Mother ship trips, San Martin Island
Imagine yourself and three friends on your kayaks fishing San Martin Island in Baja. It’s 5am and you are heading out to the island, it can happen. Mini Mother ship trips. You and your yak and buddies delivered to the island. You made bait on the way out, it’s time to fish! It is June and the halibut are hungry. It’s August and the WSB are around. Maybe you just want to fish the lings. Perhaps you and your friends want to target the tuna or YT in the area. Tubers, boarders, these trips might be great for you too!
The concept is to deliver 4 anglers with their kayaks to San Martin Island. Let you fish the day and come back that evening. To start delivery boats will be a panga. One method of yak delivery will be by racks mounted to the panga. I am also considering a system to tow the kayaks. If you have ever done a river float trip you might be able to picture what I have in mind. A cataraft with a rack for 4 kayaks. This would leave more room in the panga and make it easier to make bait on the way out. You would drive into San Quintin, swing in to Don Eddie’s, right next to the Old Mill. You get a welcome beer. You stay that night, you get dinner. Next day you fish San Martin. Breakfast is served before you leave, you get a box lunch for your day of fishing. Dinner is served after your day on the water. The next morning after breakfast you head home. It would cost each person in your group of 4 only $160 apiece. Included would be everything except your drinks, fish cleaning and tips. To stay an extra day, room and food would be $45 a day per person. The panga would be $320 a day split by your group. This is still in the planning stages. There is a lot of work to be able to make this happen. I am not and will not be involved with this financially. I am helping to get this going so that OUR community can have access to a world class fishery to fish from their kayaks. If the cataraft towing sled system works out I will DONATE it to Don Eddie’s. PLEASE help, I NEED to get your input and suggestion NOW, pro and con, this is for all of us! This is just the start of what WE as a community can do. Thank you all for our wonderful community!

Kelly can probably take 4 rigs to the island
I think to make sense if yyou camp one night on the island and fish the next day so you get 2 days of fishing out of you're $160 If you just go fishing with Garcia pangas It will be about 100 to 120 including the tip and fish cleaning Per angler (4 guys ) If you want a really clean room and bed try Jardins Just my 2 cents |

Camping the night is a great idea.

Permit is needed, and is available in Ensanada for about $4.00.

So if we added another day it would bring it to 3 days and nights for 285 to include two breakfasts, two dinners and 2 panga trips? Seems like a good deal if that is correct. I would be interested in the white sea bass trip. |

Jeff, your numbers are RIGHT. It would be a good trip. However people can add non mothership days for less than $45.00 a day and fish the bay or beaches.....There are a lot of posibilities. Tight lines and bloody gaffs!

Kayaks at San Martin? Drive all the way down to San Quintin to catch White Sea Bass? Ummm...okay. I might need 4 game clips. I'm tentatively in on both trips. Keep my name way up high on the list Bob. Thanks for doing this. Jim

Ful-rac, Deamon, Buddha, and Rhyak welcome aboard! These trips will allow some of us another chance at a PB.
Also, eventually we should be able to target, Yt, Tuna, WSB, Halibut, Lings, Reds, an Dorado in season from our yaks! The mother ships make all the difference i the world to be able to reach these fish. Tight lines and bloody gaffs!
