my story
This is my story:
Great trip with a good bunch of guys. We did some serious fishing around Iisland San Roque and at San Roque Point. Fishfinder sceen went blank on day three which forced me to start paying attention to the signs much more than I usually do. It even made me fish areas I would not normally fish because I could not return to the marks I had on my GPS. Calico were big, 17" to 19". Sometimes they got into the way of yellowtail fishing. On the last evening there, we fished the beach from 9:00 pm till midnight for some non stop Croaker action fishing crocodiles First Dorado on a kayak, caught by trolling a megabait popper Personal best 11.2 pound Sheepshead. The fillets came home with me but the head was boiled down to make stock for clam chowder soup we had one night A days catch of yellowtail caught on megabaits in approx 200 feet deep water Zed hooked up to a yellowtail Hotel San Roque Svendawg's luxury suite Just for he record I didn't see any truck stuck in the surf. There were no pictures so it DIDN'T HAPPEN ![]() |

STAY! Good truck. ![]() ![]() Got one of these and 3 jacksmelt off of Pta Baja on mussel lips. ![]() Saw these after Catavina. Hey look, 3 ass' asses! ![]() Saw lots of these. ![]() Caught 7682 of these. ![]() Found a few of these. ![]() On these. ![]() Spent the first 1/2 day and the subsequent 2 days paddling and casting like a lunatic for these. Finally I tied on a more than decade old pili popper, and cast out as a test of distance and action. It worked well, and a curious dorado chased it to the boat. I cast again 90deg to my R and two pops and a miss, third pop and 2 are fighting over it and it came tight. Small but tasty. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Sheepheadhead. ![]() ![]() "I got some yellows and a dorado" beer. ![]() Clicked off a lot of miles and cranked a lot of yards, 100-200ft at a time. Wasn't wfo but it was interesting enough to keep at it. Water was Bombay blue and we could see structure in 60+ft. Flyers were the only bait around. I enjoyed the trip and company. I'm glad Bob you're getting better from your cold, and Sven too. We were worried about you, Sven. You slept the clock around on our departure day. Glad you bounced back for moonlight walks on the beach with your rod. Heh. Hasta proxima.

For some poeple a slow week in Baja can still turn out to be a GREAT trip which you will remember for the rest of your life. Do some research, get a few friends together and DO IT!!!
