As the clock struck 6 AM, the Burke family, along with their friends, arrived at the marina, their excitement bubbling over like waves crashing on the shore. The salty breeze, the faint glow of dawn, and the anticipation of what lay ahead set the tone for an incredible day.
Captain Alex, a seasoned fisherman with a reputation for delivering epic fishing stories, welcomed them aboard the Blue Sea. The group included:

Cabo’s Weather & Water Conditions: A Fisherman’s Dream
The weather was spectacular—a crisp 68°F at sunrise, climbing to a comfortable 74°F by mid-morning. The sky was painted in hues of soft pink and orange, and the sea conditions were ideal. The water temperature hovered around 75°F, providing perfect conditions for roosterfish and other game fish. A gentle 6-knot breeze kept the air fresh without making the ride too choppy, and the slight 2-3 foot swells made for a smooth journey.
The Chase for Roosterfish: The Ultimate Cabo Fishing Challenge!
With lines in the water, the excitement was palpable. The kids watched in awe as Captain Alex and his crew expertly set up the bait and explained the strategy. Roosterfish, known for their lightning-fast runs and impressive fights, were the prime target.
It didn’t take long before the first strike hit!
Fish On! The First Battle Begins
The reel screamed as a massive roosterfish took the bait. The battle was on! Damian (11) and Stefan (13) took turns fighting the beast, their faces lighting up with determination. With Captain Alex coaching them, they worked together, reeling, pulling, and holding on as the fish darted back and forth.
After an intense 15-minute fight, they finally brought the magnificent roosterfish alongside the boat. A quick photo session ensued before the catch was safely released back into the wild—a true sportsman’s moment that left everyone cheering!
The Second Rooster: A Team Effort!
Just as the excitement from the first fish settled, another reel went off! This time, Heidi (10) and Hazel (8) took the reins, showing their fearless determination. With some help from Andrew and Scott, they managed to keep the line tight and battle the powerful fish.
The fight lasted nearly 20 minutes, with the roosterfish making several powerful runs. As the kids worked together, their parents cheered them on, capturing every moment on their phones.
Finally, the second roosterfish surfaced. The crew lifted it just long enough for the girls to get their victory shot before another successful release.
The sense of accomplishment was undeniable. Two roosterfish in one trip? That’s what Cabo dreams are made of!
Beyond the Catch: The Joy of Cabo Fishing
One of the most rewarding parts of any Cabo fishing trip isn’t just the catch—it’s the experience itself. For the kids, this was more than just a fishing trip; it was an unforgettable adventure where they learned patience, teamwork, and the thrill of the chase.
Between catches, Captain Alex shared fascinating stories about Cabo’s marine life, pointing out dolphins and even a few jumping manta rays. The boat ride itself became an adventure, as the kids giggled at the spray of the waves and the thrill of speeding across the deep blue waters.
