Anyone else?

Let me do some checking with the bosses (both here and at home) - I'd like to join you on the May dates. When are you planning to drive down for that one? I'd probably hit the border on Friday morning...

Turned in my dues for Vagabundos at the show yesterday, so I can take advantage of their good 6 month insurance premiums and easy prepaid FFM cards.

Yes Kai, I will be driving down Friday am. I plan on staying from the 29th and driving back on the 8th. I will fish both weekends and maybe do a mothership trip during the week to San Martin Island. Hope you can make it.

Bump


Any one else interested? Quick easy weekend in Baja. Less than 5 hours from San Diego. If you have not experienced Baja before this is an easy place to start. Rooms and meals available on request.

Ok - just got cleared and I'm in for the end of May! If it doesn't happen I'll try to get an extra day off and hit Gonzaga for a short trip. Either way I'm there.

Welcome aboard Kai. So Guys and Gals we need 2 more for each weekend, that should make the pay out about $200 for the winner, moore persons = moore money. If you need a personal invite or more information please let me know. Thanks and tight lines.

LAST UPDATE
 

At 5am, we will travel by truck to a beach near Cielito Lindo Hotel. Launch from there, this removes 5-6 miles of paddling each way and puts us really close to the mouth of the bay and the best halibut and WSB fishing. Tony from Don Eddies will set up some tables and chairs, beer will be available along with tacos for lunch. After fishing we will drive back to Don Eddies for the awards. Should be an easy, fun weekend. Early last June while I was there, Halibut over 40 lbs and two WSB over 70 lbs were caught in this bay.

This will be my return to life after my toe removal in early May. Hope to see some of you there. This could be your chance at the fish of a lifetime! You need to pay by 1 June and for planning purposes I need to know a little sooner if possible. This is the SECOND annual MakoBobs San Quintin Halibut Tourney and I know we will do better than last year????? All moneys returned 100%.

FLY FISHERMEN
Just added. If three or more want to do a fly only division we will do it. Fly only will be a seperate side pot, but entrants will still be eligible for any other tournament prizes. YOUR FLY only entry goes into it's own division. Total cost $25.00 just like everyone else. Biggest Butt could be Fly caught and also be the tournament winner.

Damn Bob - you read my mind! I plan on mostly chucking fur, and am busy right this second tying my "Halibut Killer" rattle flies. Hopefully I'll also have a bunch of articulated "Game Changer" flies also. Missing a few lengths of fish spines I need to track down...

That is awesome! Get to spend more time fishing the prime areas. Can't wait to get down there. What a way to start my summer vacation!

Kai, butt flies? Kevin, prime area, prime time, prime tides, I expect to see some bigger fish.

FLY FISHERMEN UNITE
You keep asking for a fishtogether, this is a start. A weekend in paradise. And the chance of catching the fish of a lifetime.

TWO WEEKS
left to sign up, Someone is going to get at least $100.00 why not you. I know there are some HALIBUT fisherman out there. What you waiting for an engraved invitation, sorry that I cannot do. Hope to see you there, tight lines.

Doing better than last year!

ONE WEEK left to sign up,
All entries need to be in by the 1st of JUNE. So far it is winner take all. EASY money for someone. It is HALIBUT time in San Quintin, will you get a 40+ butt this year??? Tight lines.

BUMP, 4 days left and counting to pay pal and a week to fish....................,.

Dr gave me a release YESTERDAY, no infection, healing well, time to spend a day on the water. San Quintin can be butt city this time of year. Tight lines. Remember to bring a gaff.

That makes more sense👍 good luck down there

Good news on the Dr's release Bob! I'm getting the truck ready - cleaning out the cab, making sure there is nothing there that might get me in trouble (like the box of ammo I found behind the seat).

Are we going to plan a caravan down on Friday? Or are we going to just show up at the designated time on Saturday morning...

I see you got a mention in the Baja Beat section of Western Outdoor News under the San Quintin Heading!

Hey congrats Bob. Thats awesome. Good luck.

Kai, I am planning on leaving early Friday morning, staying at Don Eddies, let me know if you want to share a room or caravan....,.. Then fish Saturday and come home sometime Sunday. Thanks Zed, like your dad. LIFE IS GRAND, and the fish are about to DIE.

Thanks Troy, Like your dad I have to say life is GREAT.
Kai, leaving Friday morning, want to leave fairly early, staying at Don Eddies do you or anyone else want to share a room? Nice FLIES, should be a ball, hope we get some others to fish the fur n feathers. Any of you can call me at
760-692-7276. Tight lines.

Lets convoy down together - I'm willing to share a room - sleep on the floor - sleep in the bed of my truck - whatever it takes...

Got your number programmed in my phone already - mine is 619-203-2829

Are there any kayaks available for rental in San Quintin? I have another buddy who is interested in fishing the tourney, but he hasn't pulled the trigger on his new kayak yet. If so, are they rigged with rod holders, etc? If not, he'll have to rent one from OEX. Thanks

Call Don Eddies, I know they have two but might be rented. Also try next door at K&m sportfishing they have some.

FYI........I will be leaving for Gonzaga early tomorrow morning for 3 days, will return on Wednesday evening.

So I will be OUT of TOUCH until then. When I return I will post total people attending and any NEW information. I will be heading down on Friday morning to check out the launch, landing area, and to get other things ready. You can reach me at Don Eddies on Friday 5 June in the evening, or meet us Saturday morning. PM any questions, thanks. Tight lines.

So it does look like I will be making it. Got my hands on a truck.

I was seeing 15 mph forecast from the weekend. Now the question is, has anyone looked into the wind conditions?

TEN to Fifteen, cloudy, chance of RAIN. VERY FISHABLE. Did you PAYPAL yet, need to get it in. This should be a blast, Hope to see you all there.

Don't know if you guys saw this report but I hat is one big ass kayak halibut from SQ.
http://m.sandiegoreader.com/news/201...mplates=mobile

Other reports show 80% chance of thunder showers but 5 mph winds, I am fishing, hope to see you there. If we do get rained out we will just figure it out but I think it should be fishable. The Butt in the post above was huge and had to be a big female, it is that time of the year for them.

I don't care how hard it rains - so long as we don't get blown off the water I'm good to go!

Right now 2pm Thursday afternoon San Quintin 79 degrees winds NW at 10mph.
Tight lines.
