Here is a Baja report: fished today out of SJDC marina north to Vinorama, trolled and hooked two decent Wahoo fairly early, sat on bait for tuna and it was dead, trolled back and had one dorado takedown that didn’t stick. As of now no fish in Bisbee’s, yesterday two marlin came in at 200ish that don’t qualify. Stoked for these fish, fishing is spotty down here right now.

Found one, thanks CWT.

AGFD -- Quail Season Outlook
Siwash replied to Outdoor Writer's topic in Small Game, Upland Bird, and Waterfowl Hunting
Took 4 in a few hours in an area I haven’t hunted regularly in almost a decade. Counted 17 empty shells so there was plenty of opportunity and two of the coveys I got into held 20+ birds. They played the usual run then flush out of shotgun range early-season behavior. I plan to give it a couple more hunts this season when the weather cools, it is nice to see birds in huntable numbers. -

No GMUs or topos but here is a cool old map I inherited from my grandparents. It is about 3x4’

I shipped an Encore barrel to AK last week via a UPS store. Other than being expensive it was a pretty easy transaction, I told the dude what it was and he said “let’s call it a metal rod.”

Watch the Aztec for 1.75 day trips in October/November if you want a shot at a big bluefin.

Had an awesome 2 day on the Apollo, dorado and YFT limits in one of the best wide open bites I have seen. A few nice tuna over 40# but most were 15-20# #2 hooks and 20# flouro was the ticket. We fished the tuna pens in MX waters.

OK, its seen a lot of field use and I should’ve posted but didn’t yet, I want would want $ 350 for it if it doesn’t sell as a package

Several years ago trolling for sailfish in the Sea of Cortez we kept getting our ballyhoo baits nabbed and lines cut by something...we threw out a Maruader with wire leader...then someone got up in the crow’s nest and confirmed it was sharks not Wahoo molesting the troll:)

We include French’s fried onions on ours for some crunchy contrast (not pictured)

If you are chucking jigs 80# spectra with 50# mono top shot should work...maybe go bigger at Guadalupe or Alijos...if you have a week to fish;) It’s tough for flyline baits to tow heavy mono tho, I would go with 50# braid and 30# test with a rod that can lift and load at 8-10# of drag and a two speed to winch any fiesty YT that try to go deep and break you off on the rocky bottom. I run PowerPro braid with no complaints but I am far from a pro, lucky to fish 7-10 days a year. I like to run braid to mono for stretch to flouro. Avoid the green braid if you can, It is very difficult to see at dawn and late in the day.

I also use the boom snip, I find the pliers stay in the box now.

BFT limits on a Red Rooster 3 day and a ton of quality YT. Fished near Tanner Bank and Cortes.

My father is almost 71 years old and will be retiring next month. He has expressed an interest in welding and I'd like to get him a basic welder so he can tinker around with it, and not drive my mother and the rest of our family crazy with all of his free time. When he was younger he was a pretty legit mason for a hobby, but lugging around bricks and 80# sacks of concrete are no longer enjoyable for him. He won't need anything industrial or be welding together trailer frames, etc. I doubt he would do more than tack together old pieces of steel for yard art, at least initially. 120V will be fine and something light/portable would be good as they have a summer place up north and I suspect he will want to shuttle it back and forth. I'm looking at these models, if anyone has any experience or knows of a better "starter" set up please let me know. Also, aside from what these models provide, what else is needed? A helmet and some gloves? https://www.weldingsuppliesfromioc.com/lincoln-power-mig-140c-mig-welder-pkg-k2471-2 https://www.weldingsuppliesfromioc.com/miller-millermatic-141-mig-welder-907612 https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/hobart-handler-140-mig-wire-welder Thanks for looking.

34A Early Rifle hunt expectations / tips
Siwash replied to lamrith's topic in Rifle hunting for Coues Deer
Glass North faces in the shade when it is hot. If you are still hunting the last few days when the moon is full don’t slip on deer midday stretch and feeding activities and expect limited morning windows with deer on their feet. As others have said, in October bucks are batched up in groups and less pressured than the 2nd/3rd hunts, usually. -
