San Quintin in August - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

aguachico · 07-15-2007, 08:10 PM

The best way to fish SQ and the entire area is the way Dave did it. Go to SQ, rent a panga and tell them what you want to do. Kelly of KM has yaks and knows that area best. He's also a surfer and will steer you away from any non-yak surf. SAn Martin, the 6spot and the 240 reef hold much more WSB, YT and Hali then the kelp along the shore. If the that were not true and the pangas would be there instead of at the island. The shore fishery falls prey to commercial netting.

The nets are another reason you have to be careful as they are sometimes set inside the kelp and roll in the surf.

So, do your homework. Go with an experienced person. and always always always stop at the El Recreo taco stand in Maneadero - it's 1k south of the La Buf turn off. It's on the west side of the highway. Order the queso tacos 2 carne, 2 pastor and you will never look at another taco the same way.

If you want a sit down breakfast "Jalisco" is 1/2k south of El Receo. West side of the mex1.

Art, thanks for the eatery suggestions...

When I was there a few weeks ago, we stopped at a place (El Rodeo?)in SQ. When we saw the veterinarian
next door, we opted for another eatery...as it turns out, it supposed to be the best
place in town...

I fished the ramp south of SQ 10 times from June last year to Feb. this year and made it out safely each time.....the largest swell was 8ft. at the bouy but this time of the year are usually ankle slappers.
