The chin strap makes your birds easily identified as Black Brant. Used to see a ton of them down in San Ignacio lagoon during whale season - kinda surprised they are still down there, should be heading back north by now...

I am so looking forward to our trip this winter!

16 miles in a Solo Skiff - no problem!

32 miles in a Solo Skiff, towing another yak, no problem. Going to be a great trip Kai. Christmas is coming. Tight Lines.

I was thinking the same:
“As filter feeders, manta rays consume large quantities of zooplankton in the form of shrimp, krill and planktonic crabs…” Wikipedia.

Yes, the manta ray was snagged in the wing (3" swim bait).

I'm in Puerto Lopez Mateos right now- using internet from Hotel Refugio - did you guys drive out on the road to Playa Santa Elena? Gonna give that a shot tomorrow. Not many restaurants open this time of the year- I guess there are more during whale watching season. Lots of water moving around out there right now- kinda intimidating actually.

Ok. Day whatever (2nd in Mag Bay)...

Kitchen shack visitor



There was a ton of dew in the mornings even thought the weather was very mild. 60-80F





Eggs and tangerines for breakfast and loaded up on water and snacks for the day.



Everybody had a couple of confidence baits from yesterday and conditions were ridiculous, so we were pumped to get out there again.



Our rigs.
