Cabo Fishing Report: Double Marlin Victory Aboard Blue Sky – May 12th
On May 12th, 2025, the Pacific waters off Cabo San Lucas delivered a marlin-packed adventure for a new group of anglers from Texas aboard the luxurious Blue Sky RIVERA 43. With Captain Luis at the helm and the crew dialed in, the team set out early with one goal: to hook into the legendary striped marlin that make Cabo the sportfishing capital of the world.
By the end of the day, they had gone two-for-two—hooking, battling, and releasing two powerful marlin, each one a story in itself.

Fishing Highlights: Two Marlin, Two Epic Battles
🎣 First Hook-Up – The Sky Dancer
Just after 9 a.m., the first marlin struck. The reel screamed, and the fish launched into the air, tail-walking across the wake. The angler locked in for a 40-minute battle, adjusting drag and footwork as the marlin dove deep and surged across the spread.
With Captain Luis’s expert coaching, the team brought the fish boat-side, where it was measured and safely released.
🐟 Second Strike – Power & Precision
Later in the morning, another marlin hit hard. This one fought deeper, testing the angler’s endurance with long, powerful runs. After a 50-minute tug-of-war, the second striped marlin was also brought in, admired, and released—a perfect catch-and-release double.
“That second marlin had torque,” one of the anglers said. “It felt like reeling in a freight train with fins.”
