I’ve driven from CA to Geurrero Negro twice to surf. That town itself kinda sucks but there are just endless vacant point breaks north of it where you can camp, surf and fish in almost solitude. Highly recommend.
I also don’t mind Todos, but it’s been a few years (‘19 I think) and maybe now it’s overrun. At that time we went to a street carnival in their old town square and ate $0.50 tacos with $1.00 beers and watched a band play off the alternator of a running ‘94 Suburban with maaaaybe three other white people in attendance. The Baja coast is pretty close to paradise and is something like 90% undeveloped which is the complete opposite of Southern California.
This is the way. We finished our place in Alaska last year and will be spending summers up there and winters somewhere warm and probably not in America when the time comes.
I just want to be near the water where I can do a little fishing and a lot of reading and walking and eating good food. Maybe baha north of Cabo, but I’m open. Buying definitely seems like a waste of time and money.
Back in Juneau for another run at salmon and halibut. Spent tonight at the beach in like 65* sunshine watching my boy warm up on the pink salmon with his 8 wt.
Tomorrow we’ll be out 35-40 miles into Icy Strait wrecking the silver salmon.

Just left the mountains outside of Asheville and it was 96*. The US is on full broil right now. Except Juneau where I’ll be next week with highs in the low 60s.
I feel like I’ve seen it at $400 or so, but probably not for a ‘17. I think I snagged this when secondary was like $215 and I have had plenty of bottles I liked less for $400.
Yes, it’s good if not quite up to Woodford VFORB which was my favorite low proofer in recent memory. It seems to lack a little definition other than some significant aged oak flavors, but it’s definitely an easy drinker. I’ve passed on retail backups if that tells you anything.
There was a time last year when he had a story up from Lake Travis (surf boat on the rocks) and Auke Bay, AK (#damnrollers incident) which hit incredibly close to home for me. Every time I launch at a public ramp I’m double checking everything twice to make sure I don’t end up on the QC, so I guess that’s a service in a way.
Do i get to use the boat? I want to use the boat.
I’ll leave it gassed up and ready at any dock in southeast, $105k. Maybe that will inspire me to get a new one on order.
Caught a couple of King Salmon, a couple Ling Cod, a way early season silver salmon and a halibut off the west coast of Yakobi Island about 90 miles away from our place in Juneau. Then we got chased off by an 8-10’ swell that was pure terror in my 26’ boat. Spent the night in Lisianski Strait, fueled in Pelican and heading home now.
