typical mexican double speak. or are they just ....? there is a 4"x12" (inch) sign at the highway that says "lobera" or was earlier this week.

We met the owner and he said the signs (in Spanish) are meant to keep out others... not us Baja visitors. We took that to mean to keep out local
teenagers or trouble makers and not paying guests...

like i said, what? gringos don't read/don't care about a "no hay paso/propiedad (sp?) privada sign? typical mexican thought process! why not hire a
guy to weed out the "undesirables" as they arrive at the gate????

Capt. Mike, my reply regarding K & M sportfishing was for LVPatton whose name is also Mike. I don't have pics of Fernando's rental house, but I'm
heading down 4th of July weekend for a day of fishing and a day to drink a few Pacificos con mis amigos. I will take pics of the rental house then,
and post them. I'll be at Cielito Lindo's Friday for a few beers, if your there I'd like to buy you a few.
Tony

To get there you drive through Ceilito Lindo and past Gypsys camp. Continue out to the end of the road where you will see the lighthouse. Just
before the lighthouse veer left and drive right out onto the beach and park right next to the fisherman's trucks. From there you can motor, kayak,
paddle, kick out to the main point. Usually there is some surf breaking inside the point. BTW...you don't need 4WD to get to the parking area or to
drive the road. Also in the afternoon I've bought fish and crabs from the fisherman when they came in. |
YOU bought! FISH, ELFARO?
I'm still waiting to look at your kayak!

Mike, I left my digital camera in El Socorro. I'll try to get Fernando's son to get the pics sent to me. I may get down there again either the week
before, or the week your there.
I left San Francisco bay area 2330 hrs Thursday night 3rd of July, arrive in El Socorro 1330 hrs 4th July. Drank to much beer Friday in San Quintin
with local friends, got in 0300 Saturday. I met up with Fernando and a guy from L.A., to fish around El Socorro at 0830....tide to low in the morning
to launch any earlier off the beach ($150) split between us two fishermen. The guy was staying at Fernando's rental. We fished the kelp first and
worked our way deeper. Calicos, and sandies fishing the kelp a little past Tranquilo, and a 10-12 lbs Ling..fun on 15 lbs test mono. Fished deep for
all the rojos, and whitefish we wanted. No YT, no WSB. Went in about 1500hrs. I did hear that Kelly got into the tuna (ablies) Sunday or Monday 20
miles out of the point WFO. I would have like to fish offshore, but can't afford Kelly, unless I have a few guys with.
Barbecue at my place Saturday night with Pops, Fernando, Pancho, Gordo and his family.... more beer. Departed El Socorro 0800 Sunday, and because of
the boarder, rest stops, made it back to Vallejo 0230 Monday. Work at 0600....my butt was dragging all day Monday.
Fishbuck you should have been with Friday night, we would have had some fun in San Quintin...a little more tame than Tijuana, but I feel a bit more
safer drinking with locals in San Quintin, than TJ.

Yes it will work in Baja if you have Larry Buck's "Baja Expeditioner"
The new release has voice turn by turn in the large towns...most trails are there, but not all. There is a update now so they might be there too.

Ya, that's how I thought it would be.And your right SQ is quit but feels safe.
I read a report about private boaters that were there on the forth. They got some tuna but they worked hard to get it. Wayout in rough water and cold
foggy conitions.
Glad you had fun!
