The Opal G2 from Beulah is a fabulous rod for powerful fish. Just like Roosterfish, these rods are fast, strong, and beautiful.

Baja is the best deal in saltwater fly fishing. Half of what a comparable tarpon or bonefish location costs.
Joe your videos are some of the best. Great info and very well put together.
Thanks. Solid content.
Appreciate it! Thanks for watching, I shot a bunch more content recently down there and will try to get that put together soon.
Great video Joe. Lots of very useful information. Thank you for the great service and helping me prepare for my upcoming trip to Baja Sea of Cortez. Looking forward to putting all of these tips and tricks into action!!
You bet Chris, thanks for the order BTW. Really appreciate it and good luck down there! Let me know how it goes.
Thanks Joe for the info.
You bet, hopefully a few anglers will stick some additional fish with a little extra coaching before the trip. Most of the guides aren't able to speak enough English to articulate themselves in regards to strategy so it's good to be prepared.
Soooo much fun man. Thanks for all you do. Heading to los barriles in a few days and gonna try my best;)
Looks like a great time. 👍
Good Stuff is right!! Great flick!
Thanks Joe
That’s a badass sombrero, señor José!
Only in Mexico, got it about 8 years ago and love that lid!
100% for the Galvan Torque! I use them in saltwater all the time. both of my Galvans have seen about 6 years of salt and still work and it's a hell of a value for what they cost and what you get for that money. I've never had a problem with the non sealed drag and I fish the surf all the time. I just wash them in fresh water after every season and they keep going and going. Ironically the reals I've had major problems with over the years were all "sealed" drags which almost never stay sealed so they break down from the inside while you think everything is fine (until it isn't).
What a great testimonial! Thanks for sharing. Right behind Tibor the Galvan Torque is a fabulous reel.
Sounds super fun!
It's a killer trip. When you get to see these fish absolutely blitzing Sardines it's insane. Nat Geo or BBC type moments.
@@redsflyshop when were you there, Joe?
@@cachi-7878 That is Bahia De Los Suenos. Awesome trip, check out Fly Fish Mex here on TH-cam. They have incredible footage.
Great video friend !!! Can you drop the guides names so we can support them? My bags are packed!! What is best months and times please ?
Fly Fish Mex - check 'em out on TH-cam. Their channel has insane footage. You can look 'em up. James Shaughnessy.
What’s the etiquette there in Baja when catching these rooster fish? Catch and release? Eat and mount? Thanks!
Good question, catch and release. The Captains will often bring them in the boat for a pic and unhooking - then send 'em on their way after a good revival.
Any tips for chasing roosters in Costa Rica’s Pacific waters as opposed to Baja?
I think the tackle and the general presentation is exactly the same, in Baja we throw sardines into likely water in order to find them and get a shot. Not sure if you'll have that option in CR or they are simply an ancillary catch.
Copy that! Appreciate the speedy reply! Videos are on point too bud well done. Followed
The flies don’t really matter when you’re chumming with bait. It’s pretty automatic.
Sounds like you've never been there.
@@redsflyshop lol. Ok.
I'm confused about the leader. You said you were just using one long continual piece of FC for the leader. So that means no tapered leader or adding tippet? I can run just straight fluoro? I have some tapered leaders with 25# shock tippet anyway but I'm asking just in case i break them off
Great question. One piece, no taper.
My Baja contact uses 4-6 feet of furled (twisted) leader with a barrel swivel where you add 3 feet of desired tippet. Super strength and turnover, no twisting of leader/lline. I had never heard of furled leaders but they are a thing. I will be in Loreto in July. He slays them there for a month every year.
@@bron2158 Interesting. Sounds pretty easy to manage.
I missed what kinda real your recommended and how longs your rod thanks don't catch all of em
I like a 9' rod, that is very standard. You don't want anything longer from an elevated boat. Regarding the reel, a Tibor Gulfstream would be my preference, but they are backordered for 6+ months right now at Tibor. Next choice for me is the Galvan Torque T-12.
So.... you have to use bait and teasers for fly fishing roosters like this? Just fishing with more steps. Using all the other forms of fishing to trick a fish into biting a fly. lol ok
That hat is obnoxious. Just sayin...
