There’s plenty of fish in the deep blue sea for you to try your hand at fishing in Cabo San Lucas.
Whether you want to catch the Striped Marlin, Yellowfin Tuna, Black and Blue Marlin, Dorado or Wahoo fish, Cabo is the ultimate destination for exotic fish species.
With the mesopelagic fish, found deep into the sea, making up 95% of fish in the world, it’s only natural that anglers and fishing enthusiasts explore deep sea fishing.
Deep sea fishing in Cabo San Lucas is an avid sport with tourists visiting and enjoying sportfishing from all over the world.
Before sailing out into the deep blue sea, keep these guidelines in mind to help you catch the best fish bites of the season.
Check Out the Reefs and Wrecks
Whether you’re an avid angler taking a boat out into the sea, or novice fishermen chartering a fishing boat, carry nautical maps and have an expert guide you toward the fish.
Small fish like to gather and hide under big reefs and shipwrecks underwater and that’s where you’ll find the big fish preying near the hunting ground.
As small fish are prime targets of big carnivorous fish, make sure to circle around the coral reefs and rocks beneath the surface of the water.
Let Birds Be Your Brains
Keep your eyes trained at the sky and watch out for seagulls. As birds like to circle around bait-like fish found on the surface of the water, follow them and cast your lines near the flock of birds.
The presence of small fish is an indicator of bigger fish found deep below the surface of the sea. If you catch sight of dolphins in the blue Mexican waters, follow them as they’ll lead you to Yellowfin Tuna species.
Try Different Types of Natural and Artificial Bait
Experiment with different types of live and plastic bait to catch fish. While it’s easier to catch smaller fish with artificial bait, some fish like Marlin and Dorado are easy to lure using natural live and rigged bait (small Bonito and Mackerel fish)
Keep Seasickness at Bay
Whether you have a sensitive stomach or not, it’s always safe to carry some medicine that curbs motion sickness.
It’s pretty common to experience nausea while offshore, especially in a small boat. If you’re traveling in a yacht, stay above deck and train your head toward the horizon to calm your rolling stomach.
Bring the Right Fishing Gear
Make sure you’re carrying the right fishing equipment to catch deep sea fish. As the carnivorous fish are more aggressive, you need a sturdy fishing rod with a hardwearing swindle to support the thrashing of bigger fish.
Plan a sunny escape to Cabo San Lucas and go on an adventure of a lifetime with family and friends. Go on a fishing excursion and hire a private sportfishing boat to sail out into the sea.
