This year I personally plan to do the trip to the island, I hope this is that trip. So, Wally, John. Sven, Captblood and friend plus Makobob, still room for a couple more anglers.. Trip leaves 24 June, returns when we decide. Water should be warm and fishing good to great. Two of these guys have made the trip to the ISLAND and weather should be good with lower winds. So far Hobies rule this crossing. 4.8 miles from our beach to the island, round trip with fishing will be in the 12-15 mile range. To join Wally, Sven and Jim on the list of those who have crossed you need to join a Gonzaga trip. There are big grouper at the island but you will loose a ton of gear, just ask Jim. 50 lb gear should be the LIGHTEST you consider for grouper. Jim, Tony, mike can all verify these fish are tough on a kayak. USUALLY instant rock!!! Yt should be available along with all the normal species. The inner rubble reefs should produce 100 fish per person if you target bass and triggers. Water temps should be high and roosters could be in the area. We got them in August last year but we were not there last June, but neighbor said he saw some in June. Tight lines.

MakoBob,

June 2014 in the Team Sewer Bajaplaooza report, Stinkymatt said
"Next trip: Roller tip rod, 200 lb. spectra, wire leader." after being owned by a grouper a few times.

I guess I better inspect the crane, service the winch, and get new cable before the June 2015 trip to the island.:reeling:

Hey Wally,

Robert and I will be in one vehicle. 25th-28th. We're good for making dinner on the 26th. Tri-tip and fixins.

Jim

[Chuck D]

I might be interested if you could put me on back-up, thnx.

[walrus]

Jim and Robert,

We'll get you down for dinner on the 26th, sounds good.

ChuckD, first on the back up list.

[makobob]

Ok Wally when is it my turn to cook? I hope to have the new Outback by then.

Jim

Yum yum! Might be worth a drive over just for the scraps.

[walrus]

Bob,

You can cook on any day not yet taken. I'll try to get a meal schedule out to everyone before I leave for Alaska on May 11. I'll be back May 29th and start working out the final details.

I'm looking forward to Baja, more than Alaska right now.

Are you saying you'll have your new outback by then so expect "island Grouper" for dinner?

[makobob]

It would be nice to get it by then. On 2 March Hobie said April or May and I cannot get any more info from them as they are trying to catch up on orders for the Outback. Seems she is a very POPULAR girl. All I can do is hope at this point.

[Deamon]

Don't forget my book WALLY!!!

[Revojoe]

put me on the backup list,pleeeease (revoJoe)

[walrus]

Jim,

I have it hand, are you going to be at the Mission Bay Classic?

[makobob]

Yum yum! Might be worth a drive over just for the scraps.

Good eats, BTW let me know if you are coming over and I will deliver your new rod and anything else you might need. Hope to see you soon amigo. TIGHT lines.

[makobob]

One week and counting......weather will be around 95 days and 75 nights. Water temps 80 ish. Winds forcast 8-12 mph. Gonna be good.

We should see, cabrilla, bass, snapper, grouper, WSB, Orange mouth corvina plus sierra (bring wire leaders) YT, tuna, dorado are all possibilities. Tight lines. FULL MOON 1 July.

[walrus]

Bump. Weather forecast on first entry.

[makobob]

Looking better and better, Low 90's and winds 5-10 for the week, that sounds AWESOME. 5 am Wednesday at Johnny's Shell station in El Cajon.

[makobob]

Mike Scales just had to back out, his wife is sick, so we will be one lighter. You guys might want to bring a light rod or fly rod or mask and fins. See ya.
