Your best starting point for some of the closer reefs is to buy the book 'Secrets of the Super Grouper' by Wally Schemerfield (might be off on the spelling of his last name, sorry Wally, RIP). It provides tips, techniques, and GPS coordinates for many of the reefs. Phoenix Fishing Supply generally carries it, as well as Sun N' Fun Dive Shop in Penasco. Sally's advice was also correct - talk to the locals. I've gained many of my coordinates from local Mexican charter captains over the years. Some good, some just okay.

I was under the impression that there was an unwritten rule among fishermen not to give out fishing spots or coordinates that were given in confidence. Those numbers are pretty close to some I have. They should get you started. Buenos suerte
Buy the Super Grouper book anyway. It has a lot of good info.

I have also heard if you pay the shrimper captains they will give you coordinates. They have to know them to avoid them or get their nets tourn up. I also heard if they hit a reef and ruin nets they get fired.

WE have several captains in the family and this is true Bill. You would be smart to copy down the co-ordinates posted as these are good basic way points. Once you get to any waypoint it is a good idea to cruise the reef and find your own rocks- Not every rock holds fish. I have the same list as sally but it holds 84 way points
