Here is how my wife and I stay safe while camping in Baja...
Frida is one spunky Chihuahua that is not afraid to be heard. She barks with authority, and will not let strangers come near us. She has drawn blood
on more than one occasion as well...

once I was reading electric meters for a living . I came to a house that had a pined in aria around the meter and there was a Chihuahua with a big
letter of almost grown pups. they were cute. I stepped over the little 3 foot high fence to read the meter and they attacked. they were like a bunch
of Purana's, little mouths taking little bites At very high rate of speed.
I left fast

Are you a "rodent hugger" ??

I have posted on this subject before; faithful four-legged companions are your best "dragons at the gate". Treat them with love and good care and
they will take care of you.
A friend of ours, a Tijuana businessman, living in a good community recently arrived home from work, he unlocked the iron gates blocking his driveway
and greeted his fifteen-year old German Shepherd that habitually slept on the driveway until he arrived home.
Just as he exited his car, a thug came up from the street, through the open gate with a knife to stab him in the back.
The German Shepherd, which had been a family pet all its life, attacked the attacker and drove him away.

I have not lost anything in Baja and have been camping there since 1977, but I came close one time (about two blocks).
We were staying in a motel in Calexico about two blocks from the border and I took a small Husky for a walk around the block. When I got back, the
rear vent window was broken, the door unlocked, the glove compartment open and glass everywhere.
Nothing was missing.
A little Crime Scene Investigation told the story. We had a 72 pound monster Husky named Kodiak in the camper with the pass-thru open. The poor guy
must have looked over his shoulder to see the always hungry, drooling monster creeping toward him and make a fast exit. Kodiak was devastated that he
did not get a pet.
Huskys are not watchdogs, but Wife Marian.......
I agree with David K's early post; camp in the boonies.
And Diver, quit picking on Poor Ken, the Jeep driver. He is not really that way, Jeep drivers just like to have a purse to match their high heels.
My motto:
Never let a Dragon pass by without pulling its tail!

That was about 12 years ago, I guess. There is a campsite at the base of a hill with a house (or was it a cross) on it about 2 miles from town on the
way to Campo Rene. We used to love to camp there with the other gringos because of the wonderful cove that it borders. The water was crystal clear and
had a gentle slope for our son to play in without any danger. You could see corbina feeding from the bluff at high tide and the halibut bit real well
on a rising tide. A road circled the hill from the main road and the vendor would show up on that road once or twice a day with his lobsters.
I don't know if you were living in Abreojos in those days, Whistler (or I would've looked you up :yes . I thought all of the residents were Mexican back then. Nice, bright, white-washed homes in the sunny desert climate.
I saw no poverty. It looked like a wonderful place to live, I thought.

Absolutely right. Except, she (Suzanne) sold her Jeep 13 months ago...

Thanks for the invitation, Whistler. I have thought of being in the area in early July this year. Do you think any of the pelagic gamefish will be
around during that time (based upon your experience)? I mean fish like yellowtail, dorado, and bonito. Even barracuda and shortfin corvina would make
Alex happy.
I've gotta tell you about my first trip to Abreojos. It was December of 1991. The locals steered me to this drop off on the reef next to the
lighthouse during a minus tide. I caught and released shortfin corvina on every cast for 2 solid hours. I got out the flyrod and was getting them with
35 foot casts. It was amazing. Every trip needs a day like that.
This year, if I go, I was thinking of staying at La Bocana and going out through the mouth to some of those seamounts around there. That reminds me,
there's a sale at Sportsmart right now with every reel marked down 25% off list price. That includes the Trinidads, Tecotas, and Toriums. Seems like a
great deal.
