So Buddha is good to go, Sven is good to go, I am good to go, how about the rest of you guy's? Getting there is only part of the fun. Remember to bring a light spinning outfit or fly rod for some real fishing fun. Some wire and some smaller metal. Some of these fish are targeting 2" bait schools. Last year I took a nice rooster almost 20 lbs on a small 1" kastmaster. The same jig caught lot's of 30+" sierras too. Tight lines.

Memory is not the first thing to go with age, but I seem to remember 18-27# brown twisted wire, Berkley i think. 6" to 9" shortys. I usually fish 20# test line and like to keep from ever powering things. I never had the wire itself break. I fished 1/2 oz to 4 oz jigs with them. Hope this helps.

"Not to beat the dead horse" as the saying goes;

However, what is the advantage of having a FMM if one still has to STOP to have it stamped?
If you have to stop, is filling and paying for it too time consuming?


On a better note, I feel really accomplished. Yesterday after many years of the kayak sitting and waiting for me to "accessories" it, I installed many items on it. Not done yet, but it will be “a bichin ride” when I am rolling in Baja.

Well I am sure that you stopping and paying for your fmm will seem like no time since you have spent at least 3000 hours preparing for this trip!!!

That is funny and not too far off.

When I take a task on, I do it with %100 effort.
