Wow!!! The resurrection of this thread after nearly four years really gave me some startles! First I thought Seadweller was back, which would be a good thing. Then I saw a couple of posts from Happy and thought "Oh noooo, he's back!" Then I realized there was a pattern here and checked the...

Anyone looking for positive spin material might want to cling on the following statement from a retired DEA agent (quoted in the Az Daily Star): "At one point, Coulson said, Inzunza was causing problems for Rocky Point tourists — including robberies and at least one incident of rape, prompting...

Unless the lady on the balcony is known to be very familiar with military vehicles, I'd be skeptical about the tanks.

I'd like to think some of our eyewitnesses are shooting video, but it probably wouldn't be wise to announce it right now.

American Airlines.

How can the environmentally conscious consumer distinguish panga shrimp from trawler shrimp? Is there some place we can go to buy panga shrimp ? And is this a thread hijack?

I disagree that it all blew over and that research continued. "Today, the U of A Rocky Point research facility is no longer in operation..." (from Part 2) Yes, the version told by Steve Schwab was a bit less lively than what I'd heard, but that isn't the point. The point is that one day...

For the record, the federal govt. did not take back cabins and property in those places. The owners had built cabins on land that didn't belong to them and were given the option of either abandoning the cabins or removing them from Indian reservation or forest service land. I encourage...

Thanks for running that one down, Terry C. Now I at least know what the ruckus was about. And I wonder what Rocky Point would be like today if the partnership venture had succeeded.

Yes, I read that one, but all I could find was Part 1. Couldn't find any Part 2 if it even ever existed. I remember some friends being really horrified at the time, and one of them mentioned it again just the other day. But I their explanations seem to be pretty speculative, and I wondered...

I'm looking forward to your stories, but can anyone tell me about the 1980 incident involving the shrimp/desalinazation plant next to Las Conchas? And yes, any government can do those things. But the things governments do are long remembered. The incident I'm referring to happened in 1980...

Now some might consider this a thread hijack, but I don't think so. Who can tell us the story about the Mexican military takeover of the desalination/shrimp plant owned and operated by Coca Cola / University of Arizona / University of Sonora or some such paternership/conglomeration, next to Las...

Considering the limited amount of boat fuel invested, this looks like a tremendously successful fishing trip. Granted, I've seen pictures of much bigger groupers, but to a guy like myself who is more used to largemouth bass, crappie and trout, those things look like hawgs. Without the...

Do whitefish in the ocean have another name? the only whitefish I'm familiar with are in Montana trout streams.

Jeez, it's not even 9 a.m. yet. Are you folks drinking already?

Does anyone remember Bing's ice cream parlors in Mexico? Back in the 70s I patronized them in places like Puerto Vallarta and Mazatlan. Don't know if Rocky Point had them as I wasn't going to Rocky Point back then. But they were outstanding. The superior ice cream experience was just one...

Also look into La Pinta estuary. Search this forum for past discussions of La Pinta and corvina fishing. Some good info on how and when to catch corvina (sea trout.) La Pinta is located a half hour south from the highway junction east of Las Conchas and maybe 3 miles or so past Mayan Palace...

Your new software does not like my browser. Says it's out of date. But my Avast anti-virus says my Internet Explorer is up to date, so what's a guy to do? Yeah, I know, sounds like a personal problem, right? In the meantime, I can read the posts and navigate okay, but it all looks kind of...

Interesting theory, but I'm afraid the demise of quality, independently owned restaurants owes more to peoples' acceptance of chains and franchises these days. It's harder for places like El Parador (Mexican) and Amereno's to make it in a town that's filling up with Chile's and Olive Gardens...
