This was our first fishing trip and first time in Cabo! Miguel and Jose were very patient and VERY helpful and did not give up on the slow start! They got us 2 trophy’s that we were looking for - my cousin landed a 51” Dorado and it was the most beautiful fish and shortly after they spotted a Marlin at the surface feeding and we managed to get it!
After a 30 minute fight, which would have not been possible without Captains maneuvering and Jose’s instructions, we got the 108” Striped Marlin in the boat!
We both got our trophy’s and the story’s to follow! We will be back and I highly recommend the Team of the Black Marlin!!!!
Thanks again gentlemen! Made our trip

Captain Manuel and his crew were awesome from beginning to end and far exceeded our expectations. Booked a half day trip and right off the bat hooked a beautiful Skipjack, shortly after we caught a second which we released. This was followed by a gorgeous Mahi-mahi. The highlight of our morning was an 8.25 foot Striped Marlin! We will not only recommend the Black Marlin charter to our friends and family but it will be our go-to whenever we return to Cabo. Thanks Captain Manuel and crew!!!

Captain Manuel and his son and mate were on time and asked us what we wanted to fish.  My wife and I both wanted to land a few fish, I wanted a Dorado, my wife Jay wanted a Rooster Fish. Then if we caught, maybe a swing outside on way back to the marina for a chance for a marlin. We hooked a bunch is Skip Jacks, but soon the crew got busy over some Roosters.  We had a double going, jays was really fighting, I was so excited for her I let my line loose as we changed sides and lost mine.  Things settled down after she landed her Rooster, she said we need to get you a big one. Manuel turned out to sea and 10 minutes later we were fighting a 8 foot 9 inch striped marlin.  It was simply amazing, our first striped marlin was on board after a 40 minute fight, which seemed much longer. Captain Manuel and crew did an amazing job as the fish ran at the boat and then headed out to sea.  They knew exactly were to keep the boat and my line.  What meant the most to Jay and I was they were almost as excited as we were.

If you are lookin for a great day on the water - this is the crew you want!

Me and my girlfriend (who does not fish) both had a day we will never forget.

Manuel and Jose are absolutely fantastic and they worked tirelessly to put us on the fish. The boat and equipment is top-notch and the boat was exceptionally clean. Communication before the trip was excellent and everything (licenses etc.) was taken care of.

Right after we left dock we already had two beautiful skipjacks on the hook and the day started excellent. Like probably for a lot of us, fishing a marlin has always been top of my bucket list. However, they were just not biting in the morning. But Manuel and Jose literally made the impossible possible and after noon Manuel spotted a group of three marlins and Jose got us one on the hook.

And what a beauty it was, it jumped majestically out of the water and put on a real fight, just like we imagined. We didn’t manage to land it, but that’s how this sport is somedays.

Additionally, we spotted some whales, a bunch of sealions, flying mantas and even sharks jumping out of the water for their prey.

They were the nicest and most hard working crew ever, and even my girlfriend who is not into fishing left the Black Marlin saying that this was an absolutely amazing day.

I can only encourage all of you to go for this crew - they won’t disappoint you.

Thank you very much Manuel and Jose for that absolutely great day - if we ever come back to Cabo, we will definitely see each other again! 

Cheers from Germany,

We enjoyed everything about our trip!  Manuel and his son did an amazing job of preparing us on how to get to the dock and our expectations. Once we arrived, Manuel made us feel at home.
They did everything they could to make sure we caught some fish.
We spotted some fins of Marlins, but they did not bite or the went deep suddenly.
We saw some whales and manta rays.  We caught some nice skipjack but we threw them back. Then we stopped and started jigging. We caught 7 Bonitos. Then, while we were reeling in our last bonito, just like magic, a Marlin took the bait and jumped out of the water!  It was amazing!  We reeled it in and it was awesome!  Just liked we imagined! 
Upon arrival to the dock, Manuel suggested someone to prepare our fish. They did it with so much awesomeness.  We got some smoked and frozen.  We got a few filets to take to Jack’s restaurant to cook for us immediately. It was the best and freshest fish. We got it grilled and blackened. Both were amazing and the sides were great too. 
The day before we were to leave, they brought the prepared filets to our hotel in prepackaged sealed pouches. We can’t wait to cook it up at home.
More stars than 5 goes to Manuel and his son!  We are on top of the world !
