Thats right. I just happened to be in the area and saw the posse at Denny's so I hitched a ride..sweet..

Siebler 05-24-2011 11:36 AM

I am SO bummed that I had to bail on this trip last minute. I hate the fact that so much negative came up the last few weeks causing me to not go. Looks like an awesome trip and I will for sure be there next time.

Flyfisher70 05-24-2011 11:49 AM

Excellent photo essay Andy.
Thanks for sharing

Zed 05-24-2011 12:01 PM

Nice.
Other than a stuck truck, I assume all went well. The water looks pretty good. I'm envious too.

More fish pix! I spy a ribera cabrilla, sierra, and a corvina.

TIA,

Z

Sorry, I was the swing vote. I thought you were fishing Malibu with your buddy and didn't want to split you two up.

Yep thanks for organizing it. Been a long time since I've been to Mexico. Was a great way to spend the birthday weekend.

Great trip, great group, great fun as usual. I didn't believe Andy at first, but those chihuahuas did make great ceviche. Some kick ass camp chefs as well. 82F, water temp of 70F, bird schools and boils, get me back there!

Andy 05-24-2011 02:23 PM

Good food, good friends, good times! Wanna go back now!

GregAndrew 05-24-2011 03:17 PM

mtnbykr2 05-25-2011 07:35 AM

these kind of trips are what we all dream about...looks epic, great report:reel:

nofearbuthope 05-25-2011 08:37 AM

It must have been great. I wish the fishing condition was like that here in Cali.

lamb 05-25-2011 01:32 PM

NICE!!!!

The spot and the fish variety look great!

Bummed I couldn't make this trip. :(

What about #10? Looks just like an opal eye, but it's got some chompers :confused:

fishstew 05-25-2011 02:46 PM

One of the most epic trips I have ever been on! Good food, Good fishing, and Good company and lets not forget the AMAZING apple cobbler we had Saturday night.....Thanks Mark! Thanks Andy for putting it together again like always. The drive down was surprisingly easy. The conditions were great the whole weekend but Sunday was the money day. Sunday was out of control.....You gotta love it when most people start paddling in before noon because they cant carry anymore fish on their kayak! Awesome group and great fishing! I dont know if I can wait until next year to do it again.

GregAndrew 05-25-2011 02:47 PM

Here is the head of #8. The eyes were very strange looking because they were both right at the top of the head.

And a different angle at #10.

Holy Mackerel 05-26-2011 10:21 AM

Ah, I miss baja, great pics! Keep em coming! Is that the MadProffessor, and Esdees on some sort of 12ft klamath???? :reel:

http://www.bigwatersedge.com/bwegall...0/IMG_3508.jpg

JoeBeck 05-26-2011 10:33 AM

Chris,

They were fishing on a port-a-boat pretty sweet set up for baja! They had it rigged up nicely.

yaksailor 05-26-2011 10:44 AM

Cool pics, especially of the exotic fish.

That FJ Cruiser looks like it is in it's element.
