    Cross Border Movers

    I saw them hauling a big load on my way down last week. Sign on the side of the truck, etc. Looked legit, but I dunno...

    So just how safe is Mexico? A new website trys to sort it out!

    Changing perception is not easy, especially after the media has done nothing but blast Mexico in so many different ways over the past few years. WE know things are relatively safe. However, you'd be surprised how many times I still hear "Mexico? I'd NEVER go; it's not safe!" from folks I happen...

    Blowing Yet Again (still?)

    This thread is nothing but an online promo for Shark Week, which started yesterday on the Discovery Channel. If you haven't seen their advertisement for "Snuffy the Seal", watch it, it's a hoot! Tag line this year? "It's bad week to be a seal!" Shark Week: It's a Bad Week To Be a Seal : Video ...

    Any MORE bleeding heart comments??? Good grief! You people take stuff way too seriously then fret over it and continue to beat it like a dead horse. :deadhorse: I learned about seal bombs from the Mexicans. And oh, the pirate ship that loves to toss them off in shallow water just outside the...

    Fall Grouper Tournament

    Well, we have a tentative plan. Talked with Dave this weekend and the tournament has been funded. Best dates at the moment look like Oct. 12 and 13. Monday is Columbus Day, so some are likely to have it off from work. Fairly flat tide that weekend. No promises on the wind, obviously! More...

    $5 each in quantity... $7 each individually. Figuring an investment of driving down there, launch fees, ice, gas for the boat, etc. going into the $500-$600 range at minimum, it's worth it. And as Shawno pointed out, moving to a different spot isn't always the answer because the sea lions just...

    The world is a crueler place when the fat bastards steal a big amberjack, the biggest white seabass of the day, and the only red snapper I've seen in a year. The sea lions need to feed themselves, not learn to rely on the fishermen for an easy meal. That's how nature works, no matter how PETA...

    Blowing Yet Again (still?)

    Spent some beach time today (no fishing) and ended up face-planting in the sand a couple times trying to body surf the crashing waves. Doh! It was fun though and actually got a couple good rides. Wind seems to be slacking now (of course, too late to go out). We get back to the casita and I head...

    Seal bomb - basically an M-80 firecracker in a red, round waterproof hard plastic shell, with a waterproof fuse. Makes a BIG boom! Generally, not always, scares the sea lions away from the boat, but doesn't physically hurt them or blow them up or anything. As far as scaring the fish - not on...

    Penasco on my mind

    If you were on a jetski in that surf today... you'd be dead! Russ... TRYING to go out tomorrow. If not, come by the Mirador by the old San Rafael?? We'll be parked by the beach in the shadow of the dead Azul(??) condos. Say Hi!

    Well... THAT was an adventure! Went down by the oyster farms, trying to get out to the mouth of the estuary to fish. Hit a very soft spot of accumulated sand and buried the ass end of the truck. Hiked up the trail and found somebody to give us a bit of a pull to get out, after much digging. You...

    Friday weather here - cloudy and BLOWING. Changed a bilge pump out in the boat yesterday and thought I was gonna die of heat stroke. Thinking of heading down to La Pinta for some shore fishing today, no way the boat is going out. Oh well...

    Mexican Eggs

    Long range boaters often take lots of eggs because of this reason. Key thing? Turn (rotate) the eggs every couple of days and they will not go bad.

    Questions about Mexican diesel

    I solved the problem by deciding to keep my '01 7.3 F-250. It's still a baby with 98,000 miles on it. Plus, the idea of huge payments for a $53k to $56k new truck (replace it like and kind) made the decision even easier! The long and short of your question is - short term use, no problem. Long...

    Sandy Beach Resorts pool and amenities question

    You would generally never know it if you went into the upstairs bar. The Pink Cadillac is actually a large open compound on the inside with access gates to the inside next to where the small diner is. Inside on the bottom level towards the front of the building is a pool, although I don't know...

    Fishing off the Mirador Beach

    Wrapping a school of corvina would be my 1st guess.

    Calle 13 & 12 - paving

    I know. But I'm a terrible creature of habit and ALWAYS go the same way everywhere I go in Rocky Point! :cruisin: :whine: Besides, if I have to come in the back way, I'll have to stop and watch the wrestling match that goes on. By the way, who is Dry Heat wrestling out back of Gaua Gaua next...

    Calle 13 & 12 - paving

    Could go over there with one of those big speakers on top of your car, park there, and just keep yelling "MUCHO TRABAJO!!! MAS RAPIDO!!" so that they get it done before I come down next week? Thanks!! :rofl:
