Pisces Cabo Fishing Report October 3rd to 10th


Captain Alan Silva shows off the 158 lbs Yellowfin Tuna caught aboard Pisces 66′ Reels N’ Dirt

Overall Catch Success rate: 95%

Billfish 32%, Dorado 73%, Tuna 22%, Other 4%

Crazy week of fishing once again! Truly very hard for me this week to showcase all of our boats and their catches, but I can tell you this, every single boat that was out had great fishing (with the exception of only 4 boats that did not have luck). We had a 95% Catch Success Rate for 92 Boats. Total numbers of fish caught were as follows: 35 Billfish Released, with quite a few more Blue Marlin showing up compared to weeks prior, all in the 200- 300 lbs range. Eighty Yellowfin Tuna Caught, the largest caught on Pisces 66’ Reels N Dirt, a 158 pounder, along with three others. Pisces 38’ C Rod, Pisces 28’ Andrea and Pisces 30’ Karina all had Tuna in the 100 pound range as well. A staggering 560 Dorado with all catch and size limits released, as well as some caught for scientific studies as we are collaborating with Biologists in La Paz at the moment. Other catches included a few Roosterfish Released, Wahoo and Grouper.


Panga fishing fun! 2 Roosterfish released plus 3 Dorado to call it a day!


Top Billfish boat this week was Pisces 31’ Tracy Ann going 6 for 8 on Marlin releases, including two Blue Marlin around 250 lbs this week for Jeanne and Patrick Neville, longtime anglers turned Pisces family.
