We made a drive today to a remote Pacific beach. Our target fish – anything. But we were disappointed when we arrived. Todays swells and crashing waves were huge. I can fight the waves to a degree timing casts and running back out of the crashes but the acres of churned up sand lowered my confidence. I would have had to hit a fish right between the eyes for them to have found my fly.
Regardless of the tough conditions, I fished hard. Granny opted out. And I got skunked. But there was some excitement. I spotted a large 20lb plus roosterfish surfing the outer waves. Spotting him was extremely inconsistent and he never came close enough to the beach for me to reach him. The good news however, Granny packed us another delicious lunch. It was our leftover chicken dinner from last night – perfect!
Despite being 2022, internet is sparse in remote parts of Baja. Furthermore, after a 10-12hr fishing day on the salt, it’s hard to get the blogs out on time. They will be delayed but they will come in full. Stay tuned!
In the meantime, please visit my webstore for “Christmas Gifts for the Angler that has Everything” and stuff those stockings with my fish decals from “Pescador on the Fly”.
