metau Report post Posted December 2, 2017 I will be back from China in time for the holidays and am planning on taking a week for vacation before heading back over here. I want to relax on a beach for a week and get a few days of fishing in while I am there. I primarily fly fish, but have always wanted to try my hand at pelagic species. I've done the Bahamas for bones in October, but not sure where would be a good choice for December/January. I've been look at the pacific side of Costa Rica and Panama, but am also curious about places closer, like Cabo. If anyone has any thoughts or recommendations, I would love to hear them. Thanks.

Personally I have always wanted to go to Tropic Star. because theres nothing to break the swell coming in like in cabo san lucas. you will get sucked out to sea quick. panama has great fishing but its way off shore compared to costa rica. meaning the boats are way more expensive if you want to go for marlin and big tuna.

SunDevil Report post Posted December 3, 2017 San Jose del Cabo is on the Sea of Cortez side of the Baja and is safe. You are thinking of the places that are on the Pacific Ocean side of Cabo San Lucas Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You are thinking of the places that are on the Pacific Ocean side of Cabo San Lucas No I'm thinking of San Jose del Cabo, you can't go in the water on hotel row. The waves still hit square maybe you're thinking of east cape. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
