This is just like being


around the campfire at BOLA or the El Rosario Fest. :lol:

What do you guys have to say when it's not complaining about what I say? Anything?

I'm starting to think it's some sort of club! Now, if I could just come up with a name for this group.:lol::lol::lol:

JR-you could get bumper stickers, t-shirts (with front pocket), hats, etc...maybe we could have a contest for the best saying...definately not "who shot JR?"....maybe something like "I went all the way to Baja and all I got was some harassment on Nomads from JR" slogan...what do you think?

You know I don't have anything against you personally...I just hate the snivelling...get back to talking about Baja and sharing your pictures...by the way, I'll be at Agua Verde at Christmas...come on down for a Ballena...after that I'll be exploring the coast between Asuncion and Bahia Tortugas..

The last time I was around a campfire at Bahia de L.A. was the last time I was at Camp Gecko, New Years '05... and it was great! We were invited over to a campfire by a Canadian family, tossed in some magic rocks, Packoderm, Bedman, others were there... then a great surprise is that TW and his wife showed up (driving all the way from BajaLou's turkey feast in San Felipe earlier that day)!

The El Rosario festival was a wonderful time for all the Nomads I talked to, as well. We arrived too late for the Friday night campfire at the beach... But, with all of Rosario's old timers there telling stories, that had to be awesome... The San Quintin radio station even did a live feed to cover the historic evening!

So, campfires with Baja Nomads and the Baja people are wonderful times... Of course you would have to actually be there to experience them, rather than put them down because you didn't go, or that it wasn't your creation, or idea...

Yeah - I used to let old JR ring my bell every now and then but I changed my way of thinking - now I mostly just feel sorry for the guy. And I'm sincere about that. It's pretty obvious he has some personal issues going on - I doubt that he's able to interact much in the real world so now he's relegated to pushing peoples buttons on the web.

It's a heck of a way to live. I wish him well. If this board is really that important to him, let him have it - we can all choose to not open his posts.

As for his supposed "knowledge" of anything he has no credibility with me - I just don't trust the man.

Doug - another trait of bullies is that they always feel they're the one's being persecuted.

By the way, Whistler. One of the bad raps I heard about being guided by Gary Graham (when you've signed up for a flyfishing experience in baja) is that he often takes you out in the panga and you end up trolling the fly at the end of you flyrod.

Whistler and Pam---


Those statements are both prepostrous, and cannot be allowed to stand.

Trolling is fun, and besides, you get somewhere while engaged. You even catch some fish, once in a while, and that is good.

Glenn, my dad was the fisherman in my family... I like it, but didn't sink in as deeply as his love of it. So, my question to you is, how do you catch DORADO (dolphinfish, mahi mahi)? We caught them always trolling between the islands and Puerto Escondido... Thanks!!!

There's a rivalry in the fly fishing community and the statement "Trolling Sucks" was tongue in cheek and not meant to put down those who troll. Personally the sound of a motor in troll puts me to sleep and there is no challenge in hooking up a fish by trolling a fly. Fish will take trolled flies almost more readily than they will live bait or trolling feathers. Maybe for their action in the water and the high amount of flash used when making them.

Trolling within message boards also sucks and that's more f what I meant.

Whisler------


I was kidding on the trolling to "get somewhere", etc. but I used to always troll when we were thru with a day of exploring, and serious fishing-----we were never in a hurry to get home, so when the wind started coming up and the waves started running big, we would troll for miles as we ran for home beach at slow speeds to avoid getting swamped in our little tin boats-----you know, sorta like "killing two birds with one stone" phylosophy.

Main reason I troll here in Loreto in the summer is trying to create some kind of breeze to stay , maybe not cool, but at least cooler. Sitting still fries you;););)

Vandenburg I'm with you if you don't keep moving you'll fry. Also you have to find the fish. By the way how did this thread get onto fishing?
