LA Bay fishing guides
we went in may and really liked it so since there are no tuna (yet!) in asuncion we figured we'd hang out on the pac side and go fish bahia.
leave pac side around 9am and drive across. find a guide for the following morning. get a hotel and enjoy the afternoon.
anyone want to recommend a guide and/or place to stay along with prices? we're hoping for dorado and YT and some cabrilla.

We have always stayed with Ruben Daggett at his location north of town. He has always been our guide and one of his sons comes along and does most of
the work. Ruben and Amanda are great people! There a couple of different
options for camping whether in one of his rooms or the small palapas.
He puts us on whatever type of fish we are looking to catch. YT, Dorado, bottom fish, just tell him what you would like to catch.
There are plenty more guides in BOLA that have been mentioned here more than once. I do not have any personal experience with any of them and do not
know current prices as it has been a couple of years since we were down.

Daggett's is the place to go, I'll second that. We love it there. The service. The view. Went out a few times...treated the kids very well.
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

My favorite guide in BoLA is Igor Galvin. Not only does he put you on the fish but he also speaks perfect english so I get a chance to learn about the
area while pulling on fish.

Casa del Sol is on the right hand side of the road going south into town. Igor is Guillermo's son over at Guillermo's which is a bit further south on
the opposite side of the road from Casa del Sol.

Very nice of everyone to share good information and welcome Woody to an area you enjoy so much
(not much heavy lifting)
No worries

I'll throw in another vote for Igor. He really REALLY knows the waters and has a great boat. Last time we fished there over the summer I think Ruben
came aboard to help him out for the day so it was a great one two punch...those guys really know their stuff.
Igor though is heavily into the Baja 1000 so I would assume would not be available during the race. But get him talking about it, and you'll have a
friend!

Daggett's has a motel right there too. We leave everything in too. I feel very secured at Daggett's
