I am still looking for a source for megabaits/luna/p line laser minnows if anyone has an inexpensive link to buy them.

Looking forward to Gonzaga Bay as I have never been on the Sea of Cortez side.

I read somewhere that condensation on the inside of the kamprite was an issue(with the rain fly on) .....but in the past I read nothing but a bunch of awesomeness. Please, report back with your review.

I suppose you don't have to put the rain fly on.

When does it ever rain here or in baja?

I'd be more worried about the wind not only blowing your tent away...but also the sand, dirt and dust that's going to be sifted by the screens on your tent...that turns the dirt into the consistency of fine powdered sugar.... and buries you and all your camping gear...!

I gotta git me a new tent!

But does this not happen with EVERY tent on the market? If not WHY? BTW 29 March to 6 April, I may be going with a friend to Gonzaga to PRE-FISH the area.
Might open this to others as part of Baja or Bust also. Will know more in about a week. Tight lines and bloody gaffs.

I think the Kamp Rite tent cot will be fine. I doubt it will blow away since I am lying on it in a cot.

Closing up the windows should be good enough for the sand blowing?

What kind of tent are you looking to buy?

Not sure yet...probably something smaller than my 10x10 tent i have currently. Hopefully i can find something i can close up or tape up, to help keep most of the dirt out...

I hate to help jack my own thread, BUT you will need the tent to be vented. When SUMMER arrives in BAJA it can be VERY HOT, you will need the ventulation open.
