    When is the Tequila Festival this year?

    Our family just had a great meal at Bacanora. Great service and creative dishes. The molcajete's were awesome. I had the Bacanora margarita and really enjoyed it. I sipped on it the whole meal. Alex mixed up a couple of custom dishes for some in our group who had particular tastes. We even...

    Crab....

    I spent 2 years in Philadelphia and got into the crab boils.... My neighbor brought 2 bushels up from the Chesapeake and i put them in coolers on ice the night before the party. The next day it was raining so i was prepping in the garage and decided to check on the crabs. I'll be darned if...

    Coconut palms on RP beaches?

    I love palm trees. I wish I could find the folks in Rocky Point who are responsible for trimming the ones on the public streets. They trim them too tight and put the trees into stress. Everyone likes to trim them to the top 3 or 4 fronds so they can trim less frequently. That doesn't leave...

    Price per pound for shrimp at the fish market?

    A number of new "fish market" businesses have popped up on the way to the actual Malecon. Has anyone tried any of those that are located from Latitudes to the boat launch or nearby? We are uneasy with how long the shrimp and fish have been on ice in the market and worry a bit more about how...

    Interesting building material for Penasco climate

    I used it on a patio in north Scottsdale. It looks really good. I'm not sure it is up to the extreme temperatures of AZ. We had a lot of expansion and contraction issues from low 30degrees to 120+ surfaced temperatures. Seems very durable and impervious. Might be perfect for the sea side...

    Small boat inshore fishing

    My 12ft'er with 5hp works well when there are less than 12" waves. We go out 1/2 mile or so, up and down the beach, to the estuary. It's ok for 2. A 14ft'r would be more stable and comfortable but i had to stay lightweight. Since we have a 7ft sea wall, I built a small crane jib and that i...

    Small boat inshore fishing

    We have a similar setup - 12ft aluminum w/ 5hp motor and like to take it just offshore over the reefs. If the water is calm and clear, we get nibbles on nearly every cast and often have 2 fish on at a time. We catch cabrillas and triggers. A plate sized trigger fish on ultralight gear is an...
