Mexico Bass Fishing
If
you are a bass fisherman there is no better place to reel in trophy size
bass than the mountain lakes of Mexico. It is an awesome experience. Lakes
like Huites, Baccarac, Guerrero, Comedero, Mateos and El Salto produce
some of the best bass fishing in the world. On any given cast, you could
pull a 10lb bass out of these lakes. Try any one of these lakes and you
will be hooked on Mexican Bass Fishing for life.
The bass fishing season runs from the middle of October to end of May, with the peak season generally being January through April. Many of the lodges are sold out during this time so we recommend that you lock in your dates as soon as you know you want to try this experience.
