I have had the distinct pleasure of working with Cabo Magic Sportfishing and especially Lori Garcia for somewhere around 20 years when making arrangements for myself, family, friends, college buddies and referring an assortment of others including patients. I trust them.
My brothers son and his family in Cabo arrived Saturday with children ages 4/6/8. Originally they wanted to go out Weds (today) but Lori suggested going on Thursday. My nephew Brad called me back after he spoke with her, and said his conversation with her was pleasant and informative. He said she commented someone else was insisting on going Weds regardless of what she told him. I told Brad to heed her advice.
I took it upon myself to call Lori and ask her about the situation and conditions.
I also asked about the person Brad referenced. She said the client was a difficult person, had done several things attempting to rattle her, and despite her recommendations to not go on Weds due to the winds, he insisted Weds was their only available day. Her comment that people get seasick on cruise ships was in response to his comments during a phone call.
On Tues morning at 5:30am he sent the text message that he opted to display seeking to harm their stellar and well deserved reputation.
I consider them friends and felt the need to speak up as I know how hard they work.
Mickey LaRue - whose real name is Mike Shaver, is wrong 100% about their business. Tommy is partner with many of the boats they offer for charter.
I will continue to confidently recommend them to anyone who asks and urge you to consider there is much more to the story.

Cabo Magic Sportfishing was amazing! Lori makes everything SO EASY! We booked from the US and the process easy and secure. She also sends you all the necessary information to ensure a successful experience. Our Captain Fili and his deck mate were outstanding. They made sure all of our needs were met and kept a keen eye on any marlin chasing our bait. We caught a marlin which just made the experience even better! I highly recommend Cabo Magic Sportfishing for anyone looking for a great time! We will be back!

My husband and I had an incredible day of fishing with Cabo Magic Sportfishing! We felt very well taken care of from start to finish (booking our excursion to docking back in the marina). We had beverages and a meal on board which was delicious! Captain Alberto and Mate Luis are the best in the business. They were friendly, accommodating and most importantly knowledgeable about where the fish were and we landed 4 Marlin!!! It was a dream come true for me to reel in a Marlin. We would highly recommend Cabo Magic Sportfishing. They are top notch!

Cabo Magic Sportfishing provided 5 star outstanding service.
I contacted them in January planning an excursion for April. I completed a form on their website www.cabomagic.com and was contacted by one of the owners. Lori Garcia patiently answered all of my many questions and discussed all boat options. We chose their 28 cruiser for myself and husband with our children ages 6 and 8. The booking experience was equally professional. On the morning of our fishing trip we were met by a staff person and introduced to our crew. Captain Alberto was the father and his deckhand Luis is his son. They were absolutely terrific!! The boat was clean and well equipped. The bathroom was clean. We had great fun and caught fish!! A month later our children are still talking about it and asking when we will do it again. When we return to Cabo San Lucas we will absolutely contact Cabo Magic Sportfishing.

We had the most fantastic time ever, we actually went out for 2 full days. I took my grandson for his 16th birthday. Moro and Beto were amazing, they really know what they are doing, I would definitely recommend. We caught a small tuna, I think, we also caught 110 lb Marlin, and the catch of the day was a 160lb Marlin, 99 inches long. Lori had an awesome chocolate made with a Marlin on top. The guys gave colin a traditional birthday water dumping by sprinkling water over him with a hose. They do everything 1st class

Cabo Magic Sportfishing is a one of kind charter. You will not find this kind of service with any other charter. Mrs. Lori went above and beyond for my wife and I beyond the fishing trip. She made sure to tell us all the good local places to go eat, where to visit and not to visit and how to handle the aggravating time share companies at the airport. You would think she’s a travel agent and running a fishing charter company. The fishing trip was amazing. My wife caught a big striped marlin that we are getting a replica mount of as we speak and I caught a big yellowfin tuna that the resort cooked for us that night. The crew was hands down the best you could ask for. Make sure to book with Mrs. Lori and Cabo Magic Sportfishing if you are planning to take a trip to Cabo San Lucas!

We had a great time on our private 2 person charter. From the start talking to Lori on the phone we could tell we chose the right company. She explained things thoroughly, got us excited, and followed up with LOTS of useful information including maps and pictures of the staff we could expect to see. The crew was stellar at what they do and were flexible to the time on the water according to our desires. 11/10 recommended! We caught a few nice Dorado and Bonita too!

Consistency!! this is aprox the 10th time we have chartered Cabo Magic (Ms. Lori) for fishing in Cabo. not once have we not received everything promised. we have chartered the 36', 40' custom, 43 Hatteras, 60' Betram, and our favorite the 70' custom Pegasus. captain Pancho is always on the fish. The first time we took the 70' out, i figured this will be a nice boat ride with fresh made breakfast and lunch made by the on board chef. Boy was i wrong! We caught 1 marlin and 15 tuna over 70 lbs each. since that trip we have chartered pegasus 4 more times with great luck. We are headed back down October 25th Lori, anything available?? I have recommended Cabo Magic to all my friends and family members that go to Cabo with no regrets. Fish On!

What a trip. Lori with Cabo magic in Cabo San Lucas hooked me up with captain Sergio. He met me in the morning and got me on a boat with captain Luis a really kind man with a skill to get you into fish. Half hour into are Trip and first fish on. A nice little Dorado. No sooner got it in and hooked into a big wahoo. Got that fish landed and went to get a drink of Gatorade and bam another Dirado a big old bull. By the time I got that thing in I was beat. lol what a trip. 1 1/2 hours fishing back to the dock got a few pictures got the fish cleaned and vacuumed. Can’t say enough except 5 stars are not enough. Thank you so much Lori. Sergio and Luis for Trip off a life time.

We celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary in Cabo!
Last time we were here with our son, my husband Joel and our son went fishing with Cabo Magic and had such a great time. Decided I would try even though have never been on a boat. Lori answered so many of my questions. I decided to go with her recommendation and reserved a full day on the 34 Blackfin.
The booking process was again easy and completed with Lori on the phone. The emails she sent spelled everything out and included a lot of helpful general information and restaurant ideas too.
The morning of our fishing trip everything went fine except for the taxi driver getting us to the wrong area.
The crew were ready for us and I was happy to see 2 chairs so I could sit with Joel. and as promised, everything was on board. We enjoyed home made danish and breakfast burritos while we traveled about an hour and a half to the fishing area on the Pacific Ocean. It was pretty windy but I took dramamine just in case so I was ok.
We hooked up on two marlin at the same time and the deckhand helped me because I had no idea what I was doing!
After we released both fish we opened a beer and celebrated!
Then we headed back towards Cabo and saw whales and jumping fish and that was amazing.
We were provided some very tasty fried chicken and sandwiches. There was plenty of water, soft drinks and beer too.
We went closer in and we were catching little fish like crazy. I dont know what they were called, but we did take them to a restaurant and they were delicious.
What an amazing experience. Start to end it was definitely magic!
Thank you Capt Antonio and Caesar for making this a magic experience.
Can't wait to do it again and highly recommend Cabo Magic - Professional and definitely Fun.

How many hrs of fishing and how much does it cost for a day?
Written January 31, 2018
Exactly what Stevetisd said, cost depends on the size of the boat but is split by the number of people in your group. it is not a per person charge. you can do half day of 4 hrs or full day of 8 hrs. best to go on their website to determine cost. Please call my wife Lori at our worldwide Vonage in Cabo 619-819-8634. She will work with you on size of boat.
