Cabo 2012 fishing trip

[Degree of Freedom]

I'm sure they scared the fish away, lol

I like the shorts...not so sure about blue jeans in Mexico, though...

It's funny that I just noticed that he was wearing jeans during the tuna hook up. I never noticed it at the time lol.

Thought i would just add a video of pancho the free loading sea lion

That video didn't work for me so here is another one.




There goes a 12 dollar meal paid for by us with no thanks. Fat *******!!! lol. The first day when he came up on the transom he scared the crap out of me cause I was standing right at the back of the boat and he was like 1.5' away from me. I got used him after that. Just another dude trying to survive in tourist town.

Hope this omne works.

The jeans were to hide my white legs, lol.

Here is a little video of firelights dorado that I forgot to post.

here's what a 1st class boat's upholstery looks like


Then there's the skunk flag that was flown more than once. Personally i wouldn't own one

 

[profisher]

By the fraying on the end of the flag I would say it has been flown numerous times. lol As for the padding...it would look better if they just removed it until they replace it.

Great post Thanks very much

What did it cost you per day to go out on that boat?

Just kidding of course but that seems pretty cheap compared to many Cabo and PV charters.

haha touche!

$600 is a comparable price when you book 4 days in Cabo. One day is more. FYI, You can get a 30 ft boat in Cabo for
$375 - $450. Now THAT is cheap. So is using my quote out of context, lol.

PV is more because they run a lot farther to get to the grounds on 12 hr trips. Probably going there next year and only fishing 2 days.

Gee, I thought Mexico was full of cheap upholsterers


The fat Sea Lion should think twice before he hassles a boat flying the skunk flag

 

[GDW]

Although I'm sure you made the best of it I bet all your buddies who were jealous when you left are glad they dodged this trip.

The fishing and all looks great despite the problems but man getting sick down there has got to be the worst.

I just like to kick a man when he's down lol. But in all seriousness, the last PV charter I was on was just over $1000. But like you said, there was a lot more running out to the grounds. And we only fished two days

I got food poisoning last year in Riviera Maya. Good way to ruin a trip right there....

Actually the boat with the skunk flag still has lots of live bait left cuz the fish didn't eat it

No worries, that was a gooder.

It was a little slow. But not the best season, we were down in March a couple of years ago, had a blast with Blackfin but no billfish
