Once again, El Budster did not disappoint.  We took a half day, afternoon trip with Francisco and Otto and had a great day out at sea. After seeing some whales putting on a show while they fed, we caught about a 170 lb striped marlin. Although we were hoping to also catch some Mahi, they weren’t biting.  They also took care of getting our fishing licenses, delicious boxed lunch and any beverages we requested, all at a very reasonable additional price. Will definitely re-book with El Budster.

Took my dad on a fishing trip with El Budster and it was a great experience. The weather was perfect. We were out on the water fishing for 5 full hours which was awesome. We caught over 12 fish, most of it was skipjack Tuna but those were some fun fights. We saw a few Marlin swimming on top of the water but couldn’t get them to bite. The $20 lunch was worth the purchase. Came with a huge sandwich, fruit trail mix bar, two chicken taquitos, and an apple, water included. Their Captain and staff were very knowledgeable on the fishing spots and just how to fish in general. Very good. We had a hitch hiking seal that hopped on as we got back into the marina which made us tourist jump! Overall, great experience.

2nd time I’ve fished on the el budster. Highly recommend this boat. Captain and crew will get you on a fish of a lifetime.
We booked the all inclusive trip for 4, they had plenty of beer, water and sodas. The lunch they provided was one of the best I’ve had on a boat. Two small burritos, sandwich & chips for each of us.
We each caught some bonito off the start then trolled for tuna. No luck for tuna so we went to marlin and dorado area.
Hooked two striped marlin at once about 3 hours into the charter. Lost one, but landed the other.
We then hooked another about 40 minutes after landing the previous marlin. Got it all the way to the boat but was going crazy jumping and head shaking and the hook popped out at leader length. Great release tho.
Trolled the last hours with a few more marlin strikes but no luck for the rest of the trip. Caught a 15lb dorado on the way to another zone but that was the last fish of the day.
Great boat to fish on and highly recommend, they have a office in the marina next to senior frogs. Really easy to find if your new to Cabo.

I have fished with theses guys now 4 times and they always put us on the fish.
Half day or full day expect a exceptional day at sea.  Look to catch multiple fish including Marlin, Tuna, Wahoo, Mahi Mahi.

I would have no hesitation in recommending El Budster to fellow fishermen. It’s comfortable and well equipped with two fighting chairs and plenty of shade and seating areas. Capt Francisco and mate Omar both worked very hard to put us on fish, with the result that we had a beautiful striped Marlin of 150-170lbs. This was despite us seeing many other boats around us flying the marlin flag when we returned to harbour. This made 4 fish for them in three consecutive days’ fishing.

Note that although it isn’t compulsory locally for some reason we practiced catch and release, which I would encourage for anyone who cares about the state of our seas. After all, my marlin released today could be the one you catch on your next trip.
