September 15, 2023 produced an excellent mixed-species morning for Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charters and Tours, as Roberta, Rogelio and Carolina landed 1 marlin and 4 dorado during a five-hour charter aboard the 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star with Captain Jorge. The marlin was successfully released, while four dorado added consistent action to a trip that produced five game fish between the 6:00 AM departure and 11:00 AM return.
Marlin Released During a Five-Hour Cabo Fishing Charter
The marlin was the headline catch of this September 15 Cabo fishing report. Hooking a billfish during a five-hour trip can quickly transform a productive morning into a memorable Cabo sport-fishing experience, particularly when the same charter also produces several additional game fish.
Captain Jorge and the Blue Star crew successfully brought the marlin alongside before releasing it back into the Pacific. Blue Sky Cabo releases marlin as part of its approach to responsible billfish fishing around Cabo San Lucas.
The release was only part of the morning’s action. Roberta, Rogelio and Carolina also landed four dorado, giving the charter an impressive combination of a major billfish encounter and multiple dorado hookups.
Four Dorado Add Consistent September Fishing Action
While the marlin provided the biggest individual moment, the 4 dorado gave this trip additional depth. Dorado are among the most recognizable game fish caught around Cabo, combining aggressive strikes with speed, aerial action and brilliant coloration.
September’s warm offshore environment can be particularly productive for dorado as these fish follow bait concentrations, current edges and favorable water conditions.
The final numbers were direct: five game fish in five hours, including four dorado and one released marlin.
For a relatively short morning charter, that represented an excellent balance between quantity and species variety.
September 15 Cabo Weather Conditions
The charter began almost exactly at sunrise, with sunrise occurring around 6:06 AM. Historical Cabo San Lucas weather data shows an air temperature of approximately 83°F at 6:00 AM, increasing to roughly 87°F by 9:00 AM and approaching 90°F around noon.
Morning winds were relatively light. Records indicate approximately 6 mph around the 6:00 AM departure, dropping toward 4 mph around 9:00 AM before beginning to increase later in the day.
The day was predominantly clear, with no measurable rainfall recorded. Average humidity was approximately 73%, atmospheric pressure was near 1011 mb, and visibility was approximately 10 kilometers, or 6.2 miles.
For anglers aboard Blue Star, this meant a warm September morning with light early winds and plenty of daylight available from the moment the charter left the Cabo Marina.
Blue Star and Captain Jorge Produce a Mixed-Species Catch
The 32-foot Luhrs Blue Star is designed for groups wanting a dedicated Cabo sport-fishing platform without moving into one of the larger yachts in the Blue Sky Cabo fleet.
Captain Jorge used the five-hour fishing window effectively. Offshore fishing can involve extended periods of searching, followed by sudden bursts of activity when the boat reaches bait or feeding predators. That makes crew preparation particularly important.
Once a fish enters the spread, the captain must position the boat while the crew manages the lines, prepares anglers and keeps other potential opportunities alive.
On September 15, those efforts produced two important target categories: marlin and dorado.
Five Game Fish in Five Hours of Cabo Fishing
The results are especially strong when viewed against the length of the charter:
- 1 marlin caught and released
- 4 dorado landed
- 5 total game fish
- 5-hour charter
- 6:00 AM departure
- 11:00 AM return
- Captain Jorge
- 32′ Luhrs Blue Star
This was not a trip defined solely by numbers. Catching and releasing a marlin gave Roberta, Rogelio and Carolina a classic Cabo billfish experience, while four dorado kept the morning productive across multiple hookups.
September Cabo Fishing Delivers Marlin and Dorado
September is an exciting period for fishing in Cabo San Lucas because warm offshore conditions can support opportunities for several highly sought-after pelagic species during the same charter.
The September 15 trip aboard Blue Star demonstrates that variety clearly. In only five hours, the anglers experienced a marlin hookup, successful billfish release and four additional dorado catches.
For anglers considering a Cabo San Lucas fishing charter, this report illustrates why the final catch should be evaluated by more than one statistic. Species variety, the quality of individual encounters, crew execution and responsible fish handling all contribute to the overall fishing experience.
For Roberta, Rogelio and Carolina, the final score was an excellent one: 1 marlin released, 4 dorado landed and 5 game fish during five hours with Captain Jorge aboard Blue Star.
