SaltwaterSeason not confirmedPuerto San Carlos — Magdalena Bay

This fly-only outfitter works Magdalena Bay on the Pacific side of Baja California Sur and puts its guests up at a beachfront hotel in Puerto San Carlos. From October to January its custom pangas run offshore to striped marlin feeding on bait balls; from May to July they stay in the shallows of the bay to sight-fish for roosterfish and large snapper. A local captain and a guide go out on every boat, and the crews tag marlin for a billfish study.
