There are rentals though that you can use. The Two Harbors has camp ground a 1/4 mile from the landing, and the kayak store at the landing.

At Avalon, there are two places, but you cannot go too far from them.

Let us know how you did it.

Hashem, we met on the mole in Avalon a few years back and it was my first education in California fishing. I hope to fish with you again soon. Last summer we camped in little harbor on the backside of Catalina and fished out of rental kayaks there. It was great fishing but the campsite was very busy.

My dream was kind of rejuvenated this year...after 35 years of crashing around Baja I got kind of bored...went on a whim down to Mako Bobs place last May (and again in Oct), met some great people, had a 100 fish day and caught my personal best rooster...my fire has been re kindled! This could lead to me building a place down there (very long time dream has been to have a place in Baja)....thanks Roberto!!!!

If I see a picture, I may remember better. I meet so many people during my outings.

I will be there this Tuesday and Wednesday.

Bob, thanks for the sentiment. Roosters are on my list of fish to catch. So many excellent sports fishers to target in Baja. Maybe Bufeo roostets next fall. Mike

This has been a year of fishing dreams for me. Bought me a fancy pedal kayak, caught me one them big rooster fishies on the yak, made some new fishing friends, currently packing the car for my fifth Baja run of the year and taking my wife/dtr this time. I can only hope that next year is nearly as good. Roberto Mako, thanks for everything you've done to get me off my ass and fulfilling some dreams!

Paul, you did it, got your wife and lovely daughter to Asuncion.
Jim you made it to Asuncion with a FULLY loaded truck two years in a row.
And Jeff you made the trip for a FOURTH consecutive year. Tortilla report?
Richard it was year two for you.
Jim also found his own fossil shark tooth, and sand dollars.
The REST of you guys missed out again. Maybe next year???

The tortillas were fine after dipping them in the broth and cooking on my cast iron skillet. I bought some eye of round and cooked it and it was decent but needs more work. I will try brisket next as it does not dry out as much as the eye of round especially if the point and flat are both cooked together.

Jeff, how were the tortillas on day two and three?? Thanks.
