DId something like that on Ambergris Cay in Belize years ago. I brought along a 5.5' spincast rod, a 404 Zebco with 10# line and a handful of lures. Locals said I wouldn't catch anything off their long docks, but I caught 2 barracuda, 2 small bonefish and a blue runner. The bonefish stripped the gears on the 404 Zebco 😆, but fun.

Nice! That rod does look a tad whippy but it makes it fun. From what I'm seeing they could be Pacific Jacks and they can be many colors.

I have traveled to Costa Rica several times with poles. I take 2 piece rods and take them in a piece of PVC with caps on the ends with tape. They should have some mackerel there like in Costa Rica that look exactly like a Spanish mackerel in the Gulf but they can be 3' long. And jacks that look the same plus other species, and there ought to be a couple kinds of snook there. Oh and rooster fish, and snapper. I really miss fishin' in the Pacific on the beach and offshore. I think I paid an extra $40 to take my PVC tube with rods in it last February and I took 4 so it was definitely cheaper than getting rods there. Plus the quality of the stuff there is either terrible or crazy expensive. The name of jacks in Spanish is Jurel, it sounds like who-rel, if you're interested in learning Spanish names of the fish.

Aloha. Granted I don’t take my rods everywhere, but I’ve taken them to Mexico, Louisiana, and Alaska. Two reels, tackle, pliers, and a knife in my bag, and tube for a couple rods(2 piece). Like using my own gear that I trust and have already paid for.

I recommend investing in a Hurricane Mako telescopic medium heavy rod, it’s under 2 feet long collapsed. It’s a good travel all around rod. The tip is sensitive enough for small fish as well.

There you go, running off to Mexico! So who do you have minding the store, and how long will you be there? When I lived in California, I use to sneak down to Baja every now and then. Cobo San Lucus is absolutely amazing fishing from the beach. Those Sierras do seem to get a little bit bigger than the Spanish Mackerel, and are pretty common in surf throughout the Sea Of Cortez. You can even catch Derrango ( Mahi- Mahia) off of the shore in some places! You will have a great time for shure.👍👍
