Hey there, There's a town about 1 hr. north of San Jose Del Cabo airport called Los Barriles on the Sea of Cortez. Aprox. 5 miles to the south starts a beach which continues running south for several miles and can be loaded with Roosters. I fished the area last June from a Panga using Sardinas (sardines) and sight casting, caught 1 about 10 lbs. and saw many more to about 50 lbs.
The fish seemed to be extremely skittish as the water is crystal clear. People I talked to said as far as lures go, any type of topwater and or minnow type baits would work. Spent half a day for the Roosters and the rest offshore.
I don't know who to contact as far as getting permission to access the beach but there are some nice resorts in the area with some fine captains who know how to catch fish. I stayed at Palmas De Cortez but there are many more in the area. Hope the info helps.
