Arrow Looking for camping buddies for Orange County to Big Sur trip, Friday through Sunday



Hey everyone I've got an open schedule from Friday afternoon through Sunday for the rest of this year and I'd really love to spend that time camping/spearfishing up in Big Sur (Central California). Normally I'd ask my friends, but their schedules don't mesh well with mine so I thought I'd open the invite to anyone on spearboard.

I plan on making repeated trips up there for the rest of the year (depending on conditions). And I'd like to split the gas bill and have someone join me in the water to share the stoke of whatever we catch. It's more fun that way

For anyone that doesn't know me, my name is Daniel Burke I live in Southern Orange County and I've been spearfishing for 4-5 years now. Don't let my baby face scare you, I'm 27 years old. I'd say I'm an expert as far as being comfortable in the water no matter the conditions, whether it's murky, surgy, windy, or cold. But that doesn't mean I'm an expert at holding my breath. I can dive to 50+ feet, but I prefer to stay shallower than 30ft. Since I don't normally get cold I typically like to stay in the water as long as possible, which can be the better part of the day.

I can pick up people on the way there, you just need to bring a sleeping bag, pillow, warm clothes, a tent, food, and spearfishing gear.

And if there's time on the way back, we could always stop to pick up some bugs either in the day or night.

But really I love Big Sur. You can always find lingcod, rockfish, cabezon, vermillion, and more in Big Sur. It's such an amazing place up there and I'm addicted to it!

So send me a PM if you're interested in joining me on a fun adventure and we can make some plans

Re: Looking for camping buddies for Orange County to Big Sur trip, Friday through Sun

Conditions are looking good for Saturday, but picking up on Sunday, but still dive-able.
I wouldn't mind going, but I can't, a buddy dove Jade cove last week, and he said it was bad vis, we need a good storm to wipe out the kelp and clean the water up.
Even if I was to go, I would have to meet you there, because I live north of Fresno,
are you bringing some bugs for dinner?

No bugs for dinner this time, but I could easily bring up some bugs for next time. Just need someone with a portable grill.

I won't be able to make this trip. However, I would like to join you in the future.
