    good stuff if you are interested in Sonora history

    Good stuff Roberto................ Those are some LEAN looking Indios. Most certainly before the days of kilos de manteca de cerdo and bolsas de Tecate con heilo now available on every street corner. The hunter with the bow and arrow setup looks like he's all geared up for some big game like...

    Critical water shortage in Penasco

    So............ A couple of dumb questions from una tourista muy ignorante. Is there a sewage system in PP? If so where is the treatment plant? The Pitahaya in Mirador uses big pipes that drain theirs directly into the sea, you can see them when diving off there, always lots of chubby Cochies...

    Critical water shortage in Penasco

    More bait......... Two weeks ago Sinaloa in Mirador was awash at the foot of the hill heading to la playa. We thought "Oh sheet, hope we got agua"! That was until I saw the flotsam line of TP and little bits of Snickers. And AZ, when I go carpin I usually use my M1 Garand that way I don't...

    A First For Me - Food Poisoning!

    One thing to always consider is that maybe it wasn't the food at all. Ever think about the vasa de agua they bring to the table or the heilo in your drink? I've not had a puke or poop bout in RP since the 80's but know plenty who have. The most famous scoundrel of all "El Chino" with his two...

    A First For Me - Food Poisoning!

    AZ.... You didn't mention the watered down drinks they serve at that pizza joint. The first and last time we went there we ordered straight vodka on the rocks and their expensive grand seafood medley in a bread loaf. I called my waiter back to our table to let him know that someone forgot to...

    Anyone having any luck with Nightcrawlers or Bloodworms? Heard the Talapia are on a killer run right now hitting on canned corn and green peas. Someone said Pillsbury dough balls are just the thing for lunker Carp now. JJ

    What kind of fish is this?

    Hey Loud, So are you in some sort of scuba related business? We used to be until Ebay pulled the plug on every retail scuba store front in the country. We did a two weeker on Tobago a couple of years ago. Stayed at a place called Toad Hall. Probably the best diving ever. The locals are so...

    Critical water shortage in Penasco

    The crystal clear fresh water pool at my condo in Mirador contains more than 100,000 gallons of the good stuff. We have buckets that we use to flush the head as well as shower when the local system fails. We only drink RO or bottled water and RO ice, even in Yuma. The "street" water system...

    What kind of fish is this?

    That Osprey is hauling a male Rainbow Wrass. We get em pretty regularly lately while trolling along the rocks off of La Cholla. Forgot how worthless they were until I cooked one up last week. The transparent greenish blue flesh is kinda eerie also tons of bones and big scales. I always open...

    Cost of Living

    My little tuna boat with a 150 gallon fuel tank eats up at least $350.00 per trip of Yuma gas, not counting local daily top-off's at the Pemex on Sinaloa, of my big chicken-shit-white-privilege SS entitlement check that I worked fifty years for. Must not forget the diesel to feed my F-350 4x4...

    Fishing licenses on line?

    Hello Audsley............... I'm surprised that they were simply released. The usual scenario is immediate arrest and confiscation of the offending boat. Anyone can get a Mexican Fishing License online from the Vagabundos Del Mar fishing club at: www.vagabundos.com. It only takes a day or so...

    What's in the surf and inshore this time of year?

    Hey Jester.............. This time of the year you can get almost anything from shore,.....if your lucky. Offshore fish come into the shallows as they follow schools of bait fish like sardines, herring, smelt and mackerel. You can see the bait fish from shore as dark slow moving patches in...
