I like the cat food idea! Cans are a lot less messy than a big stinky block of goo in the ice chest.... You guys all seem to do well in RP on the dead squid- Boy, I've had trips to Catalina where live squid was the only way you were going to hook a WSB- they wouldn't even SNIFF dead bait...

Three Boys is where I always buy my shrimp on my way out of town. I guess now I'll have to run by there when I get into town as well... Speaking of shrimp- how do they work for Snapper in RP? I know it's expensive to use as bait, but a lot of Gulf Coast guys swear by using shrimp tails for Red...

I'm curious whether any of you offshore addicts take the extra time to hang a chum bag when making bait, or are you able to load up on sabiki's alone? Also, have any of you ever tried jigging up live bait squid at night under the lights like they do in California?

I'm interested, but I can't commit to the dates at this point- Too much going on with work. I'll post as soon as I know whether I am a positive or a negative for that weekend. -In my experience, a typical fish loses about 15% of it's weight when you gut it. - Probably need Yellowtail...

I crossed back into the US from Sonoyta on Feb 8, 2010, and I had some time to make small talk with an Agent while they x-rayed my boat, so I asked them about the Passport question. Here's what she said: Adults must prove their citizenship- 1) Birth certificate alone will not do it because...

I'm wishing I was gonna be down there, but the annual family trip to Disneyland is in March (can you hear the sound of money being sucked out of my wallet?) Next trip to RP for me won't likely be until April. Nice Fish Seadweller!

If you guys happen to see this chump around the Marina, or at one of the restaurants, swing by and say "hi"

You might be a month or so too early for Corvina in late February- water temps are low 60's right now and the Corvina don't seem to be anywhere near shore I was fishing just off Pelican point this past weekend (2/7) and picked up easy limits of spotted bay bass and sand bass using scampis and...

My buddy Trent and I had a pretty good "maiden voyage" on my boat (now christened L'Mante) We found Safe Marina without any fuss thanks to Seadweller's directions, and put in at about high noon on Saturday after an uneventful trip down from the East Valley. Picked up some sardines on...

ReelHard- My boat is a white and blue Skipjack on a blue trailer, pics of it are in this thread: http://www.rockypointtalk.net/showthread.php?1070-New-Board-member-saying-Hi My first name is Robert- We'll be arriving on Saturday morning and plan to fish 1/2 day, and we also plan to...

I'll be heading to LeLe's bait shop (errrrr.. I mean supermarket) tomorrow after work to look over their bait (damn- I mean seafood) selection.

I booked a condo for next weekend yesterday. Me and a buddy will be heading down early the morning of the 6th. We will launch out of Safe Marina both days. Weather and wind forescasts look awesome so far- let's hope the forecasts hold up. We're not going to venture too far out- this being...

Cool, it looks like a lot of you "Rocky Point Pro's" will be on the water on Feb 6th and 7th... I just might be towing my boat down for her maiden Rocky Point fishing excursion that same weekend. Will probably be staying pretty close in for this first trip - I've got to do some fuel...

Hey everyone- just a heads up that the Northern Sea of Cortez Fish-N-Map might be out of print. Phoenix Fishing Supply was out, and I had to scour the Internet to find a company that actually had one in stock. I had 5 orders cancelled and refunded (including one from the Fish-N-Map company...

Well, let's just hope that the Japanese economy tips from deflation to hyper-inflation as many economists are now anticipating. Stuart- your comment about "decreasing demand creating lower prices" definitely works (in a much uglier fashion) when an "abundant" resource has been over-harvested...

Great. Thanks!

Ok, I know the US side (leaving Mexico, entering US) is open at 6am. Is 6am the same time that the Mexican side (leaving US, entering Mexico) also opens?

I ran out to Phx Fishing Supply today and picked up a copy of "Secrets of Super Grouper". Excellent book. I love that he included some emergency phrases in Spanish in case you have to call for help. Thanks to everyone who recommended this book. One question, though- You guys mention that...

One man's bait is another man's bread.... or something like that. Well, I gotta say- from the smell in that place (particularly during summer) I'm a lot more comfortable shopping there for bait then I would be if I was shopping for dinner :???:

Thanks! Great advice- I haden't heard of that book. I'll definitely check it out... :cheers:
