Rancho Day 1,2,3 and 4

Ya, really kool, I was never bored, It was amazing to looked down and see giant schools of Jacks or Pompano,

 Huge schools of Mantas darkening the water, stuff everywhere,

 Having such a good time, I had a good laugh @ myself when I grabbed my krocadile not noticing it was

covered with Jelly fish tentacles!!!!

  Felt like my hand was stuck in a 110v socket for a while... Kinda Kool

 I had heard that the Kayaks down here are in Bad shape and I would have to disagree,

 Lots of choices, and even the Hobie Mirage Drive is holding up well under very extream conditions,

 I was going to tighten up the knobs, but I realized it worked fine lose, and with the sand and people who don't know how to use those things, it's probably better to leave it lose,

 To answer you question Obi- Wan, I'm blown away with how well that system works under duress,

 Got to give it to Hobie on that one, and I'm not going to be as Gentle with mine 


Talking to regulars down here, it sounds like July is a more consistant good bite.

Most that I have talked to rarely come in June, but wanted to try it because July was so Hot,

 The reef in front of the ranch is teaming with fish, great for snorkeling, just got to take the occasional hit

 from Mr. Jelly

 The Ranch is definitely worth the trip,  I would like to return with a rouge group of NCKA'ers and tear this

 place up.....

That 3rd pic is " The Pile of Dead Yaks "                 Kayakas Muretos

                     

 

I love it, the Ocean Kayak Scrambler XT is so tough you can use it as a lever to lift fallen trees.

 ,  Good One!!!! Those are nice yaks, I noticed people ( new to Yaking ) having trouble with the

larger yaks, really appreciated the ease of the scambler..

  I tried Spikes Scupper Pro, That's a Kool Yak, Too bad they don't make that one anymore....Danglin

Danglin'

Looks good down there and a great report. It would be nice to get a group of us "crazies" down there and reek havoc on the fish. I'm in, I've always wanted to head down there and fish with Dennis.

Great report Danglin. Sorry it was not as fishy as you had hoped. I have yet to make the Rancho trip but would like to the next time a NCKA group is headed down.

Sounds good to me....
