I didnt know exactly where to post this thread, but since its got a lot of (crummy) photos, I'll post it here.
We were greeted to southern baja with mild temperatures and a nice south swell. The water fluctuated between the mid 60's and 70. :shock:

I forgot just how much i love bodysurfing. It had been a long time and I truly enjoyed the pounding :D

I did manage a few casts between wave sets, with nothing to show for it :roll:

A school of goatfish. This school contained 1000s of fish and may have covered 3000 sq. ft.!

The westin regina resort. A very classy place. A little above my standards :shock: We had a 1/2 off deal for the resort so we stayed there 5 nights of our trip.

This is a desert iguana. My son wanted so badly to catch one, that we took some pretty extreme measures in our attempt. Picture this... A father and son, scaling the rock cliff next to the resort (where everyone else is sitting by the pool and sipping cocktails) with a noose fashoned from a TiCrX 12 wt. trying to lasso a big lizard....

I hope all these photos arent too boring. I know this is a flyfishing board and the story only contains minimal flyfishing.
