30 Days
#16
I was down there in 1973. A buddy of mine and I took our motorcycles down the Baja. Figured we'd be gone about a week since we only took $150.00 a piece. Well, it was six weeks later that we came back into the U.S. We watched a lot of the locals fishing and they didn't have poles, reels or any gear. They just had a spool of line with a weight and the hook on it, swung it over their heads and tossed it out. So thats what we did. Talk about a blast! We would put almost any kind of scrap on the hook and could catch a Triggerfish. Then we would cut the Triggerfish up and use it for bait. The strangest thing I caught was a big old eel. Can't tell you how big it was. I was pulling my line in with my head tourned talking to this youg lady we met when she let out a scream. It starteled me and when I looked at my line there was about 2 feet of an eel that was about 3" in daimeter on the rocks. It startled me also so as soon as there was any slack in the line there it went. Went down to the bottom and wrapped its self around a rock and it was all over. Tried for a long time to get it to realese and even left it alone for an hour or so but it wasn't giving up. I finally just cut the line and let it be. Al
