September 16, 2023 – 1 Marlin Released, 1 Dorado
32′ Luhrs Blue Star | Captain Chewy | 5 Hours Fished
Bob and Todd began the first morning of a two-day fishing booking with Blue Sky Cabo Fishing Charter and Tours aboard the 32′ Luhrs Blue Star. Their five-hour charter with Captain Chewy produced quality rather than volume: one marlin successfully released and one dorado caught and kept.
With another fishing day already scheduled, the pair opened their Cabo program with two of the destination’s signature offshore game fish.

Marlin Release Highlights the Cabo Sportfishing Catch
The marlin provided the signature encounter.
Billfish can transform an offshore trolling morning instantly. A strike can be followed by a rapid run, abrupt direction changes and the aerial displays that have helped make Cabo San Lucas one of the world’s best-known marlin destinations.
Captain Chewy and the Blue Star crew managed the fish through the fight and brought the encounter to the preferred conclusion: a successful release.
The marlin returned to the water alive.
Blue Sky Cabo is a marlin-release fishing company. Healthy billfish are released after the catch as part of our commitment to protecting Cabo’s exceptional marlin fishery.
Trip highlights:
- One marlin successfully released.
- One dorado caught and kept.
- Two offshore species for two anglers.
- Day 1 of a two-day fishing booking.
Dorado Adds Variety to the Cabo Fishing Report
The dorado provided a completely different fishing experience.
Dorado are known for aggressive strikes, sudden acceleration, aerial fights and dramatic coloration. Even a single dorado can create fast action around the cockpit when it begins jumping behind the boat.
Bob and Todd added one dorado to the morning’s catch.
The fish was kept.
That gave the pair both a billfish release and a quality table-fish catch during the same five-hour charter.
Five Hours Deliver a Cabo Charter Fishing Combination
Blue Star departed F Dock at 6:00 AM and returned at 11:00 AM.
The five-hour schedule gave Captain Chewy enough time to produce encounters with two different offshore species while allowing Bob and Todd to return before midday.
More importantly, this wasn’t the end of their fishing experience.
It was only Day 1.
Booking consecutive fishing days can create additional opportunities because offshore conditions, bait concentrations and fish movement can change from one morning to the next.
The first day had already delivered a marlin and dorado. Bob and Todd still had another charter ahead.
Quality Defines the Cabo Sportfishing Catch Results
This report is a good example of why total fish count doesn’t tell the entire story.
Two fish may sound modest compared with a double-digit dorado day, but species matter.
A successfully released marlin is a major Cabo fishing experience. Adding a dorado during the same short charter gave the pair a second highly desirable offshore species.
For two anglers fishing five hours, the combination produced a strong opening chapter to their two-day booking.
