Felipe is a great fisherman and a great captain. Put us on bonito quickly, followed up with a school of yellowfin then we fished inshore for roosters. Hooked a bonito, then a 200 lb. Shark (looked like a blue shark but I might be wrong) gulped it down. We fought it for almost an hour, got it to the boat, he handling it at the end, sunk the gaff and it freaked out took off (with the gaff) and broke off. But If anyone is going to put big fish in your boat with you just cranking the reel, it’s Felipe. Cabo Capitan El mejor!!
We came down from Fairbanks, Alaska for our anniversary and I wanted to try some real Cabo fishing. Sushi Time Fishing delivered big time. Booked the Sushi Time II panga boat and it was perfect, just us, the captain, and the open water. Less than an hour out trolling live bait, we hooked up with a striped marlin pushing 7 feet. Captain Pedro knew exactly what he was doing. The fish put up one hell of a fight, 45 minutes of jumps, runs, and deep dives but Pedro kept the boat in position and talked us through every move. Finally got her boatside and Pedro pulled it in. On the way back he radioed the dock, and by the time we pulled in the processor was already there waiting. Gricelda's Smokehouse cleaned it, froze it, and vacuum-sealed everything so we can haul it home to Alaska without any headaches. Super smooth. The panga is small but was comfortable for the two of us and felt just right for getting into fish quick. No need to get a large cabin cruiser for two people. Juan Carlos handled all the booking and was very responsive. He is super professional and made everything easy. If you're coming down on vacation and want a legit, no-BS fishing day in Cabo, this is the outfit. We'll definitely be back next year. Highly recommend. Solid 10/10 from us. 🎣
Thank you so much for fishing with us and for this amazing review. We’re very happy you had a great experience and that your marlin trip was unforgettable. It was a pleasure having you both on board, and we’ll be ready to welcome you again next year in Cabo.
They stole our biggest fish. Super shady company. Told us we could only keep 6 and in the background only gave us the super small one. Then took off fast in the boat before we knew what happened. Bad ending to my birthday weekend my wife surprised me with. Highly advise anyone to use a better company. Very unfriendly.
Hi Jason, We’re truly sorry that your experience didn’t meet your expectations, especially on such a special occasion like your birthday. At Sushi Time, we strive to offer honest, friendly, and transparent service, and we’re genuinely concerned to hear that you left feeling disappointed. We also want to clarify that regulations for sportfishing establish a maximum catch limit per license in order to protect marine sustainability. It’s our responsibility and commitment to operate within those guidelines. It’s important to mention that you did not make your reservation through this channel, which limited our ability to manage the experience directly. However, had the situation been reported on the spot, we would have been more than willing to take immediate action and clarify any misunderstandings in person. That said, we’re happy to know you had a successful day of fishing and, in fact, were able to take home more than what is typically permitted under a sportfishing license. We understand your frustration and regret any grief this situation may have caused. We truly value your feedback and will take it into account to continue improving. If you’re open to it, we’d love the opportunity to make things right and leave you with a better impression of our operation. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us directly so we can explore how to make it up to you on a future visit. Warm regards, Juan Carlos Sushi Time
The views of Cabo were amazing and the fishing was awesome. The guides were very knowledgeable and the customer service from booking to fishing was a great experience. And to top it off we saw a couple pods of whales
Juan was great during the booking process. He responded quickly and was very patient with all the questions. The crew was also friendly and knowledgeable. Our boat was operated by Antonio and Cristian. We went out about 2-3 miles. What I liked best was that it was just me and my son. They also offered a bag lunch, drinks, and snacks that could be added to the package. Finally, they offered transportation from and to our hotel in Cabo San Jose (Barcelo). They even let us hang out in Cabo Dan Lucas before taking us back, which was nice. I highly recommend this sport fishing company.
I picked this company based on the huge number of positive reviews here so I was so surprised when my experience did not match up. First, the good. Booking and communication with Juan was excellent from start to finish. For our day out we started with a thirty minute delay to our day waiting for bait fish. The story was they were in short supply that day, but none of the other boats seemed to have any trouble getting serviced as they pulled up past us, got bait and continued on while we sat there waiting. Then we set out and over the next hour we caught 4 skipjack tunas that were all too small to even filet out (less than 12” long) The captain seemed to put very little effort into finding fish and just stayed at the front of the boat smoking while we trolled and got nothing. Then on the way back in we ran out of gas and had to be assisted by another boat. That to me seemed so unacceptable that he would not have enough fuel or any reserve for our trip. We started late and ended early (not our choice) so we maybe fished for 4 hours and came back with nothing.
Thank you very much for sharing your experience. I’m truly sorry to hear that your trip didn’t meet your expectations — that’s certainly not the standard we aim to deliver. We’re glad to know communication and booking went smoothly, but we regret the delay at the marina. The live bait that morning was supplied by an independent third-party provider, and unfortunately, there was a temporary shortage that affected our departure time. Still, we understand how frustrating that wait must have been. As for the fishing results, conditions can vary daily and are beyond our control, but we always try our best to find active areas. We’ve also addressed your concern about the fuel with the captain to ensure every vessel departs with sufficient reserves — this was an isolated incident and not typical of our operation. Your feedback is very valuable and helps us improve.
5 out of 5 stars. Tony was our captain and the dude just knew where the fish were. We were constantly on fish and caught the limit of dorado for the day. I highly recommend captain Tony and SushiTime for anyone who wants to to go out and fish in Cabo San Lucas.
