Cabo Fishing Report: Tuna Triumph Aboard Blue Sea – Date TBD
The offshore waters of Cabo San Lucas came alive as the Blue Sea BERTRAM 60 welcomed a spirited crew of anglers: Rudy McKinney, Jovanna McKinney, Amy Thornton, Matthew, Cole Thornton (15), Eleanor McKinney (10), and Connor McKinney (8). With Captain Alex at the helm and the tuna bite in full swing, the team launched into a day of offshore excitement, teamwork, and unforgettable firsts.
🎯 Why Cabo Is a Tuna Hotspot
Cabo’s deepwater drop-offs like the 1150 Spot and Gordo Banks are world-renowned for producing yellowfin tuna that are as strong as they are fast.
- Water Temp: ~79°F – ideal for tuna activity
- Tactics: Live bait, trolling cedar plugs, and reading bird activity to find feeding schools
- Target Species: Hard-fighting yellowfin with blistering runs and deep dives
🛥️ Blue Sea BERTRAM 60: Built for Big Game Adventures
The Blue Sea is a 60-foot sportfisher made for both comfort and high-performance fishing.
- Captain Alex used sonar and experience to position the boat over bait-rich areas

🎣 Fishing Highlights: A Family-Fueled Frenzy
Just after 9 a.m., the first reel lit up—and Cole Thornton (15) took the spotlight with a 40-pound yellowfin that put up a determined fight. Cheered on by the group, Cole worked the rod like a pro, bringing the fish boat-side after a 30-minute battle.
Later, Rudy and Amy took turns reeling in a double strike, their lines sizzling as twin tunas tore into the deep. It wasn’t long before Connor (8) and Eleanor (10) jumped in on the action—each helping to crank in yellowfin with huge grins and even bigger hearts.
“Seeing the kids land tuna was incredible,” said Rudy. “They’ll be talking about this for a long time.”
