Sounds like a kick,wish I could make it,there's this rock pile:lol:
Rob




Anyone can catch fish in a boat but only \"El Pescador Grande\" can get them from the beach.

I hope when my time comes the old man will let me bring my rod and the water will be warm and clear.

That pu. was my Dodge powerwagon 1965 3250$ out the door,we camped under that papalpa very year,I helped put the roof on it on our first trip in 64:o:lol:
Rob
Papa's grandkids and my daughter and a poor view of the camp in 65:lol:

That rockpile is on the other side of Willard isla and big nasties live there you probably know about it if not SHHHHH

I had fishing experience on that pile one day in my tin boat but that is another story.

Baitcast, I'm always ready for another story. Tell away.



I\'ve been told I\'m preoccupied with Baja. They just don\"t understand, in fact neither do I.

Willardguy showed a pic of a couple nasties so I figured he knew where the pile is,but I,m sure he won,t tell you or anyone else:lol: they were nice fish but not a good sample of THE REAL PILE PaPA's PILE only a selective few know the real location:lol:and now that he is gone the secret may never be told,sorry boys.
