I know the Vagabond and Miguel's is the normal meeting/dinner spot. I just checked on the Vagabond Inn website and it's $159.00 for the night of 2 September and $89.00 for the night of 8 October (before the eight day on SOA). I checked some spots further south, near CBX and the Holiday Inn Express & Suites : San Diego Otay Mesa 2296 Niels Bohr Court, San Diego, California 92154 is also $159.00 for the night of 2 September and about 23 miles closer to CBX. Just throwing it out there for consideration, however I'll go wherever the group decides works best for all.

I don't know San Diego. Alan said I could bunk in his room but I have no preference in where it is. I wonder if ear plugs are going to be needed

?? I snore a little and a little more if beverages are involved and they usually are >

I'm just going to get up early and drive down to the CBX on Labor day.

Sep 2nd is probably going to be expensive everywhere. The 3rd is Labor Day. I'll stay anywhere. Mike

I'm probably going to do that too...from my brother's house in Temecula.

Yes, Rapalas work great! I'm bringing a couple x-rap magnums. Just about anything works when they want to play. I'll bring some surface and yoyo irons. I use 8/0 EC circle hooks for the Mac's we make for bait.

Mark,

What size and colors of x-rap magnums do you recommend?

MarkT · February 11, 2018, 07:00:55 PM

I've used 20 and 30's in blue and green Mac.

ldoret94 · February 11, 2018, 08:38:00 PM

Thanks Mark...think I'll pick a few to bring along

Got my invoice from Rosie today. All paid up and ready to go.

Just have 6 and a half months to wait and get geared up now!

i'll get an email off to rosie pretty soon, or just talk to her at the fred hall show, and figure out the best place to stay.

Hardy Boy · February 26, 2018, 10:50:01 PM

Say hi to Rosie ! The show is this weekend is it not? She has been a dream to deal with. I'm looking forward to this trip. Just ordered a couple of xrap 40's just because I didn't have any and ........................ why not......................... what's more gear.

Cheers:

Todd

I've got two xrap 30's and two 20's ordered as well.

Are you guys planning on doing a lot of trolling out of the pangas? I originally thought you were talking "cast and retrieve" when discussing X-rap 20 and 30's. No way is anybody doing a c&r on a 40. I've never done this type fishing before and have no idea what works. At my age flylining a cabbie is about all the exercise I want except for reeling in fish. And tequila arm curls.

alantani · February 28, 2018, 04:30:16 PM

not sure. i figure they'll tell us what works best when we get there.

Hardy Boy · February 28, 2018, 04:30:32 PM

Wally15: When I was talking to Rosie she mentioned that trolling rapalas can be very effective at times and she recommended to bring some down. I think its another option depending on conditions, fish species and bait situation. I like live bait fishing and jigging but I don't mind some trolling as you never know what might wack a rapala.................... its easier to drink a beer while trolling. Always good to have options.
