It was bound to happen eventually. Even the Mexican guys I work with won't drive new vehicles back to Mexico.

Maybe if you buy 3 junkers chain the boat in the middle and drive that down there they won't notice

I so hate to hear this. Both the issue with bandits and Donald Harper. Personally, I would never go down by myself;only with an outiffter like Ron Speeds. Outfitters have Mexican drivers and Mexican connections.

Prayers for Don Harper. Miss his advice on here.
I'm glad your buddy is alright. I thought about going on the last trip Don had posted, but my work had published the increasing dangers and that our insurance could be null and void in some of these cases. So I didn't want to risk it.

I want to thank everyone for the well wishes. 38 radiation treatments are all done on a tonsel that grew back and became cancerous. It is about healing now. Another PET Scan will be done in 2 months to see if the cancer is gone. Can't wait to get back to fishing.

Was planning a trip with my son and son in law down there to fish but feeling funny about it. We will choose somewhere in the US!
See you on the lake and have a great day!

Good luck with your recovery Don. God Bless You. Not only did Don go to Lake Oviachic for 37 years, a lot of those years he went two or three times a year, no telling how many bass Don caught at that lake.

Glad your buddy was ultimately ok and I hate hearing that about Don. I still can't figure out why we send troops half way around to world to fight in a desert for people that don't like us nor want us there yet we do nothing about a very dangerous place that shares our border. I have a lot of SEAL and other special forces buddies and they've all told me that is the right groups were sent in strategically, they could wipe out every cartel in less than 6 months. Yet, we do nothing.
