Their fleet of well-maintained boats, outfitted with all the gear needed for an incredible day on the water, ensures that guests have the best possible chance of landing the fish of their dreams. Each charter is staffed with experienced captains and crew who know the waters intimately and are dedicated to providing a safe, enjoyable, and successful fishing experience.


A typical day with Top Anglers begins at the crack of dawn, as the early morning hours are prime time for fishing. The crew welcomes you aboard with friendly smiles and a wealth of knowledge about what to expect. As the boat departs from the marina, the anticipation builds. The sea is calm, the sun begins to rise, and the horizon is painted in hues of orange and pink.


One of the most sought-after species in Cabo San Lucas is the roosterfish. Known for its distinctive dorsal fin and fierce fighting spirit, catching a roosterfish is a true test of an angler’s skill. Top Anglers Sportfishing Charters provides all the necessary gear and guidance to help you hook one of these elusive fish. The crew’s expertise in locating the best fishing spots and their understanding of roosterfish behavior significantly increase your chances of a successful catch.  Cabo San Lucas is also known as the marlin capital of the world and for good reason.  Large numbers of marlin congregate in the waters surrounding Cabo San Lucas and are one of the top species that anglers seek to catch.


In addition to roosterfish and marlin, the waters around Cabo San Lucas are home to a variety of other game fish, including sailfish, dorado (mahi-mahi), tuna, and wahoo. Each species offers its own unique challenge, making every trip a thrilling and unpredictable adventure. The crew at Top Anglers knows the habits and habitats of these fish, often using a combination of artifical baits, live bait and trolling techniques to lure them in.


As you enjoy your charter, the excitement is palpable. The boat rocks gently with the waves, and the tropical sun warms your back. Suddenly, you see a tug – a very strong, persistent pull that signals a bite. The adrenaline rushes through you as you begin to reel in the line, battling the fish with all your strength. The crew is by your side, offering encouragement and expert advice.


The fight can be intense, sometimes lasting several minutes up to an hour, but when you finally see the shimmering body of a dorado or a gleaming marlin break the surface, the sense of accomplishment is immense. The crew expertly helps you bring the fish aboard, where you can take photos to commemorate the moment before releasing it back into the ocean or, keeping it for a fresh, celebratory meal back at the marina or your resort.


Beyond the thrill of the catch, a day with Top Anglers Sportfishing Charters is also about soaking in the natural beauty of Cabo San Lucas. The stunning coastline, with its rugged cliffs and pristine beaches, provides a picturesque backdrop for your fishing adventure. Occasionally, you might spot sea turtles, dolphins frolicking in the waves or a whale breaching in the distance, adding to the magic of the experience.


Back at the marina, as you disembark with tired muscles and a heart full of memories, the crew of Top Anglers Sportfishing Charters bids you farewell, knowing that they have shared with you a slice of Cabo San Lucas’s vibrant fishing culture. Whether you are a seasoned angler or a first-timer, the combination of expert guidance and the rich marine life of these waters ensures that your sport fishing adventure with Top Anglers is one you will never forget.
