So Stu, when I'm live baiting do I hold the rod in free spool or something with thumb pressure? I assume this is to take the initial hit without snapping a rod in half. Also, thanks for the Sardines tip. And yea, the scales come off immediately and get all over the boat.

Hey JJ, btw good seeing you in Cholla Bay a few weeks ago. Are those Sardines good for whole dead bait or don't even mess with them? Rock bass and greenbacks damn near last all day in the bait tank. I was doing what the book says and cutting off the dorsal spines for SENOR Grouper. For bait...

From what I remember they were only carrying sidearms too. What is that going to do when the cuerno de chivos come out?

Thank you for your contribution. That is 100% them.

Just under 50 total miles Monday November 15th.

We arrived at the 12 mile reef first and decided to fish that fist. This time I was more organized and had a better plan of what I wanted to do. I sat there for a minute or two under idle to get a sense of the drift line. Once I had that I made sure that we were completely ready to go and reset...

4th Boat Trip Update: November 14-15 Well, we struck out hard on our last trip down a few weeks ago because the wind ended up being a little bit more than what windfinder.com said it would be. We made it about a mile or two short of the 16-180 reef and decided to turn around because the 3 or 4...

Water temp was 73°. They're definitely there. The flatties....

Thanks for your report. At least I'm not crazy. Funny thing is, we left on Tuesday morning at 550-6am we were past the bypass bridge and they weren't there yet. We were in the area of Barbs Rescue on Sunday morning going south around 815am and they weren't there. I guess criminals sleep in...

Checkpoint or they actually pulled you over while driving? They're aggressive to say the least.

I already reported exactly who they are and exactly what they wear. I didn't put the picture on here because I value my life. I figured if anyone is interested they can cross reference the agency in GOOGLE and then click IMAGE SEARCH and you'll see the exact uniforms. I read about the agency and...

No, I just included the boat information as more information but my main point was for you to go spearing from shore in CHOLLA BAY. Open Google maps or whatever and look at the south side of Cholla Bay. I personally would start at Pinto Point. Good chance for Spotted Cabrilla (Pinto, Leopard...

It's funny how many times per trip I say those exact lines to my girlfriend for different scenarios. The idea that even the most strictest of laws apply to you in a wildly lawless society is comical to say the least.

Jippy. When we got home I looked up any info I could find and I think he may be right. It looks like your Mexican fishing license is rod and reel and there is a second license you can buy to spear from a boat. Don't quote me though.

The banjercito website says that Lukeville is open going south into Mexico until 12am midnight. It says US North 6am - 8pm. We didn't chance it. Left early this morning. No checkpoints no problems. I even politely exited the vehicle for inspection from National Guard at the border which was...

Hoping to get a fast response but I see on the US Customs website they list Lukeville entry open 6am-Midnight. We also just read on Banjercito that we can enter into Mexico after 8pm. My friend may or may not be taking his boat down fishing on a last minute wim to get some good water on Sunday/...

I bought a gun a year or so ago to start trying around Cholla Bay. I have seen video from an Instagram page and the guy has nailed multiple Grouper and a yellowtail in the early Spring time. All near Pelican Point and to the east on the south side of the point. Problem is, my boat launcher in...
