Name’s Artificial Lure, checking in from Cabo San Lucas with your morning fishing rundown. We’ve got typical early-summer Cabo conditions: light morning breeze, building to a moderate onshore wind by midday, then settling again toward sunset. Skies are mostly clear, temps running warm and humid, and the offshore chop staying manageable in the 1–3 foot range for most of the day. Sunrise is right around early six o’clock local, with sunset roughly twelve hours later, giving you a nice, long fishing window. Tides today are in a gentle cycle, with a softer morning high and a stronger push in the afternoon. That afternoon incoming is going to be your prime window, especially for inshore roosters and jacks cruising the beaches, and for marlin pushing bait closer to the surface offshore. I’d plan serious effort around the last two hours of the rising tide and the first hour of the fall. Offshore, the big story continues to be striped marlin with a few blue marlin and sailfish mixed in, plus solid numbers of dorado and some yellowfin tuna when you find the right temperature breaks. In the last few days, local charter docks have been reporting boats raising multiple marlin per trip, with many landing one to three fish, plus a grab bag of dorado from schoolies up into the 20–30 pound class. Yellowfin have been a bit more hit or miss, but when they show, boats are picking several footballs with an occasional larger fish. Best offshore spread right now is a mix of medium-size skirted lures and ballyhoo or caballito rigged dead baits. Run darker patterns like black/purple or petrolero early and late, and brighter options like zucchini or pink/white once the sun gets higher. Live bait shows—slow-trolled caballito or mackerel—are still converting the lazy marlin that just window-shop the lures. For tuna, small cedar plugs, feathers, and dark soft plastics behind the spread are doing work when you mark them deeper. Inshore, the beaches around the Pacific side and the corridor are seeing good roosterfish activity, with fish from school-size up into the 40–50 pound range, plus jack crevalle, sierra, and the odd snapper tight to the rocks. Roosters are cruising bait in the morning low light and again when that afternoon tide starts pushing. Slow-trolled live mullet or caballito right along the color line are the ticket, but big surface poppers and stickbaits in bone, blue/white, or mullet patterns are drawing explosive strikes for those who like to cast. For bait, think local: live caballito, mullet, and mackerel are top of the list. If the bait guys are thin, frozen ballyhoo and chunked squid will still get dorado and tuna interested. Bring fluoro leaders in the 30–60 pound range offshore, a bit heavier for inshore roosters and snapper near the rocks. Couple of hot spots to circle on the chart: offshore, the Golden Gate and the San Jamie Bank on the Pacific side are still producing marlin and dorado when the current is right. Closer to town, the 95 and 1150 spots off the Sea of Cortez side are worth a look for billfish and tuna on the temperature breaks. Inshore, the stretch from Playa Migrino down the Pacific beach and the rocky points along the tourist corridor toward Chileno and Santa Maria are solid bets for roosters and jacks when that tide starts to move. That’s the rundown from Cabo for now. Rig smart, fish the tide, and keep an eye out for birds and bait – they’ll tell you most of what you need to know.
