BAJA or BUST 2017 Trips - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Mahigeer · 10-14-2015, 06:47 PM

Thanks for the update Sir.

These hot days we are having in LA are like "Spring training" for fishing in Baja.

I got lots of small lures, maybe I should get more!!

Two fly rods and homemade flies to experiment with.

See you in Vista soon.

Was the trolling speed reached with Mirage drive or paddles? My guess is the Mirage drive.

stop playing around, bring some big boy tackle, hike out to the bird shit rock at bufeo at low tide and catch one of these, in ten feet of water....

...i was chasing yellow snapper around a rock when i went face to face with this big mother.

Way to go Danny, been feeding those puppies for years. Yep it is hard to get the guys in close enough the other problem is that they almost always rock you. Nice fish?

this was the only cabrilla i took from the point. i was hanging out in massive balls of bait and watching the sierra absolutely go nuts. also hanging out shallow and hunting the VERY skiddish yellow snapper.....also stumbled upon a small DOGGY SNAPPER which made quite the meal.

visibility wasn't too great inshore. Our highspot on the other hand greeted us with 60 foot visibility and no shortage of Pargo, cabrilla and even a teenage gulf grouper.

Guys headed down, TONS of gill netting pangas out fishing every day/evening/night. tons of bait.

good luck and safe travels

Bob, if you could gather any info about the house for lease up the road that would be awesome!

Will do Dannowar. Thanks for the tip.
My (2) two speed Avets are ready to go along with some smaller Shimanos. #60 braid with red Seaguar #25-30 top shot.

I got big Krocks and some poppers in different sizes. My go-to iron is Salas 6 X Jr. in scrambled.
I even have some knock-off flatfall lures.

Tied some weird looking flies with lots of flash on them. One even has lead wire, so it can sink.

Is that fish from the current trip, or previous ones?

Dannowar · 10-14-2015, 09:50 PM

The cabrilla is from Sunday afternoon. I really hope you score dude!
