Local Knowledge S1:E2 "Vamonos a la Baja (Part 1)"

This week in Episode 2 of Local Knowledge, Captain Ali Hussainy and Captain Rush Maltz are headed to Abreojos Grouper Fishing ; road trip style. They tow their Andros boatworks 32 south of the border with the lure of tapping some of the best grouper fishing they have ever seen with friend Julio Meza guiding them. But it’s not easy as they endure 450 miles of narrow roads and trailer-testing stress.
But the saltwater fishing at Punta Abreojos / La Bocana is worth the baja road trip and the big groupers don’t disappoint.
Starring - Rush Maltz, Ali Hussainy, Julio Meza

I just want yall to know how much inspiration you have givin me. You guys are the reason I want to start my own salt water fishing charter and get to meet all these cool people and make the trips. I love you guys and would love to fish with yall one day.

[@LocalKnowledge]

Man that's awesome! We really love to hear stories like this!

[@kevindavis4351]

I would cry fishing out there. All Catch and Release, knowing I'd be able to hook up on a trophy fish is crushing.

[@LocalKnowledge]

We'd love to put a few in the cooler but it's awesome to see them swim off.

[@WhiteGhost21]

done the drive ALL THE WAY to the TIP 4x (and once all the way up from the tip). a drive unlike any other.

[@LocalKnowledge]

Not for everyone but incredibly awesome.

[@surfk9836]

Dude, been doing Baja since the 70's. Driving at night is very sketchy. With a boat, forget about it. Just edited, your comment about the people in the Baja is spot on. A little Spanish and respect goes a long way.

[@LocalKnowledge]

We've been going since the late 80's and totally agree.The place is still magical.

[@Chrissurf]

Hide your weed in the mesquite carcoal....works every time...

[@jdlt4235]

I live in San Diego, been fishing on the piers and the rocks. Be nice to have a boat like that one day. What kind of boat is it. What’s the length.

[@LocalKnowledge]

We all started there. This is a 32' Andros.

[@oexsunsetbeach]

Best Show on TV!

[@Ge9118Ko]

You were fishing and staying in Abreojos,and you were baiting in La bocana...you are showing some places as La bocana when it is Abreojos and viceversa.

[@LocalKnowledge]

The magic of editing...

[@chrispeters3337]

Traveling that far towing ur boat, put some shockies on ur trailer, I'm from Australia and getting to the fishing spots even to the boat ramp the road is less traveled, long distances and bad roads (a lot of off road) best thing I did was put shock absorbers on my trailer, doesn't cost that much takes the bounce out of it, stops stress fractures and looks after your 100k plus boat,

[@michaeltorbisco8167]

Not having that thing bounce around for 600 miles doesn't sound like bad idea. Are you talking about torsion axles or piston shocks on the trailer?

[@chrispeters3337]

+Michael Torbisco big bore piston shocks foam cell is what i have. but as they are in and out of the salt water all the time they only last around 4 years but once they are in and set up they are easy to replace.

[@FishingwithBrewski]

Man the road grime must have been thick on her by the time you got there. Is there a reason you don't cover it?

[@LocalKnowledge]

We generally don't trailer boats covered. The cover can rub on the gelcoat and plastic and if dust gets underneath it can cause problems. For long hauls, we'll wipe the boat down with dish soap and let it try. Makes a slick film that helps the bugs come off much easier.

[@gregwebster8784]

I'll tell you one thing. You're nuts for driving that stretch at night. I see wrecks from the night before everytime I make that drive. Otherwise, rad video!

[@cmcmillan22]

how have i not found this channel before?

[@tonzkemireina]

Awesome video. What month would you recommend to visit Punta Abreojos?

[@LocalKnowledge]

They fall is really the best time. Grouper and yellowtail inshore and tuna and wahoo offshore.

[@garretdeckert1749]

now i no where all the sand bass went

[@LocalKnowledge]

No shortage down that way for sure!

[@hattrickll]

what type of setups were you using

[@AliHussainy]

+Jim Terrell All shimano gear. Talica 20's and 6' Terez rods.

[@hc8299]

Try driving a boat through Irish roads lol

[@LocalKnowledge]

We'd love to try it!

[@hc8299]

Local Knowledge Fishing Show love the dedication

[@stans9293]

You could have brought a 21' boat and made your lives a lot easier

[@LocalKnowledge]

But then we'd be fishing out of a 21' boat and we wouldn't have a cool story. :)

[@zacharykatsouleas9956]

Sand bass for bait lol. Sorry swba

[@LocalKnowledge]

When in Rome...

[@kauaicouple]

I appreciate the insight but if the first half of the video is the drive.....just sayin

[@AliHussainy]

luke johnson we are all about the adventure and we hear your feedback. More fishing coming up.

[@noahboyhong]

[@user-hd8ej8yx9p]

[@mrmidnight32]

Every episode that dam guy says "growing up in Sother California". Get a new script already.

[@AliHussainy]

Sorry, that "guy" is a little slow. We'll work on it. haha

[@LocalKnowledge]

We make sure to keep it simple for that "guy". Maybe season 3 we'll branch out. ahahah.
