Back from the East Cape

[Jim Sammons LJKF]

This fish was hooked maybe a mile from the beach, certainly in paddling range. With that said we always have a support boat with us on our trips to Baja. It gives our clients more fishing time and less time spent paddling to a location. Not only that there is a very real danger when catching bill fish and the boat is there as a safety measure. We have had fights on bills as long as five and a half hours that covered 15 miles so the boat comes in real handy for the run back. The fish are hooked fought and landed from the kayak.
Like I said though these fish can be caught easily within paddling distance from shore.
