Dorado (Mahi-Mahi)

Also known as Mahi-Mahi or Dolphin, Dorado fishing is fun whatever you call them! They're aggressive eaters, hard fighters, beautiful and incredibly good to eat. They'll hit almost anything. Fly fishing for dorado is a bit more difficult, but they will hit a fly, then get ready for a fight!

They will eat almost anything so 10-15 inch artificial lures like rubber skirts or teaser birds on trolling lures for Tuna or Wahoo will work just fine. Since they respond very well to baitfish, sardines or mackerel will make perfect natural baits.

Get ready for an exciting battle.

It is important to remember that Dorado are determined fighters, so anglers should brace themselves for a tough battle. Get ready for numerous incredible jumps, each of which is a colorful breathtaking spectacle which will be impossible to forget. Dorado are FAST, and can rip line off the real at incredible speeds.

They're beautiful fish.

Their unique shape in combination with their almost glowing, greenish-blue golden appearance make the Dorado very appealing. Yet, as soon as the Dorado is pulled out of the water, that vibrant color very quickly drains into a watery blue.

Healthy and delicious to eat.

One of the best things about dorado fishing is that they are just so good to eat. This fish has many similarities to flavor and texture to the ever-popular tuna and swordfish. yet it contains its own unique qualities that make it among the tastiest of fish.

Second time I’ve done this particular trip. The steelhead run was awesome! The food was even better than the first time, which is hard to imagine, and our guide is the best there is!

If catching big fish is your thing I highly recommend booking through Outdoors International.

We had an incredible time fishing in Mexico. We've already booked our next trip and can't wait to go back!

I expected big trout on this trip based on all the stories I've read over the years, and I was not disappointed! I broke my own personal best rainbow trout record at least SIX times on this trip, with the biggest being a 16 pound beauty.

I will be going again soon!
