We're looking to go either towards the end of September, or late November into the winter time.  Anyone interested?

I need revenge after hitting the 10 year swell on our spring trip.  While we got into some nice fish, we didn't get to fish the area we really wanted to get to.  A few weeks later a crew from Hobie and Sportfishing Magazine did get to hit that area, and this was there result.

Depends on what and how many days we put together.  Figure $2K-ish.

The Hobies are not with the outfit I use.  They are with another outfit.  If it's a showstopper, we can check into renting them, but costs would go up.  No promises on this one ...

Just you?  It would be an easier sell if there were 2-3 of you.  Then we can send a panga to watch the spearfishermen and one to watch the kayak anglers.
