Destination: Cabo - The Long Way - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

T-Rex · 06-13-2010, 01:53 PM

Wow...should be an awesome trip! I've sailed to Cabo and back a couple of times and each trip was memorable.

One suggestion would be to bring a marine SSB transceiver or radio so you can get long range weather forecasts. July and August always have the chance of a hurricane.

Good luck on an adventure of a lifetime!!!

I'm sure the question we're all wondering is 'how the heck are you gonna keep all that beer cold?'

Good luck dude, hope it's a fishy trip for you. Look forward to the pics.

Godspeed Dave. That's a a true adventure.

In terms of a baja network, I would suggest that you post you journey on BajaNomad.com. They have a tight network of old baja hands who can provide a lot of support.

You're a brave and ambitious man...I like that! I've never met you, but I'd like to offer any support I can. My only Pacific side of Baja connect is in Erendira. I can put you in touch with some fisherman that are (3 generations) native to the area if need be. PM me for details, I'd be happy to help. Best of luck and safety to you

we all know IPA sucks when it gets over 50 deg.

Good luck.Interested in how you plan on resting,camping ,showering, sleeping etc.

How many miles you cover per day will depend on 2 factors I am sure,weather and fishing.Dont let yourself run out of fresh water and hopefully you habla espaniol a little....

My advice is to not cut any corners on safety gear.
I'd like to hear what you will be carrying on the kayak.

SAT Phone, EPIRB, offshore life jacket, good laser flashlight, water, salt tablets, potassium, Bullfrog with titanium dioxide, etc.

Good Luck - be safe.
