Rods for Mexico
In December I’m heading to Zihuatanejo Mexico and planning on spending a few days fishing out of a panga. Mix of both inshore and offshore and am wanting to bring some of my own gear. Last time I fished out of a panga the gear was very much on the rough side, but it was a different area.
Wanting to bring two conventional rods/reels down and I’m having trouble figuring out how heavy of rigs I should take. They do mostly trolling. One would be trolling live bait for roosterfish. The other one I would use offshore trolling where they catch mostly sailfish, but also Dorado and marlin. Doesn’t need to be super light tackle, but I don’t want overkill or it takes the fun out of fighting the fish.
Anyone have any suggestions that have made a similar trip before for rod/line weight? Thanks.
