Cabo Fishing Report: Marlin & Sailfish Aboard Blue Sea โ€“ June 12th

On June 12th, 2025, the offshore waters of Cabo San Lucas delivered a thrilling doubleheader of billfish action for a powerhouse crew aboard the Blue Sea BERTRAM 60, captained by the seasoned Captain Alex. The teamโ€”Jacky Manuel, Matthew Manuel, Christopher Musgrove, Kristin Davis, Iqbal Rahman, Lindsay Bourg, Chadwick Bourg, Rachel Snow, Robert Snow, and Alicia Tapiaโ€”set out early with high hopes, and returned with epic stories of marlin and sailfish battles that lit up the Pacific.


๐ŸŽฏ Why June Is Prime Time for Billfish in Cabo

As summer currents warm the Baja coastline, both striped marlin and Pacific sailfish become more active and aggressive:

  • Water Temp: 80ยฐF โ€“ perfect for pelagic predators
  • Hot Zones: The 1150 Bank and Golden Gate were alive with bait balls and bird activity
  • Tactics: Slow-trolled live bait and teasers, plus sonar tracking for surface tailers

๐Ÿ›ฅ๏ธ Blue Sea BERTRAM 60: Built for Big Game Glory

The Blue Sea is a 60-foot sportfisher designed for serious offshore performance and luxury comfort.

  • Captain Alex used GPS and sonar to locate fish-rich zones
  • The expansive cockpit gave the crew room to rotate rods and fight fish efficiently
  • All-inclusive amenities included breakfast, lunch, open bar, bait, licenses, and full media coverage with drone and photography

Just after 9 a.m., the first striped marlin was spotted tailing near the surface. Matthew Manuel took the rod and locked into a 40-minute battle, with the marlin launching into the air and tail-walking across the wake.

Later in the morning, Kristin Davis hooked into a sailfish, which put on a dazzling aerial display before being brought boat-side and released.

By midday, Iqbal Rahman and Rachel Snow each had their turn on the rods, with two more sailfish strikes keeping the adrenaline high and the smiles wide.
