Extranjero - "stranger fish" - is actually gold-spotted bass. They regularly have them at Lee Lee market in Chandler, too. Pargo is an entirely different fish. Cochito - Trigger fish Corbina, Curbina, etc. - sea trout Other stuff - scallops, snails, conch is correct. Hanta is most likely...

You don't need a permit. However, make sure you launch from Safe Marine and file a dispatch. Safe Marine requires you to file one. Basic info, like boat registration number, names of who is onboard, who to contact in case of emergency, heading you'll be taking, how far you're going, when you...

Joe - I've seen them launch and recover panagas at La Pinta. But keep in mind you're launching over sand, so 4 wheel drive is a must. I've nearly buried my truck out there a few times and had to air down the tires to dig out. Not too bad if you run on the wet sand, but if you get back further up...

Nice boat... a classic! You do not need to "license it" for Mexican waters for fishing in Rocky Point. Your AZ registration is fine; the Free Zone applies to boats as well as vehicles. A Mexican boat permit is no longer required. However, if you tow further south, like San Carlos, you will...

The Mayan Palace is just north of the La Pinta estuary and borders the north side of it.

Ha! I've never seem this behavior from the dolphins in Penasco. They will come up and play around the boat and jump in the wake, but they won't even take a fish if you toss it to them. The sea lions, however, are a totally different story. Not beggars, but thieves. We've had some nice fish...

If Buoyweather looks good, Connie and I are bringing the boat back down for the fall/winter season. Got my annual maintenance all done (it's hell doing it yourself when it's been 115!). We'll definitely look for you two. My B-day's not far off, either, so this may be the only chance I get to go...

Bart Waldo (an amigo of mine) that runs the San Carlos board won't be as tolerant of Happy's antics. Plus, San Carlos *really* got pummeled by the hurricane. The pictures and links posted over there are incredible. They got a huge amount of rain, something like 11 inches. Most of the main roads...

Okay, maybe tooting my own horn just a little bit (toot-toot!), but I absolutely love it when I get mail like this from guys that have bought my lures. "This lure was absolutely amazing! We caught 90% of our fish on this lure. We named it "Sexy Lilliani" after the sexiest girl in Punta...

You're better off recycling them here and just donating the money????

You can assume that the harbor master will probably shut down the port Friday afternoon if the current predicted track holds true.

Well... I'm not worried because I'm not foolish enough to be out there (on the water). I've never seen a Buoyweather prediction quite like this, though. 8-11 ft. waves predicted all this week, with up to 12-19 ft. on Sunday!! This is predicted about 10 miles + out, although I'm sure it will...

This really changes nothing - drugs have always been available in Rocky Point (well, most anywhere) if you wanted them. It just removes the chance of being thrown in prison for getting caught with a joint. I'm sure the local police will hate this. It's one less way for them to rip off the...

Yeah, I'm not keen about snorkeling around the island at all. 1) Yes, I did see a great white; 2) The gal that got severely bitten by a sea lion (her story was on the old forum, but she damn near bled to death). That said, I have snorkeled at the island before, but after getting challenged by...

I had ceviche for lunch today. And dinner the other nite. My recipe? Quick, easy, simple. 1. Use at least a pound of fish. (I used 2 lbs. of white seabass I had vacuum packed in the freezer, but any white fish works well. Fresh tuna or dorado make excellent ceviche! Sierra is also...

I'm gonna win it.

I'm not sure, but look for DHL. I've shipped stuff to different places in Mexico and was always told by the folks I was shipping to to use DHL.

I've watched it. To me, it's just an attempt to capture more of the Deadliest Catch's glory. And it does seem a bit scripted, with many "Perfect Storm" overtones.

SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!! The narcos should use these instead of guns. Terrifying. I nearly stepped on a huge, true stonefish in San Carlos while snorkeling. My son saw it move as we were stepping up on a rock beach and grabbed my arm. It was in about three feet...

Just saying... isn't it illegal for us gringos to take any type of shellfish? I suppose if you eat the evidence, who's gonna know? Cool video. I think I'd make some kind of spearing contraption, like a frog gig. Or perhaps a suck-gun. No way I'd want to be reaching around in the those rocks...
