{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Cabo help

StripersOnline.com had some threads a while back about fly fishing Cabo. If I recall, it was mostly geared toward fly in the surf and there were a lot of notes of great fishing but terrible riptides and generally dangerous conditions when wading in the surf there.

Thanks Steve, great advice.  I'll check out Barilles and Ribera, renting a 4x4 and self guiding sounds like it's right up my alley.

The few fly-specific guides in and around Cabo are pretty expensive as guides go.  I took two inexpensive charters, one out of CSL and one out of SJdC, both disappointing.  I caught fish, but none came on the fly and they really didn't know how to cater to the fly.  As for DIY, the surf in and around Cabo can be a killer.  Two trips in the past two years resulting in 8ft surf on the first trip and 10-15ft surf on the second with storms offshore.  You may have better luck in March if you can find some protected water around the Hilton.  A good alternative if you have the time, is to take a day and drive up to Los Barilles or La Ribera.  You can rent a 4x4 for a fraction of the cost of a guide in CSL and the beaches are desolate, calm, and much more friendly to the fly.
