PICANTE FLEET FISHING REPORT
 

Kicking off the final stretch of the year with great energy and even better fishing, November delivered an abundance of Striped Marlin and, as always, proved to be one of the top months for Yellowfin tuna. We saw excellent numbers of Tuna, along with solid catches of Dorado and Wahoo throughout the month.

The annual Los Cabos Tuna Jackpot tournament was once again a success, showcasing impressive cow tuna and plenty of excitement with 131 teams from around the world competing.

Looking ahead, December is shaping up to be outstanding. Favorable conditions should keep the Striped Marlin bite red hot as we continue releasing dozens of them with our valued guests—ensuring enjoyment today and conservation for future generations.

The best fishing spots this November in Cabo were: Los Arcos, El Faro, La herradura, San Jaime and 95 spot.
