La Paz offers year round inshore and offshore fishing for a variety of species. However I was there for something exceptional: the chance to go after giant roosterfish from small open boats, known as pangas. We launched at a popular local spot (above), about a 45-minute drive through the desert from La Paz. Who needs a ramp, when you’ve got kilometres of sandy beach.
