Will be in San Carlos second week of June for a family gathering. Brother-in-law has a 22 ft sail boat berth there and has fished off the boat but is not a fisherman.
Would like to take tackle for trolling/jigging. What terminal tackle should I take to target Dorado, Sailfish and Yellowfin?

Thank you for the reply. Read the tackle info. Not familiar with cedar plugs. Is this what is is being refered to?

| Or... If you've got some time on your hands and a pocket knife, you can make your own. I whittled these out while I was waitng for my boat to be repaired. Attachment: homemade plugs by Robert.jpg (Downloaded 151 times) Last edited on Thu Feb 7th, 2008 09:55 pm by bahiatrader

Cedar plugs are just what the name implies-a plug made from cedar wood which as a hook on one end and small lead nose-they ahve caught just about everthing that swims and should be a part of all salt water tackle bags. Your cabellas link is accurate.

| His name was Roberto. He had a boat yard up the street from a little store on the main drag right across from the hill that Gringo Pete's hotel is on. I think he's a pretty fair mechanic, and he speaks excellent English. Some people swear by him, and I've sworn at him. I've had him do work for me a couple of times on my I/O , and he's done OK. Pero, esta Mexico, the land of mañana. Mañana simply means, "Not today".

By the way, cedar plugs are sometimes a killer for salmon in the Pacific Norhtwest I was taught to make them by Isaac Bob's father, Big Punk Bob of the Siletz tribe.
The first cedar plugs were probably made out of Western Red Cedar or Port Orford Cedar.
