We started smoking fish in the Oregon 48 years ago in a old refrigerator that we turned into a smoker. 

We worked on the brine recipe over the years and have one that people seem to enjoy. Our brine uses less salt than most commercial smokers use and we use a very special blend of spices that we import from Texas. 

We also use apple wood chips imported from the state of Washington, as we have found that for fish, it gives a sweet smoke flavor. 

We only use the hot smoke method and reasoning behind this is to kill the parasites that are in fish. We bring the internal temperature to 165 degrees which takes care of any problem with parasites. All the fish that we smoke to sell is bought fresh from local fishermen. 

Baja Fish Smokers provides smoked fish to a number of local restaurants here in San Jose Del Cabo. We have a passion and great enjoyment in smoking fish. It is so rewarding, when someone tastes our fish and tell us it is the best they have ever tasted.

Many newcomers to Los Cabos confuse the area’s history with its development as a tourist destination, so that the WWII-era pilots and businessmen who built the first hotels and capitalized on the tremendous regional sportfishing are sometimes lionized as “founding fathers.” This mistaken emphasis is not confined to tourists and transplants. Plaza Pioneers (in English, “Pioneer Plaza”) in Cabo San Lucas, for instance, is dedicated to these mid to late 20th century builders: men like Don Luis Bulnes, Luis Cóppola and William Matt “Bud” Parr.


Certainly all three deserve to be honored–as does Abelardo “Rod” Rodríguez–for their immense contributions to the growth of Los Cabos; but in truth, the history of cape cities Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo is much more complex, and dates back many thousands of years. And that’s just the human history. 


Geographically speaking, much of the municipality is almost unfathomably old. The granite monuments that comprise the half-mile Land’s End headland, for example, are estimated to have formed some 30 million years ago.


The real pioneers of Los Cabos were a mixed bag of Pericúes, priests, soldiers and pirates, hardy souls who journeyed from distant lands to seek their fortunes or serve God along the southernmost coast of the Baja California peninsula. Over the years, several of we have become fascinated by this scarcely chronicled history, and have attempted to trace the true evolution of the area…not only from the appearance of the first fly-in fishing resorts, but from the distant mists of early human migration, when the first inhabitants arrived by raft from Melanesia.
