17-24 April GONZAGA Spring

[makobob]

Just back from camp. Bass, corvina, bigger triggers, one toutava released, sierras too, along with a few Yellow tail.
I would like to leave on the 16th early. Who is actually going? And are we caravaning together? Please post now. Tomorrow my Solo Skiff heads to OEX Mission Bay for full rigging.

Guys, please confirm, so I know what is going on and we can have fun. The Gregor boat works great down there, but does use fuel so if you want to use it plan on bringing 3-4 gallons a day of PREMIUM gas. You will also need to bring a marine VHF radio. This boat is for TWO PERSONS only.
CONFIRM, CONFIRM. Tight Lines.

Will confirm tomorrow for sure as I have to square up a few things but all is looking good (having VHF issues, may have to send it back to Standard Horizon tomorrow not sure on the turnaround rate, will call customer service tomorrow am)

In re. to caravaning, Buddah i would brutha but I'm taking my civic coupe which will be filled to the tee including passenger seat with all my junk :/ Bob, yes i would like to meet up with you guys as this will be my first time and would appreciate the comfort of traveling with fellow Americans

And mako, in re. to the AC/Heat, what do people usually use as i assume there is no power ports other than the generator which is reserved for special circumstances? just curious but nothing a beach umbrella, lounge chair and a dip in the drink can't fix right? Looking into a smaller electric generator at this time... Was looking at a little 200 dollar honda gas powered generator but not sure if that would be too much noise in the camp so I am opting for the latter and going electric unless you give the green light for gas powered


Oh, and should be able to leave Sunday, would that change the return date to the 23rd or?

Slacker, what you didn't win at the Casino. Another week down in paradise and you will be a "Hot Sauce" eating champ.

Had another great week at MakoBob's slice of paradise. If you are bringing meat down for the restaurant I suggest Chicken for "Chicken Mole" and pork for "Chile Verde". All of the meals at the La Poma Restraunt were great. Breakfast there made the mornings easy. The fish and shrimp tacos make a great lunch.

Sounds awesome, can't wait to see all the write ups!

In. re to the day you're responsible for dinner, and you recommending mole or the chile verde, do we have to bring all the ingredients as well or just a few lbs of meat, and the $5 per head and they will take care of the rest?

As well, whats the gas situation like? I plan on bringing a few gallons of premium for the gregor but will I want to bring a spare 5 gallons for my car or will running out of gas not be a problem this time of year? Do you guys usually stop for anything over the border or NO, is everything purchased here in the states and we simply go for the straight shot down with no stops?

Just trying to get all my ducks in a row, i know you can never be to prepared for anything but.. Lol, headed down to Ysidro tomorrow for the SENTRI app. then will stop off @ INM to get the FMM stamped I'm gonna buy online later. all recommendations are greatly appreciated ha, as it's my first time

The Machaca for breakfast is awesome (especially when they make it with your leftover pulled pork)...
