The Perlas in Panama are AWESOME!!!

Several have had Alaska on their bucket list. If you need more information about Alaska fishing I have been there several times working up there in some of the best fishing areas in Alaska and would be happy to suggest places to go.

My short list is to get lost in the boundary waters of northern Minnesota for a week or so.

I spent 8 years in Minnesota getting an education in undergrad and chiropractic school.

I have always wanted to go there but alas it never happened.

The only reservation I would have is that the mosquitos there are legendary.

After seeing the power and speed of the Pelagics in gonzaga last year, 40+lb rooster is my #1. I won't ever stop fishing til I get it. (Won't stop anyways)

#2 would have to be a bull dorado over 30lbs. Both very attainable, just not in this country ;)

In no particular order...
• Peacock Bass (anywhere there's big ones)
• El Salto for LM bass
• Alaska for shallow water rock fish and Lings
• Rooster Fish
• 5 day skiff trip/kayak trip for Calicoes
• smallmouth (anywhere they're big)

Yellowtail

10pd# dine , 15 pd# greenie , 10# bluegill I aim high so I will always keep trying

Top of the list is to kayak to Catalina and camp hopefully within the year..
All from a kayak unassisted.

•Dorado
•halibut
•yellowtail
•bulefin
•thresher
•WSB
•Sheaphead

Come to Baja and fish and your wish will be granted almost immediately as your lure hits the water.
