They say no one returns empty handed from the fishing paradise that is Cabo. No matter which time of year you choose to head to the famous fishing hole, Cabo always has the riches to share with its cult following.
Quite frankly, associating a month or any month with the best time for deep sea fishing in the floating waters of Cabo would certainly be unfair. It all comes to down to one’s individual preference for a catch.
You will find striped marlin tracking the trails of your chartered yacht in certain months of a calendar year, but you won’t find them in other months. Likewise, wahoos will be found casually sporting an appearance toward the later months of a year—if you expect to catch them in January or February, you are likely to be wasting your trip to the northwest.
To help you pick the time that is best suited for you in the context of your catch preference, here’s a complete breakdown of what is likely to be biting your lure at different times of the year.
If you want to go deep sea fish hunting in the months of January, February or March…
Then you are more likely to catch striped marlins, sierras, cabrillas and snappers.
If you are planning a deep-sea hangout with friends in the sunny months of April, May or June…
You can enjoy an expansive seafood fest, because these months represent peak times for fishing striped marlin, dorado, tuna, roosterfish, sierra, yellowtail and other fish species.
