As a kid we caught a lot of trigger fish and calico bass … the pangas are cheap find someone beached and ask to take you out for a day.

Spend the extra gas and time, drive another 100 miles to Gonzaga and have the chance to catch more and bigger fish. From San Diego you are talking 6 hours + border crossing time. The fishing is so much BETTER.

That's what I would rather do, but we are renting a house in san felipe and don't want to stray too far from there. This is my girlfriends first time in Mexico and she's scared because of all the news. I think san felipe may be my only option, if it was just me and my friends we would go wherever.

I use to hook up with a guide down there name Jose Luis, he usually is wearing a Dodgers hat, but if you ask around for him you'll find him. There's a lot of guides down there but he's always put me on fish. Make sure you eat at the Taco Factory and Rice and Beans when you are down there, the Nacho Factory is a plate at the Taco Factory is one I recommend while eating there, and at Rice and Beans, you will get a lot of food for your money. Both places over look the water, and they have great food.

http://www.eldoradoranch.com/san_fel...Directions.htm There are two maps for driving down to San Felipe, I personally like coming back home through the more eastern entry into America, and going down through the closer one. If you follow these maps you'll be fine.

I havn't fished there before yet but we stop there every year for the Baja 1000 and have a blast. If you guys stop at Bar Miramar order you and your chick a "Chabella", We stop and get them every time. Its like a Michilada but better, you won't be disappointed!
Also I just recently came back from San Felipe and I had the best Chinese food I have ever had in my life (And it was inexpensive). I would def recommend that too. Im gonna be passing thru there this weekend with MakoBob on our way to GB and stop there for lunch Ill get the name of the place. If I remember it was right when you got in to SF.

Guys I would love to take my wife down there in maybe a year, we rarely go on vacation. Do you think such a trip is kids friendly? I have a 3 year old that has never left the orange county.

Awesome, thanks for the tips guys, the house we were looking out is at rancho el dorado. I think my buddies may be backing out, so I might have to come up with a plan b. I hope I can still convince them to go
