Bryan (Bassin), here is an update for surfcasting from the beach at Cabo.

1. Do not use a swivel between the line and leader because fish there might bite the swivel and damage the line. (My son uses a 40 lb 100% fluoro leader, but fluoro can be problematic in this situation for anglers who do not know how to tie mono to fluoro.) A good quality snap swivel can be used at the lure.

2. A Gamakatsu stinger hook at the connector eye of the lure will increase the hookups.

3. I was wrong about the line in my report. It was 15 lb, not 20 lb.

4. Apparently the Ranger lure is not available at Hi's Tackle in San Francisco. In norcal it is sold at the Outdoor Pro Shops (not affiliated with Bass Pro Shops) in Rohnert Park and Emeryville/Oakland. Check the web for Ranger lures.

5. Scent helps, but do not be sloppy by getting it beyond the lure and hooks.



1.
