We fished from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. with very good weather and a very calm sea today, good for fishing along the beach. We fished the Pacific side beaches and also the beaches on the Sea of Cortez and around the Hotel Solmar. I fished with 2 clients, Juan M. Crespo and his son Rodrigo P. Crespo. We had a good catch of 6 roosterfish with 3 of them at 3 to 5 pounds, and 4 sierra of 2 to 3 pounds. The anglers were visiting Cabo San Lucas from Mexico City.
