Hooks, some trolling stuff, florocarbon, tequila and more tequila! The past years I've brought too much stuff maybe its all the hype....Joey some of those guys on the super pangas have the right trolling stuff if you are going for Marlin....Flipper also knows we brought stuff last year we didn't even use...........mostly use live bait, bring $$ to buy the live bait you'll be chumming with the stuff also...bring some crocodiles to maybe catch some bonita so you could use those for bait also! 1 Trolling Rod with atleast 60# line, 7' sticks for tossing baits line class 15# to 40# line with spectra backing....your basic California stuff from Calico to Yellowtail rods will be fine!

I'm bringing:
15# - Calstar 700XL / Avet SX
25# - Calstar 700ML / Accurate 270
40# - Calstar 700H / Accurate 870
60# - Seeker 6455XH / Avet Pro 30/2 - barely used last year

Jonathan suggests green line on reels, but I caught fish on clear and green last year.

Check out Jonathan's tackle list:
Jonathan Roldan's "bare necessity" La Paz sportfishing tackle list, for the ultimate Baja fishing adventure.

If the Dorado are chewing like they were last year, I had a absolute blast fishing 15# line!
