Striped Marlin aboard the Picante 40′
On June 15th the Picante Team together with the other colleagues from the fishing community in Cabo celebrated that Baja went from alert level 6 to 5 and many non-essential activities such as sportfishing opened. In addition to our quality top service and our globally recognized fleet of CABO yatchs, we have reached the next level as the first sportfishing fleet in Los Cabos to create and implement a safety and hygiene protocol approved by the federal government and certified by the Secretary of Health (SS), the Secretary of Tourism (SECTUR), the Navy Secretary (SEMAR) and the port administration of Cabo San Lucas (API).

Daily Fishing Report:
Our priority continues to be that you, your family and friends enjoy a fabulous fishing experience, ensuring your safety and health on board our yatchs.

We are proud to have a distinguished place in world sport fisheries and we cannot but thank you for your preference and support during these 25 years of our company. Thank you very much!
Due to the rest that we gave to these fishing grounds during the isolation months, the fishing the last 15 days has been incredible. Summer has started and with it the arrival of our favorite big game species.
From Striped Marlin, Yellowfin Tuna, Mahi to Roosterfish and Cabrilla we’ve got it all, and is the perfect moment to come down here, enjoy a few days in Cabo paradise, with an excellent weather, no line at Mexico customs and few people at the resorts pools and beaches. Don’t you think that one of the safest places right now is offshore and what better offshore than the Cabo San Lucas waters? Contact us and book your fishing charter today!
Two weeks ago our first fishing charters were at the Picante our classic 40′ Tollycraft, where Captain Ricardo Gonzalez and mate Jesús Zamacona retaliated their desire to fish with a beautiful specimen of Striped Marlin, as big as 165 pounds that our customers mount and a big Dorado (mahi-mahi) for dinner. Last weekend they released 2 more Striped Marlin
Dorado bite and Tuna
The fishing aboard the Picante Express have been very productive, our fishermen released 2 Striped Marlin and landed 2 football tuna for a fresh sashimi party.
Last week the Picante Expresso crew found the Yellowfin Tuna landing 7 in total, with the biggest around 50 lbs. They headed inshore and released a nice Roosterfish, those are still around! Yesterday they released one Striped Marlin.
