Gonzaga April 2-8 MrPukaShell

[Corvina]

I am waiting to find out if we have a rugby game on Saturday 8th April and if not I am in....

[Sivak]

Hashem, I won't be at camp until Wednesday only if Corivna can go. He was going to and be my wingman... As soon as he is good to go, we are in.

Bob, we will meet you in the AM if Corvina can go.

[Mahigeer]

No problem and hope you both can make it.

I guess since we are crossing the border on Sunday, it will be a good testament to the benefit of having a Sentri Pass.

Conditions appear to be good. Day temps in the mid 80's, nights low to mid 60's and winds mostly below 10 mph. Nice spring weather, now if the fish will cooperate it should be a great trip.

Heard a rumor about a bunch of roosterfish caught and killed in a gill net in the Gonzaga area. Hoping to get more info about this on our trip. Tight Lines.

[MrPukaShell]

Hashem,
I have someone coming with me so we will cover a dinner at the restaurant for Saturday night or whatever night is needed just let me know.

[makobob]

So far meeting at the Shell Station are, me, Mahigeer, Defjack, Sivak, Corvina and MrPukaShell will meet us at the AM/PM in Calexico. Johnny's shell we LEAVE at 5am, should put us at AM/PM Calexico about 7am. Breakfast at Tacos Poblano in San Felipe around 9:30 and into Campo Turistica before noon. Leaving pleanty of time to set up camp and get some fishing in before dinner. Tight Lines guys it should be a good trip. Weather still looking good. Be safe and see you soon.

Hasheem thanks for picking up the slack on this trip, really makes it easier on me.

OK Me (Sivak) and Brian (Corvina) are 100% in. Due to work schedules, we are meeting everyone at Johnny's @ O dark early and will now leave Thursday after we fish the high tides so probably around 2:00pm. Sorry for the change up but its what we can do now. Anyway can we adjust dinner? If not, we can leave money for you guys to go to dinner at the restaurant.

I am sure we can figure something out, see you at Johnny's.

[Mahigeer]

Good news Sivak and Corvina. I could use some good jokes by Corvina.

Good deal Robert.

Mr. Mako, just let me know what needs to be done.



Side note:
Today I was able to replace the rear shocks on the 4Runner after several attempts in the past.

One of the hardest jobs that I had to do as a licensed mechanic working on cars for many years. Maybe my memory is failing me.

Next is oil and filter change and transmission service. Cooling system may need a flush too.

Then loading the 4Runner and leaving on Saturday at 9:00 PM for Pechanga to spend some time before the 5:00 AM meeting at the Shell.

My wife will be making delicious Persian salad and I will be picking up Persian food on Thursday.

The right knee is feeling ok too for pedal workout.

A long report to be posted here for those who cannot make it this time.

Glad the maintenance is going good, and I would expect a very long report after this trip. I will have the Gregor with 20 hp on a trailer and the NEW SOLO SKIFF for you guy's to test out and I anticipate lots of fish pictures too. So WE will keep you busy Arkadash.

[Mahigeer]

I am really looking forward to this trip, since I cannot make the October one.

That one is too close to my next fly fishing in Fernie, Canada trip.


Then again one never know about these events and what life decides to throw at one.

[Sivak]

Hashem, you can't miss the October trip. Fly fishing in .ca can not be as fun, plus we need more Persian food!

Don't worry, the comedian Brian always has some good jokes in his holsters.

[Mahigeer]

Looking forward to Brian's joke sessions. Does he have the Sentri Pass?



As to Canada, the reservations have been made and train ticket bought.

If you had a chance to read my last year’s trip, you may remember it did not turn out to be %100 the way I wanted.

This time it is at a world class river called Elk Valley, which runs through a town called Fernie in British Columbia, Canada

Having the experience of the "road" this time, I am hoping to have a much better trip.

If Serop has a SENTRI pass then it looks like this will be the FIRST ALL SENTRI trip to paradise. Remember your sun block AND bug spray, lot's of rain means ton's of bugs. Tight Lines.

[MrPukaShell]

He does not which is a bummer for me. He did apply but not soon enough, so wave as you drive by in the short line. We will be able to show the difference in the write up.
