The Sea of Cortez is one of the most abundant fishing
areas in the world. Just few of the more popular Baja sportfish are Black Marlin, Blue
Marlin, Striped Marlin, Sailfish, Yellow Tail, Wahoo, Dorado, Cabrilla, Groupers, Jack
Cravelle, Cabrilla, Yellow Fin, Rosterfish, and Sierra. |
|
The best months in Baja for the majority of the most popular sport fish
are April thru November (see chart below). But great fishing can be had any time of
year.
|
|
Most fishing is done aboard Mexican owned Ponga's and
Super Ponga's. Baja Joe's will assist in making arrangements with an experienced
fishing guide.
|
|
Baja Joe's is at the center of the fishing
action. An hour after you are on the water, you will see other fishing charters
arriving from Cabo San Lucas , San Jose Del Cabo, and La Paz. They will have motored
for hours to get to the hot spot that is right out your front door.
|
|
Although the Ponga's are usually the preferred method
of fishing, plenty of action can also be had from the shore, from a kayak, or in a
zodiac.
|
|
The abundance and variety of fish along with the endless variety of
fishing methods makes Baja any fisherman's dream.
|
|
And of course, at the end of every successful day,
comes the best part. We can suggest several ways to prepare your catch and provide
Baja's most scenic patio on which to dine.
