Like Gadget,I just returned from that zone myself..
The normal San Carlos road south of El Rosario is in the best shape in years..we took that in last sunday.We took the road out to Pta Baja on thursday
at a very leasurly pace..Looking a t all the little beaches along the way. Love that drive..some heavy washboard in places but overall no problem..we
took about four hours. wish iwas there now.
the bay at San Carlos was ALIVE!! I wasn't fishin but the bait was going NUTS..The pascaderos said it was just "chiles" feeding on small
anchovie..(still not sure what a "chile" is)....I never saw big boils in the bait but, GOTTA be something around there...We had four days of no wind
and tropical conditions(dumb luck!)..kayak and a rubba dub would have been fun!Good luck!
Couple of piccies of the road to Pta Baja...

Here you go Steve, check it out: http://vivabaja.com/1205/
We went down the coast road from Punta Baja and returned on the San Carlos road... It meets Hwy. 1 at Km. 80-81 which is 14 1/2 miles from El
Rosario...

What kind of fish is a "chile" in english?

Don't know...asked the guy (rodney) who works at Solo and he said that is what they call them.....
they are about 10-12 " long...sleek....very agressive ...small mouth ...slight yellow(?) color on side fins near gills.....
not good to eat....

Chile = lizardfish
That is according to Bill Mathias, author of DICTIONARY OF SPORTFISHING English-Spanish (and my neighbor in Oro Valley)....
He was written up in WON as the Roosterfish (pez gallo) catch and release king a few years ago...
