Concepcion is one of my favorite places Ive been in Baja. Not for the fishing but its unique geography --was able to dogpile a UCSB trip group while there and learned a lot. I could spend weeks there. I saw amazing natgeo stuff diving around in the bay and mangroves. The water was super salty and I was way more buoyant than I was used to. It stung the eyes.

Mulege is very interesting too w the river. It reminded me of an oasis. Keep an eye on the Sierra. If theres thunderstorms up there the water in the river can go to flood fast w fair weather at the mouth. Enjoy the trip and take your time to explore as much as you can.

Man that's a long way to go for 4 days. You can find a little beach road from San Bruno to Punta Chivato that has many great camping spots. The road from Mex 1 to Punta Chivato is not a good road. Camping is the only option at Chivato these days. I was in that area last May and found Lotz of roosters but non of any size. The locals say the Dorado fishery had really gone downhill in the last 5 years. Mulege and Chivato have several Dorado tourneys every year and a he largest fish weighed in over the past 2 years has been 12 lbs. Definitely amberjack on the reefs. Sharks were a problem for me. Lost $50 worth of XRaps in about 30 seconds. Hotel Rossman is always open if you get nearby.
