October 23, 2007:

The Encinitas resident and surfing instructor got lost on a dirt road in Baja California last month while looking for a surfing spot called Cuatro Casas. He and his girlfriend decided to park for the night on a bluff overlooking the ocean.

Just after sundown, two men wearing ski masks approached Weber’s motor home and ordered him to come out. He refused but surrendered after they fired a bullet through a window.

The assailants held a gun to Weber’s head while they ransacked the motor home and took about $10,000 worth of items. They also sexually assaulted his girlfriend, Weber said.

The Oct. 23 attack was one of at least six armed robberies and carjackings in the past five months that targeted surfers en route to camping spots in northern Baja.

More than 200 U.S. citizens have been slain in Mexico’s escalating wave of violence since 2004 — an average of nearly one killing a week, according to a Houston Chronicle investigation into the deaths. … in at least 70 cases, U.S. citizens appear to have been killed while in Mexico for innocent reasons: visiting family, taking a vacation, or simply living or working there. … In addition to those killed, as many as 75 Americans, mainly from Texas and California, remain missing in Mexico, based on FBI data.

I goto Valle de Bravo down near Mexico city every year. Never had a problem. I fly out of the TJ airport to Toluca. Of course Valle is where a lot of rich Mexicans have their lake homes so the amount of cops there is large to say the least.

I’ll be back to Ensenada next month to go fishing and back to Mexico again whenever a solid swell lines up with a weekend.[/quote]

Is there more fish in Mexico?

Just curious what attracts you so frequently back to Mexico?[/quote]

Yes, there are more fish in Mexico 😉

I am attracted mostly to the uncrowded surf but I think the fishing is better there too. Most of the longer range fishing charter boats out of SD head nearly due south from Point Loma. I prefer to drive (70mph) and sleep in a bed than do an overnight on a boat (15mph). I have had better luck (more fish) with the charters out Ensenada than out of SD.

Going to Mexico is not for everyone (apparently even less so for the Pigg population) but it can be a beautiful place. It makes think of what southern California must have been like way back when.

@ deadzone … I heard Salsi was letting surfers back in but I haven’t tried it since it was closed. Never caught the point good there, but had many fun sessions at the reef.
