NEW YEARS IN GONZAGA
 

Leaving 27-28th Dec for paradise. New Years Eve Party at the restaurant, last year we ran out of tequilla and had to settle for Makers Mark, so we need to know how many are coming.

Last year Hashem took the pictures as Buddha was the life of the party, singing Karoke in SPANISH, much to the delight of the locals. Trip open to all. We will fish a few days after the new year weather permiting. Tight Lines, hope to see you there.

Hmmmm, Maybe

Can't stay all the way till New Years, but will definitely take another bottle of tequila!!!!

About time you came back, except for the leg, everything else ok? Will be good to see you again. Tight lines.

I am planning on going down to your place between Xmas and new years...wonder what weather will be like and if any fish will be around?

We did catch a few fish last year. Had some weather too.

Bob,

What about the Mag Bay trip? I was planning on leaving Dec 30th to Gonzaga for new Years and then heading south to Mag bay. Returning (For me) Jan 9th (2017)

I hope to see you in Gonzaga, BUT I will not be following you to Mag Bay for health reasons.

New Years Update GONZAGA
 

First, saw foot doctor yesterday, he was IMPRESSED with how the foot is healing. It still has a way to go but it is healing. Infection I got on Asuncion trip seems gone and he gave me a two week EMERGENCY supply of antibiotics.
Ross he said the Amoxicillin was ok but this new stuff is stronger.

NEW YEARS is coming, I will be there in Gonzaga, along with Ross, WHO else is coming?????

Luis the restaurant owner was in hospital two weeks ago for a prostrate problem, so I guess I will be hosting New Years there. WHO esle will be there???????

Tight Lines and Happy Holidays to ALL.

You know I'm in Dog!:party:

SDROB, Rossman, and Makobob! Any one else?

I will be headed down with a buddy on the 24th but might be returning on the 30th...Cya down there. need us to bring anything...rhino gas, oil, food etc?

Great to hear the good news.


Please relay our best wishes for speedy recovery to Luis.

Thanks,

Excellent!

We will see you down there I expect to get there 27 or 28th, Tight Lines.

Bob, I might see you down there. I will let you know as soon as I know I can pull it off. I will most likely travel by myself since I will be coming from PHX.

No problem, just show up if you can, lot's of room at the inn.

Sounds like a good time. I guess I'm in unless the weather shows

Can you spell TAQUILLA???

Might cruise down New Year's Day.

Okay, I've signed on for these trips in the past but for misc reasons never made it out.

I would like to go on this trip.

What do I need to get across the border?

And what should I bring?

To go on this trip you will need your passport, a mexican ffm (which you can get as we cross the border), mexican auto insurance and a mexican fishing licence. Border crossing is much faster if you already have your ffm and auto insurance in hand.

Yak, radio, life vest, fish gear, sleeping bag, drinking water and drinks. you would be responsible for dinner for one night, I usually take food for my night to the restaurant and they do the cooking and clean up for $5.00 a head plus drinks and a tip. So if I take meat, they provide the rice, beans, tortillas and sometimes a salad for about $40 for 6 people. But if you want to cook in camp we can do that just more work and clean up.

Last year we ran out of taquilla at the NEW YEARS EVE party, So I ask that people comng down bring a bottle of Taquilla.
Plan on fishing, mostly bass, cabrilla, snapper, orange mouth corvina. The exotics will be gone. And remember we can get wind this time of year so you may have to fish from the beach.

Other questions, please ask. Tight Lines and Happy Holidays.

Cool, thank you.

Where in Baja is Gonzaga by the way? Google maps doesn't seem to know. Found Asuncion, but not Gonzaga.

Where and when would I meet up with y'all.

Hopefully I will be able to make it down there during that time. Had surgery on my ankle and did not to well in the recovery. I'm guessing its just age. I have a Dr. appointment on the 20th. We will see what happens. If all is good, I'll be seeing you guys down in paradise!

BahÃXa San LuÃXs Gonzaga, east side of Baja, cross over at Calexico, take route 5 down, right?

I may head out a day or so early, sleep in the truck or something. Or the hotel.

That is right, when are you planing on leaving for there?

I will be heading up there a couple days early too and will be staying at Campo Beluga and fishing the Bay for a couple days if you want to stop by.

My plan at this point is to head to Calexico on the 25th, in the evening. Stay there over night and the cross over early in the morning and head on down.

Rossman, I can meet you at Camp Beluga that evening, God willing.

Sound okay?

Right now my plan is to head up there on the morning of the 26th. Should be at Beluga by noonish. Hope to see you there.

Sounds good.

I will be in camp around noon on the 27th or sooner. Hope to see you all there, Tight Lines and Happy Holidays.

Buen viaje.

UPDATE
 

SDROB, Rossman, PapaDave, Dannowar, Fishnstix, Fareola and Makobob. See you all there, Rob and will arrive about noon on the 26th, Tight Line and Happy Holidays to all.

Check out my posts, pretty much every question is asked and answered.

I will post some links later if you cannot find them.

Sea of Cortez side. South of puertecitos

Hey Papa Dave, I am having some second thoughts about my schedule. Looks like there might be a good bit of rain into Baja through Xmas. I have to travel the we miles of grumpy Road past Coco's Corner, which can get a bit weird during a rain storm. I may put off my departure until Tuesday but I will decide and post here by Xmas night. I still plan to spend at least one night at Beluga but Makobob may be at his place on Monday night. I will catch up with you during the week if I don't see you at Beluga.

I will be at my place on Monday after noon. On the road to Gonzaga, 8 miles before Gonzaga. KM 134 sign says Campo Turistica, Follow to beach 1/2 mile. Ask at restrauant for Robert.

Yeah, I saw the weather. I think I'm going to pass on this trip.

SDROB and Makobob leave San Diego before 5am on Monday morning. Expect to be in camp arount noon on the 26th. See you guys there. Tight Lines and Happy Holidays to all.
