Phil and Donna Moran Fishing the Baja

My husband Phil and myself have fished there for the last 2 years (first year with Ross) and are going back again this year. A wide variety of fish was caught but our best day was when we caught 17 rooster fish in 1 day between us. Phil had 9 and I had 8 and it was a truly magical day. The record before that was 5 caught in a day so I think the Brits showed the Yanks how to do it that day!!

We had a variety of Dorado, Yellow Fin Tuna, Skip Jacks, Bonita, and you just don’t know what you are going to catch from one day to the next. I had a lovely 12 lb Skippy on my 9 wt rod which was fun to say the least.

Phils last catch of the week was a lovely Jack Crevalle weighing 10lb and fought like hell.

Dates were 28th Sept - Fri 3rd Oct 2008
Tackle used was Sage XI2 and Sage TCR’s 9 - 12 wt with Sage and Mako reels
