Because of geology, ecology and the chance convergence of two great bodies of water—the Sea of Cortez and the Pacific Ocean—the waters of Los Cabos are teeming with life, from the smallest marine creatures to the leviathans of the deep. But it’s those substantial specimens in between, the big tuna and dorado, the muscular marlins and sailfish, that have brought sportfishers to Los Cabos for more than 50 years—and they’re still coming.
The fishing in Los Cabos isn’t simply about the big ones, as Tracy Ehrenberg, owner of Pisces Fishing Fleet explains, “Once reserved for the wealthy, fishing in Cabo is now within reach of almost all visitors and an encounter not to be missed. Not only can you experience the thrill of battling a creature of incredible beauty and size, but your fishing excursion will give you an opportunity to view the cape and its landmarks from a unique perspective, and often allow you to get a close-up look at whales, dolphins and seals.”
Most of the fishing visitors to Los Cabos choose to go out in 28 to 35 foot cruisers for their expeditions, though customers wanting a lavish fishing excursion on a luxury yacht can opt for boats over 100 feet long. No matter the boat’s size, Los Cabos boat captains and crew are all seasoned sailors, and each Pisces boat offers choices in tackle and amenities, as well as instruction for beginning sportfishers.

Other than some first-timers, or those who intend to eat the big sport fish, many anglers practice the conservationist-advised catch-and-release method. The Billfish Foundation has recognized Pisces on numerous occasions for releasing the most striped marlin throughout the year on a worldwide basis. For more information visit these sites:
