Don't get excited, this photo is NOT from Nicaragua. Pancho here again, reporting back from Indo. We just finished a killer boat trip to the Telos and Ments and we scored some sick ones. After getting skunked for the first two weeks, the last week turned on and gave up the goods. It's been a long time since I've been here and I'm happy to say that the last 6 years in Nicaragua have definitely paid off. I don't have tons of photo evidence to share because my camera died unexpectedly. Fortunately, the boat Captain (Capt. Crunch) took a few shots and shared them with us. This shot is from a fun right-hander in the Telo Islands. We surfed it alone for a couple of hours one morning. Every wave was a hollow barrel and the reef was always right there to keep you honest.

Yo Lance, check me out! On the first morning of our trip, we decided to drag a few lines. We caught two quick bonitos and then nailed this Wahoo! He was about 40lbs. You guys need to set up a Surfari Charters in Indo man - soooooo many fish just waiting to be caught. We also got a huge Sailfish on our last day - and we weren't even trying. We ate this guy for 2 days. Yum.

The highlight of our trip was a session at Rifles. Anybody who knows this spot knows that it's pretty fickle and you are lucky if it breaks at all. This day was well overhead on sets and FIRING! I got the longest backside barrel of my life here - at least 300m. It was unbelievable and made the whole trip worthwhile. This is a shot of me on my second wave there. I was stoked that Capt. Crunch stuck around and took a few photos this day. It's easily the best right I've ever surfed.

If it seems like we surfed a lot of Rights, it's because we did. In three weeks, I surfed two lefts. The first was 1-2 feet and the second was head-high Macaronis with practically nobody out. On this day I surfed for 6 hours straight. It wasn't the best Macaronis, but it was pretty damn fun. This is a lineup shot of one of the surf guides from the land camp there. How fun does this wave look?!!!

Here's a cool shot of our boat. She's an 80' wooden hull cruiser - built in the traditional Indonesian style. Here name is the Mangalui - Ndulu which means "Wave Searcher". She was the perfect vessel for our trip and I have to admit, it felt cool to pull up to a spot in a pirate ship.

That's all from here...for now. Mr. Brown and I are in Bali at the moment - it's flat today and tomorrow and we are enjoying tierra firma. I think we are headed to G-Land for the next swell so please stay tuned. It's looking like a fun one. This shot is from the deck of our boat. It looks a little like the September Sessions cover. If you've never been on an Indo boat trip, make sure you give it a go before it's too late. You won't be sorry.

After been checking Pancho's pics from INDO we are going to throw a couple of shots in from Nicaragua. Waves were kinda fun down here and almost nobody was in the lineup. It was running about chest to shoulder high on sets with nice offshore winds all day long. Check it out!!!
