel, charter schedule, named guests, dredge inclusion, and catch totals.

The exact fishing grounds, successful bait presentations, and operating captain were not confirmed.

Keeping those distinctions clear helps future anglers evaluate historical fishing activity realistically.

An exceptional catch does not guarantee the same result on another day. Offshore fishing depends on changing ocean conditions, bait availability, seasonal movements, and many other factors.

Nevertheless, documented results can help visitors understand the variety of fishing experiences available aboard private Cabo San Lucas sportfishing charters.

Cabo Fishing Report – Final Charter Record

The October 10 charter aboard the Riviera Blue Water stands out for its exceptional dorado fishing and substantial release percentage.

For Seth, Jim, Louis, and Arin, the six-hour private outing produced a remarkable historical fishing record and another example of the opportunities available during October in Cabo San Lucas.
