I'm thinking I might stop by around the 26th or 27th. I'll have my zero gravity and a blanket so I will find a place to bed down. Still undecided as to whether I'll bring my gear with me.

Was hoping you would make it with Bill. We will keep an eye out for you guys and our amigo Ross. As to clothing sizes one child 5 years old Jose Jr. adults sizes unknow, mostly average to large women, mens shirts medium to large.
pants, shirts, jackets as winter is coming for them. Waist 32-38 for the men. Good hand and power tools are always needed.

Colin will have to be working on his ship in Seattle so he can't make.
Bill who was down with us last time is going to take his place.
We plan on doing diner at the restaurant, Chicken Mole. It was great last time.
Will be driving down 10/26. Plan on staying until Sunday.
Really looking forward to the trip.

Let me know if there is anything you need brought down. I live in Escondido, so could pick up what ever you need.

Bob, please advise on any changes.

Thanks.

ONLY change, in front of restaurant take a left and follow until you have to take a right at trees, then go 100 feet and take a left, 100 feet and we are on the left 50 yards of soft sand, stay on tire tracks at 20 mph to top, park left by garage. Tight Lines.

I finally found the file, and here is the revised version.



We meet at 5:00 AM at Johnny's Shell station in El Cajon located at 515 N. Magnolia Ave. Just off of the freeway (8) at the exit #67, N. Magnolia.

From there we stay on the freeway (8) to the exit #98, follow about 30 miles to the highway (111) and take left to border crossing, San Diego to border 125 miles.


From there we follow the highway Mex (5) thru Mexicali, follow signs to San Filipe, Puertocitos, Rio Hardy staying on the highway Mex (5) all the way to San Filipe. Another 125 miles.
Going through San Filipe take right at sign to Puertocitos/airport, go about 9 km to sign saying Puertocitos and take a left, DO NOT go to the airport.
From here is another 95 miles to camp.

VADO means dip in road and years ago they could and would take your rear axle out, SLOW DOWN for them. At km 60-65 be very careful. When you reach km 134 you went 100 yards too far. Sign to camp will say Campo Turistico and you take a left. Up until now roads are all good at (60) mph unless posted lower and passable by any car. At turn off for camp it is unpaved dirt road, [15-25] mph but bumpy. Camp is about 1/2 mile from main road.

It is suggested lowering your air pressure at turnoff on your first trip, to about (20) psi. There are/is compressor in camp. Follow until you crest hill and go down to beach, restaurant is on your left, in front of restaurant take a left and follow until you have to take a right at trees, then go 100 feet and take a left, 100 feet and we are on the left 50 yards of soft sand, stay on tire tracks at (20) mph to top, park left by garage.
The sand on the beach can be very soft at times.

WELCOME TO PARADISE.

Every one going on these trips for the first time, should print out a copy of this and carry with you JUST INCASE we get separated.

Just the way Mako likes them! They give you shade in the summer and keep him warm in the winter. Well at least thats what Rossman told me! No wonder he's in baja almost year round:D

ROB you understand that my wife reads these posts?????? The locals are happy, friendly, poor but rich in family values. Hardworking and make life long friends. Respect is much valued among them and truth is king. They are a wonderful addition to my life. That is why I will be with them for New Years Eve again this year. The Holidays are coming and I hope you will all be with family and friends. Tight Lines.

Hey sivak, I think Im going to end up cooking actually. Im sure you can find someone on the trip who is doing a dinner at the restaurant.

You can add me and a friend to the reconfirmed list. We will be going down on the 22nd and heading back the 29th. Is the final count 12 plus us? I will do burgers or something one of the nights...PM me your cell number.

Any current fish reports?

THIS TRIP IN NOW FULL THIS TRIP IS NOW FULL
RECONFIRMED THIS puts the count at 15 when we include Ross. The camp will be full, which is great, REMEMBER to bring a comfortable chair for lounging and watch out for the fish. Tight Lines. I too would love a nice juicy piece of Orangemouth.

Hashem I'm really liking that wind forecast, it's kind of a ways off to predict, but we can always hope the wind doesn't blow!!!!!:cheers1:

Roger that. Last time I found a website for Gonzaga Bay, but I can't find it now. I will look again.


Now for help with Spanish;

At the border I am asked by non-English speaking officers (why do they have them there?) as "where are you going?".

Can you provide a simple answer like--I am going fishing for a week at Gonzaga Bay.


Thanks Amigo.
