Hi guys, I know some of you are protective of your "spots", but I sure would appreciate some good numbers for my GPS. I'm going out of Alamitos Bay tomorrow and I would love to hook into some of those beauties that I'm seeing you all holding up on this site.
Thanks,

Jan

These are the general areas everybody uses, but for Dorado you need to find something floating in the water (paddy), preferably near one of the high spots. I gave you some other useful numbers

Good luck Chris
