Perfect Weather for a Fishing Adventure
The weather on December 22 was pristine, setting the stage for an incredible afternoon on the water. The temperature hovered between 78°F and 82°F, offering warm but comfortable conditions. A gentle breeze at 7 mph kept things cool, while the wind’s steadiness ensured smooth waters throughout the journey.
The water clarity was exceptional, with visibility extending to approximately 25 feet, making it easier to spot fish activity and gauge ideal fishing spots. The moon phase was a waxing crescent, just a few days past new. This phase is often favored for fishing, as the reduced moonlight encourages fish to be more active during daylight hours, searching for food.
Afternoon Charter Highlights
Katy and Victor boarded the 35-foot Riviera at the Cabo San Lucas Marina, greeted by Captain David and his professional crew. The 12:00 PM departure ensured plenty of time for action-packed fishing while soaking in the warm Cabo sunshine. Let’s dive into the specific catches and moments that made this charter a true highlight for these avid anglers.
Bonita Bonanza
Within the first hour, the lines were buzzing with activity as several bonita were hooked. Bonita, known for their feisty fight and speed, gave Katy and Victor an exhilarating challenge. Using light tackle, the crew expertly guided the guests in reeling these beauties aboard. Bonita may not be the centerpiece of every fishing tale, but their abundance and spirited resistance made them a thrilling catch for the duo.
The Yummy Dorado
As the sun climbed higher, the pinnacle of the day came when Katy hooked a stunning dorado, also known as mahi-mahi. This fish, with its vibrant green and gold hues, leaped from the water in spectacular fashion, showcasing its strength and agility. With patience and skill, Katy successfully brought the dorado onboard, earning applause from Victor and the crew.
Dorado are not only a delight to catch but are also prized for their culinary value. Captain David ensured the fish was kept fresh, ready to be filleted for Katy and Victor to enjoy later. They eagerly anticipated savoring their “yummy dorado” grilled to perfection at one of Cabo’s renowned restaurants.

Blue Sky Cabo’s 35-foot Riviera is equipped with state-of-the-art fishing gear, ensuring guests have the best chance of success. On this charter, the crew utilized:
