Would recommend this boat to anyone. They know how to target the fish you are after. I Will use them again next time I’m in town. Good for inexperienced and experienced anglers. We had 2 Marlin on the hook in the first 30 minutes of lines in the water. Ended up catching a nice Striped Marlin. With over 20 interactions with Marlin throughout our trip.

Nice clean boat. Caught our limit of Mahi (our primary goal) and got a massive marlin as a bonus without even trying. We did the all inclusive full day trip and the box lunch was good (really too much food). Also got more beer than we needed. Luis and ismael were very good too. Made adjustments to lures and depth of troll as needed. Communicated effectively about our plan. We initially told them tuna was the number 2 priority but told us Jan is not the right month and we adjusted our plan accordingly

Fished Cabo multiple trips in past. First time fishing with El Budsters pride.  Started slow as I had went against Captains recommendations of staying in closer with a good chance of catching multiple Dorado and maybe Marlin.  Captain Luis said let’s give the off shore tuna a try anyway as requested.  4.5 hrs in too trip with no action, Captain made a turn in closer to where he originally thought best.  In two hours we landed the first, a trophy size 45lb bull Dorado.  A short time later we hooked a smaller Dorado, perfect for dinner at Captain Tony’s.  Next up my first ever Sail at 60 lbs.  Followed by a 80lb striped marlin.  What a day!  Couldn’t have been more pleased with any other outfit in Cabo San Lucas.

We recently fished a half day trip for marlin only per our request (despite the mahi bite being better).Captain Juan was honest and said what we have to come to learn about marlin fishing, there is no guarantee to land one. We went about 10 miles out and began to troll and within a few minutes we hooked up to our only fish of the day, an accidental mahi mahi. The boat was clean and had a good restroom, all tackle and gear was top notch, bait, ice, drinks, lunch, and fishing licenses were provided and ready to go for our group. The captain and deckhand worked very hard to put us on fish, and changed our lures, baits, dredges, ext… throughout the trip. I have been on several guided trips out of Cabo and this was one of the best. The lack of fish had nothing to do with a lack of effort or knowledge, some days they just won’t bite and no amount of experience can change that. I am completely confident that with the captain and crew, along with the tackle and techniques we were using, we would’ve had no problem landing a Marlin on a better day. Thanks for the crew of el budster pride for having us out and trying their hardest to get us on a marlin on a tough day.
