LAKE BACCARAC Bass Fishing MexicoFelipe Valdez Miranda
Co-Owner of Lake Baccarac Big Bass Lodge
Along with Ricardo Balderama, Felipe participated in the
stocking of a Florida strain of largemouth bass in the lake in
1978. He then ran the only lodge operation on Lake Baccarac
form 1982 to 2003 for Chapman Balderama resorts. In the year
2004, he began to think about opening his own lodge on the
lake, rather than in town where the old lodge was. In order to
get to the lake from the old lodge, a twenty-minute drive to
the lake each morning and evening was necessary. The new lodge
was built with a beautiful view overlooking the shores of the
lake. All twelve rooms at the lodge allow for double
occupancy. Each room has a fan, air conditioning and a color
television. The entire lodge is tiled including the patio and
dining hall. |

Felipe has personally caught over 500 bass in excess of ten
pounds, which is quite an accomplishment for any angler in a
lifetime. However, this feat is even more impressive due to the fact
that Felipe has done this while fishing only occasionally, maybe one
day a week during the season. Felipe has caught a seventeen pound
largemouth and has, of course, lost and seen many larger fish lost
in more than 20 years on the lake. He has witnessed two fish caught
over 19 [pounds and two over 18 pounds. In June of 2005, an
eighteen-pound, nine-once monster was caught on a swim bait.
Felipe learned English from his interaction with fisherman and
now speaks the language fluently. Along with his business, he is
involved in charity efforts to help the less fortunate people in his
community. If you would be interested in helping the struggling
villagers, you can contact Felipe and he will give you insight on
the needs of the town people.
Felipe was the first and is the best person to deal with
regarding fishing in Mexico. He has entertained some of the biggest
names in fishing, including: Hank Parker, Johnny Morris, Bill Dance,
Roland Martin, Jimmy Houston, Larry Woodward and Bob Richardson of
Outdoors in the Heartland, Bob Billow and the In Fisherman TV show.
In addition to his operation at Lake Baccarac, Felipe also runs an
operation at the famous Lake El Salto. There is no better source of
information on fishing Mexico than Felipe, especially on Lake
Baccarac. With advanced planning and an additional charge, you can
hire Felipe as your guide.
Lake Baccarac is arguably the best lake in the world for bass
over 10lbs. This lake is sincerely believed to be the home of the
next World Record largemouth bass. Almost in every case, anglers
will hook or catch their biggest largemouth bass ever! Baccarac is
almost 25 miles long, with over 35,000 acres and has a wide variety
of terrain and over 75 islands that make for some great fishing
spots.
Most fishermen can expect to hook many bass over 6 lbs, with the
odds of hooking onto a nine to twelve pounder. Lake Baccarac was
stocked in 1978 with Florida's strain of largemouth that have
already pushed the scales over 19 lbs. Fishing pressure is at a
minimum with 35,000 acres. The number of bass fishermen on the water
seldom reaches over forty at any one time. It is primarily a catch
and release lake, but anglers will have the option to take home a
bass that he feels must go on the wall (normally over 9lbs).
If you want to do some serious fishing, but your family is
thinking of a resort vacation...now you can have both!
