Rooster Fish

Jeff Currier is back from a trip to the Baja for rooster fish, and had a great time. Roosters are fish of the surf–as you can see in the photo below–and anglers walk the beach and cast a relatively short line to these brutes. Better have a big reel loaded with a half mile of backing–there’s no boat to jump into and follow a running fish. For more details, click on Jeff’s link to the right.

A really fine rooster fish--the back fin gives this fish its name.
