Cabo San Lucas Fishing Report Ursula III & Ursula IV

Weather Forecast Today: Partly Cloudy
Air Temperature: 97°F
Sea Water temperature: 84°- 87°F
Wind: S SE at 12 mph
Humidity: 44%
Fishing Conditions in Cabo, Fishing Areas and best Catch:
Another great day, a little cloudy but the water temperature stays warm and that is encouraging for the Blue’s come, so we feel very fortunate because last Tuesday 28th we had one of the largest catches had been since start the Blue Marlin season in Cabo.

The Captain Olter Schcolnick reported the following experience:
Our journey on board the Ursula IV began at 6:30 am and throw lines at 7:30 am about 14 miles outside 180° south of Cabo San Lucas, we find a school of Yellow fin Tuna, then we went a little more outside of school, was when a troll in “Petrolero” Lure (Black & Brown) one of our favorites..
We had a hook up Blue Marlin that took ¾ of line out, immediately we calculate exceeded 400 lbs, was great when he jumped more than 10times.
The first to fight the marlin was the Angler Roberto Bardo, about 45 minutes after, he was relieved by Jeffery S. Cook and Tyler, it took about 30 minutes over relieving Roberto Bardo again, the estimated time of fight approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes until we bring on board, and take to weight.


Giving a total weight of 500 lbs. thus causing a great expectation to be the largest so far this season.


We believe that this is only the beginning of the great season we will have.

Equipment used: A Penn International 50 TW Reel and Penn Rod 50-80 with 80 lbs. line.
