Five Buddies, Five Hours and Two Dorado in Cabo San Lucas
August 28, 2026 brought Jerod, Troy, Dale, Max and Phil together for a private guys’ Cabo fishing trip aboard the 43-foot Riviera Blue Sky with Captain Luis. The five buddies departed at 6:00 AM for a five-hour morning charter and finished the trip with two dorado landed.
The format was simple: five friends, one private boat and a morning dedicated to offshore fishing in Cabo San Lucas. Rather than measuring the day by a long list of species, this charter produced two quality dorado during a compact five-hour window.

The statistics show a straightforward morning: two dorado during five hours of Cabo fishing. Both fish added action to a trip designed as much around spending time together as putting game fish aboard.
Dorado Were the Target Species on This Cabo Fishing Morning
- Dorado are one of the signature warm-water game fish encountered around Cabo San Lucas, particularly when summer water temperatures climb into the upper 80s.
- Their speed, bright coloration and surface-oriented fighting style make dorado particularly enjoyable on a group charter. A hookup can quickly bring everyone into the action as the crew manages lines, positions anglers and watches for additional fish.
- On this August morning, two dorado provided the catch for Jerod, Troy, Dale, Max and Phil.
Warm Water Defined the August 28 Fishing Conditions
- Water around Cabo was approximately 89°F, firmly within the warm late-summer range associated with dorado and other pelagic species.
- Offshore marine forecasts called for northwest-to-north wind around 10 knots, with wind expected to shift southerly later in the day. South-to-southwest swell was forecast around five to seven feet, with a relatively long 17-second swell period.
- That longer period is an important statistic because wave height alone does not describe the ocean. Wider spacing between swells generally produces a different ride than the same wave height packed into a short period.
- The trip also occurred immediately around the full moon, with lunar illumination essentially 100% on August 28.

Why a Five-Hour Cabo Fishing Charter Works for a Guys’ Trip
- A five-hour Cabo fishing charter offers a practical balance for groups that want a serious fishing experience without committing the entire day. A 6:00 AM departure gets anglers on the water early, while an 11:00 AM return still leaves much of the day available in Cabo San Lucas.
- The 43-foot Riviera Blue Sky also gives a five-person group considerably more room than a smaller sportfishing boat. Friends can rotate through fishing positions, watch the action from the cockpit and enjoy the offshore run together.
- For this group, the objective was direct: spend a morning fishing together and put fish aboard.
Final Cabo Fishing Report – 2 Dorado for the Guys
The final numbers from August 28 were concise: five buddies, five fishing hours and two dorado landed. Jerod, Troy, Dale, Max and Phil shared a private morning aboard the 43-foot Riviera Blue Sky with Captain Luis, fishing warm late-August water under full-moon conditions. The trip is a good example of what a shorter private Cabo San Lucas fishing charter can deliver. There was no need to overcomplicate the report – the guys went fishing together, Captain Luis put the boat in position, and two dorado came aboard before the 11:00 AM return.
