A returning customer getting back aboard for another day of fishing is always meaningful, and this November 26 charter welcomed Kelly back to Blue Sky Cabo for a full nine-hour day on the Pacific. Kelly was joined by Amy, Chip and Megan aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star, giving the group plenty of time to search for fish and work through changing opportunities offshore.
The confirmed catch for the day was one dorado and one skipjack. It was not a huge numbers day, but it was a two-species result that illustrates an important part of fishing in Cabo San Lucas: every trip develops differently, and longer charters give the crew more time to search, adjust and stay with the hunt.

The booking record does not identify the captain, precise fishing grounds, tackle presentation or exact location where either fish was caught, so those details have intentionally not been added.
A Nine-Hour Cabo Fishing Day Gives the Crew Time to Search
A nine-hour charter creates a very different fishing window from a short morning trip. Leaving Cabo San Lucas at 6:00 AM and returning at 3:00 PM meant Kelly’s group had the better part of the day available to locate productive water and respond to what was actually happening offshore.
That extra time can matter because Cabo fishing rarely follows a fixed script. Dorado may be encountered around floating debris, current edges, temperature breaks or areas holding bait. Skipjack can appear in active schools and bring sudden periods of fast action. Finding either species still requires locating the right piece of water at the right time.
For this charter, the final result was one of each.
The longer trip also reduces the pressure to judge a day by the first hour or two. A quiet start does not necessarily determine how a Cabo charter will finish. More available fishing time allows a boat to continue searching rather than being forced to turn toward the marina just as conditions or fish activity begin to change.
Dorado Adds Color to a Late-November Fishing Trip in Cabo
Dorado are one of the most recognizable game fish encountered around Cabo San Lucas. Their bright coloration and energetic fights make them a memorable catch, and November remains an interesting transitional period when warm-water species can still be part of the offshore mix.
Historical coastal water-temperature data supports that context. One historical dataset lists Cabo San Lucas water temperature at approximately 80.5°F on November 26, 2023. That is regional historical data rather than a temperature measurement taken aboard Blue Star, but it provides useful context for the conditions around the southern Baja peninsula at the time.
The group’s dorado gave the charter its primary offshore game-fish catch, while the skipjack provided a second species and a different type of fight.
Skipjack are powerful for their size and can deliver surprisingly aggressive runs. They may not receive the attention given to marlin, dorado or yellowfin tuna, but anyone who has fought one on appropriate tackle knows they can add genuine action to a fishing day.
Historical Conditions Around Cabo During the Charter
Archived regional weather information for November 26, 2023, indicates temperatures around 20°C early in the morning and approximately 25°C later in the day, with about 12 km/h wind reported for nearby San José del Cabo. The historical record describes increasing cloud cover later in the day and no measurable precipitation. These figures are regional reference information, not observations recorded by the crew offshore.
That distinction matters when preserving older Cabo fishing reports. Weather recorded at an airport or shore station can provide valuable historical context, but conditions miles offshore may differ. For that reason, Blue Sky Cabo does not substitute regional data for actual onboard observations when those original measurements are unavailable.
What This Cabo Fishing Report Shows
This November charter offers several useful takeaways:
- A nine-hour charter provides significantly more search time than a short trip.
- The confirmed catch included two different species.
- Kelly was returning to fish with Blue Sky Cabo.
- Dorado and skipjack were both encountered during the same charter.
- Unrecorded fishing details have not been reconstructed or invented.
Returning to Cabo for Another Day of Fishing
Perhaps the most important part of this report is not simply the two-fish total. Kelly had fished with Blue Sky Cabo before and chose to return, this time sharing the nine-hour experience with Amy, Chip and Megan.
Fishing reports should document the day as it happened rather than turn every charter into a record-breaking story. Some days produce marlin, tuna and dorado in numbers. Others are defined by searching, patience and a couple of opportunities that finally put fish on the boat.
On November 26, the recorded result aboard Blue Star was straightforward: one dorado, one skipjack and four guests spending nine hours fishing the waters surrounding Cabo San Lucas.
For a returning customer, it was another chapter in a Cabo fishing experience—and another historical charter preserved as part of the Blue Sky Cabo fishing record.
