Everyone definitely has you covered on this one! A few lead heads and plastics are also a nice addition if for no other reason, than to see how the triggers mangle them! If you wrap it carefully for the cooler (I'm sure we all have our horror stories) some squid as bait almost guarantees you dinner. Spotted Bay Bass (in the north) are so plentiful they are often scorned but their firm flesh is better than 99.9% of the "fresh" fish you can buy in any market in the states. Ok...maybe I exaggerate but not by much ;D

I have had good luck with the Berkley artifical bait. I've been using the saltwater peeler crabs.

Fish whatevery looks good to you...but especially water with rocky points and dropoffs along your route. Good luck..Tight lines.

Perhaps you didn't see Dennis' post, or you are affraid to confront his 'correction'... it wasn't me. I was asking the OP where in the sea (spelling it correctly, but not pointing out the typo).

I've seen them catch Dorado off the pier in Puerto Escondido, but that was a couple of years ago 1973. Get the fishing book Baja Catch by Kelly and Kira, it will tell you all about the tackle, fish and fishing spots, that you will ever need.

Gregg...

I did exactly that...off the pier in Puerto Escondido south of Loreto in the early 70's. Dorado, cabrilla, yellowtail...all kinds. Take your lawn chair, a filet knife, some ziplocks, and a cooler...spend the day.

I haven't been to too many, but I kinda suspect this may have been the best pier fishing there ever was!!




I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

Yes, that was a fine pier.

Everyone camped along Escondido (before the marina) would head for the pier after supper and spend the eve fishing and socializing. It was a magnet. There was no launch ramp. You just tied your boat to your palapa.

It wasn't a correction. It was a "play on words" and harmless. My only regret is that it wasn't the first in this thread.
