Had a solid week of fun in La Paz.  First I have to thank Jonathan and Jill at Tailhunter International for another outstanding trip.  You guys rock and the new place you have on the Malecon is awesome!
Fished three days off shore and on non-off shore days fished the beac at the hotel.  We ended up with over 16 species of fish including:

Yellowfin tuna
Wahoo
Bonita
Dorado
Pargo
Cabrilla (sea bass)
Triggerfish
Amberjack
Cornet fish (trumpet)
Needlefish
Jack Crevalle
Horse eye jack
Ladyfish
Spotted bay bass
Pufferfish
lizard fish

We ended up bringing over 65lbs of fillets from wahoo, tuna, and dorado back with us. Outstanding trip!

BTW, one of the pics is troller we made on a dorado.  :smt002

Can't wait to go back for a third time real soon!

  Awesome report!  I did not see any kayaks, was it a non kayak trip?  I am renting this little place located 3 miles north of Los Barilles Dec. 26 - Jan 2 and would love to know if you kayaked anywhere near there?  I plan to take a super panga out at least one day while there but really will be happy fishing off the beaches if the weather is good.  Here is a link to the place I rented, looks nice!  We also have a place in the Bajia de Conception prior to the week on the East Cape!

You know what, her fish your fish it doesn't matter who caught how
many . It all comes down into one pot anyhow. Both of you eats an equal
amount of fish. It's the pride thing I know.  :smt005 :smt005 :smt044 :smt044
