Cabo Fishing Report: Marlin Madness Aboard Blue Sea – May 7th
On May 7th, 2025, the deep blue waters off Cabo San Lucas set the stage for an epic offshore adventure for a crew of anglers from Denver, Colorado—Greg, Todd, Matt, Graham, Sam, and John. Aboard the powerful Blue Sea BERTRAM 60, captained by the ever-strategic Captain Alex, the team set out early with one mission: to hook into the legendary striped marlin that roam Cabo’s Pacific drop-offs.
Why May Is Prime Time for Marlin in Cabo
As spring heats up, striped marlin become more active, feeding near current lines and bait-rich ledges.

- Tactics: Slow-trolled live bait and sonar tracking led the way to success

Fishing Highlights: The Marlin Showdown
Just after 9 a.m., the first marlin was spotted tailing near the surface. Live bait was deployed, and within minutes, the reel screamed.
Matt took the rod and locked into a 45-minute battle of strength and finesse. The marlin launched into the air, tail-walking across the wake in a dazzling display. With Captain Alex’s expert coaching, the team brought the fish boat-side, where it was measured and safely released.
Later in the day, Greg and Sam each had their turn on the rod, with two more marlin strikes keeping the adrenaline high and the crew on their toes.
“That marlin was pure power,” said Todd. “It felt like reeling in a rocket with fins.”
