Clarion Island is a little out of panga range from Cabo! But, nice fish nonetheless.

I have crossed paths with the Red Rooster and other long rangers many times on the tuna banks outside Mag Bay on the Soledad. I've never tried to
make the run down to Socoro or Clarion, however. Here is a photo of the Qualifier 105 as I found her one day last December at daybreak on Thetis
Bank. I was hoping to be the first one there, but she had spent the night on the hook. No yellowfin that day, but I did get a couple of hoos
trolling around her.

Google Earth guesses about 400 nautical miles (one way) from Cabo to Clarion Island. Bill, I'm not sure even your beloved Soledad has the tankage to
make that round trip!
Socorro Isl is much closer at 250 NM, but still out of range, unless you're loaded down with 55 gallon drums.

And then where would I put the fish? Guess maybe I'll stay closer to home.
