Cabo Fishing Report: Roosterfish Rampage Aboard Blue Ocean – June 6th

On June 6th, 2025, the inshore waters of Cabo San Lucas delivered a bucket-list experience for a group of anglers visiting from Alberta, Canada. Aboard the sleek and powerful Blue Ocean VIKING 50, captained by the sharp-eyed Captain Charro, the crew set out with one goal: to hook into the legendary roosterfish—and the Baja surf zone did not disappoint.


Why Roosterfish Are the Ultimate Inshore Trophy

Roosterfish (Nematistius pectoralis) are known for their iconic dorsal fin, explosive strikes, and relentless power. Found in the warm, shallow waters of the Eastern Pacific, they’re a dream catch for anglers seeking a true fight.

  • Habitat: Roosters patrol sandy beaches, rocky points, and current-swept shallows.
  • Behavior: Ambush predators that chase down live bait with speed and aggression.
  • Fight Style: Long, blistering runs and powerful headshakes—a test of both gear and grit.

Weather & Water Conditions – June 6th

The ocean served up ideal conditions for inshore action:

  • Wind: 5 mph – calm enough for precise bait presentation
  • Water Temp: 80°F – perfect for roosterfish activity
  • Clarity: Excellent – allowing for visual tracking of bait and surface strikes

Blue Ocean VIKING 50: Built for Coastal Combat

The Blue Ocean is a 50-foot sportfisher equipped for both offshore and inshore action.

  • Captain Charro used sonar and local knowledge to target roosterfish-rich zones near the surf line
  • Live bait wells were stocked with sardines and mullet—roosterfish favorites
  • All-inclusive amenities included lunch, open bar, bait, licenses, and full media coverage with drone and photography

Fishing Highlights: Comb-Up Chaos

Just after 8:30 a.m., the first roosterfish was spotted chasing bait near a rocky point. Live bait was cast, and within seconds, the water exploded.

The dorsal fin—like a mohawk slicing the surface—rose behind the bait before the strike hit like a freight train.

The angler locked in for a 30-minute battle, with the roosterfish peeling line and darting through the shallows. After a grueling fight, the fish was brought boat-side, admired for its beauty, and safely released.

By midday, the crew had multiple roosterfish encounters, with two solid hook-ups and one successful release—a stellar showing for a species known for its elusiveness.

“That fish fought like it had something to prove,” one angler said. “It was the most intense inshore battle I’ve ever had.”
