I plan on bringing a Shimano Bait Runner 12000D with 50lb braid with 30lb mono top shot on a Phenix PSW-760M; Diawa Lexa 400XS with 50lb braid on a Jaws 8' rod; Okuma Andros 12SII with 60lb braid on a UC 76 Predator.  Considering bringing my Avet SX Raptor with 40lb braid as well.  Counting the days ;D

Questions:
I have fished SD/Northern Baja from really small boats quite a bit. My preferred rod length is as long as possible and I've never felt hampered by a long rod in a small oat. The more I read about Panga fishing, the more it seems that short rods are preferred, should I only bring 6 footers for the boat?

Second, it seems there is some dock fishing to be done. Does anybody have any experience down there as to rigs, bait etc. Sitting on a dock watching a rod while drinking a beer is about as relaxing as it gets.

I don't have a problem with 8'ers on the Pangas. Shortest rod I've used there was a 6'6" 6465h.

Mike, I have a Battle 6K and a Shimano Teramar TMS-80XXH with 40# on it.  I caught YT on it at Benitos a few years back.
Thanks for the offer, Fish Hog, but I need to start using my reels. I keep flying to the west coast and using boat rods and/or loaners. My reels are becoming expensive paperweights. I'll confine myself to just using some of your tackle  :)

Anybody want/need a NIB soft sided cooler to bring back fish? I purchased two of these a year ago but haven't used one of them. I use mine as a suitcase going out and a cooler for fish coming back. It has kept fish frozen for up to 12 hours flying back from the west coast. It only weighs 3 lbs empty. I've carried 45 lbs of frozen fish back from PVR and SAN with room to spare with no problems. No wheels, so you have to CARRY it. Should work great for the charter flight to/from Cedros.
Here's the link:

I paid $72 each (on sale) and I'll let it go for $60 and a cold Tecate or shot of Don Julio. And I'll even bring it to SD.

You don't need to take it to Cedros.  You need a cooler in your car at the airport.

I assumed they meant hard sided dedicated fish coolers stayed in the US. I was planning on this being my "suitcase" with my 35# weight limit going out. And I wouldn't need to use their returnable cooler coming back. I guess I'll wait for Rosie to chime in with her recommendation. If no, I'll just have to leave it in someone's vehicle at CBX. My car will still be in Atlanta.  :)

One of Rosie's bullet points...

*   Your fish will fly back with you in cooler bags.  After you transfer your fish to your cooler, I will need to get the cooler bags from you as they are our rotating stock.

You all got the email from Rosie saying that CS won't be providing sinkers and to bring your own?

Yep, don't plan on bring a lot.  Some sliders and a few torpedo's

Rosie suggests 4oz, 6oz, 8oz, and maybe a 10oz. I'm going to bring 2-3 of each.

I'll bring a few. That's pretty crappy not to replace borrowed stuff that's lost. Ends up inconveniencing all of us.
