Nice catch! Nothing better than fighting a fish with your feet planted in the sand!

I agree Tito. We launched a tin boat last Tuesday and in short order had 4 BIG Sierra and 5 bigger Dorado just off the rocks. Filled the cooler quick!
I actually need a break....one of the rare times that ever happens to me. I've smoked most of the Sierra I've been catching and been giving fish away
like crazy. Going to Guadalajara today so I won't be tempted to fish for 5 days!

 Anyone can catch fish in a boat but only \"El Pescador Grande\" can get
them from the beach.
WOW great pic! What fun.....Skeet tells of getting these guys from the beach below Loreto,like the man said "nothing like warm water and
sand between your toes while hooked up with your favorite fish"
Congrats fella great catch.

I hope when my time comes the old man will let me bring my rod and the water will be warm and clear.

Hoo-boy, that sure looks like a great old time, amigo. I love fishing in any way, and have to say catching fish from the shore rates right up
there...especially from Baja's warm sandy beaches.
It was a while ago that we caught many dorado (and other species) from the concrete pier at Escondido south of Loreto. I remember spin-casting a
crocodile while standing next to local youngsters using the treble hook and line-round-the-can method. They'd accurately zip it out just past a
target and rip it back..snagging a dorado every now and then. They were having a ball...and so was I.
Another favorite shore spot was at the old El Patron Palapa bar out by the Mulege lighthouse. What could be better?...casting to the small dorado
splashing and feeding in the weed beds out front, giving a couple to the cook, but releasing most, then kicking back with a cold one. Baja at it's
finest.
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

I watched them catching roosterfish there in the same manner. Big, really big, schools of sardinas would come into that cove and park themselves next
to the pier. Alex caught his first dorado from my tin boat close to that pier. I'm not sure they let you fish from that pier any longer.

Saw a yellowtail caught from that pier in 1973. Salt from Isla Carmen used to be off loaded there. A ferry pier was built next to it for a Topolobampo
connection. It never materialized.

Hi Rob... if your post has any words with an accent mark, n with a tilde (snake) over it, or a degree symbol, none of the text will post.
This is a temp issue Doug will fix with the new Nomad software of the past month.
Also words with the letters c u l o together covert to 'burro' as in ridiculous (for example). There are others too.

Oh, that nightmare! LOL
Browse (attach files) has size limitations. I suggest you just do it the way most Nomads do, and post the IMG links from a remote photo hosting and
free web site, such as Photobucket.com. There are 6 easy steps to set it up with the correct size to not distort the page by being wider than the
Nomad limit of 800 pixels.
It is explained in the first post on the Nomad Baja Photo Gallery forum here... http://forums.bajanomad.com/viewthread.php?tid=65085
As always, I am happy to help!

I would hate to lose a mag darter @ $15 to $20 bones a copy. Are any of you fisherpeople feeling generous enough to tell me if the minnows or
jerkbaits by the same company are possibly as effective? The latter only run about $9 a copy.They all look to be of superior quality, even over
Rapala. I will be fishing the central coast from the beaches in Feb.
