I don't imagine there to be a lot of folks crossing south at that time, so I am hoping to get it done pretty quickly. What do you think?

Having crossed the border at that time on numerous occasions, I can tell you that there is seldom any wait to get the FMM. The only wait is trying to get the attention of the guy at the bank who is probably asleep in the back room.

BTW you guys probably know this but as of September, the FMM can be used for multiple land entries to Baja.

Kevin in TJ it takes about 5 minutes or less, should not be a problem. See you soon. Has anyone heard from RomSpaceNut??????? Tight Lines.

Spoke to Robert last night. He's driving with me. We're starting our trip on Sat the 22nd and bailing out the following Fri or Sat. Feel free to drop Robert into a cooking date that fits into this schedule please. He said something about shrimp and scallops...

Jim, thanks for the update on Robert. This is going to be so much FUN.

Hey Jim, that means we can caravan back up. Was planning on heading back up north solo, but I'll leave when you do on Friday or Saturday. Always better to have two cars. You never know.

Oh, and Jim, are you heading straight down to Asuncion, or fishing another spot on the way down MIGHT be able to leave early to get in an extra day of fishing. San Quintin/Socorro had crossed my mind. Although, don't want to be a 3rd wheel spoiler for you and the spacenut! Haha!

Unfortunately I will be leaving early as well, Fri PM or Sat AM - w/open option for a room and 1/2 day fishing on the way home.

As for you guys fishing on the way down early - I also plan to head down Sat or Sun before (work permitting). I Was planning going to Punta Baja, $10 a night for a room, w/a possible Mon or Sun at San Antonio. Or, maybe camp in Puerto Santo Tomas - depending on weather/fishing in both locations. I have some killer structure spots GPSd in PB. Launch is just funky as are winds.

If I do Punta Baja still, I would meet you guys on the way down in El Rosario around 11 AM on Tuesday - maybe a lunch or fuel stop for some? But I haven't found great food in town yet, so maybe you eat in SQ and meet me at the gas station or grocery stores about noon. Look for my ride along the highway - should not be to hard to spot. Green PA14 on white 4runner w/rear cross bar on hitch.

Looking forward to this - Richard

HAHAHAHA!!! I've done Baja enough times. And I know the scouting required to dial in a new location. No fish stops for me and Robert. We're driving straight to Ross' place.

I'm also bring a few olive branch switches and I plan on riding Ross like the lean, mean, knowledgeable Baja burro that he is. Giddyup Rossie...take me to your 150 yellow spot...now let's go to your 40# spot...
