Baja
Just returned from Baja and had a great trip! NO need to dodge bullets, no problems in the Northern sections, and tons of people who waive to you and say hello in passing The fishing was "slow" down that way due to colder waters and could only fish for a limited time due to offshore winds but still was able to land 8 YT (lost 4 to rocks on lighter tackle), 2 Gulf Grouper, tons of big bonito, few small halibut, tons of barred sand bass and spotted bay bass, hand full of barracuda, greenback mackeral, spanish mackeral, yellowfin croaker, corbina, lizard fish, smelt, two large Calico Bass (one was 10 -12 lbs), and my personal best YT to date (no scale) but guessing 30-33 lbs......here is the video

By the time I got done fighting the fish I had lost my friend in the fog for a bit........whistle came in handy.......no one else around and we were using our compasses to get around.......fun stuff! Only one brief Mako encounter when it ate my Mac |

Nice! I need to get back
That wind can be brutal, hopefully the flies werent bad this time of the year. They were so bad one time that we just started letting them land on us, on our lips, eyes, wherever, only place to escape was the water. Nice vid |
