You folks need to charter a bus to Branson, Missouri. That's where all the geezer pleasers go to die.

It's my opinion that political stuff on this type of forum is best kept to a minimum. It's hard to avoid it completely since the war on drugs, illegal immigration and cultural aspects of the U.S. and Mexico have impacts on Rocky Point and the border in general, but the less the better. I don't...

I'd say one of the reasons for declining posts is that there just isn't all the much going on in Rocky Pt. much of the time, especially at this time of year. It's a small town. Losing Seadweller didn't help. He was a local who knew a lot about what was going on. I think he quit posting...

Those look like nice-sized fish for shorefishing. Wish they'd come a little farther north.

I was afraid you were going to tell us that when you got home you'd been burglarized due to having announced to the world you'd be away in Rocky Point over the weekend. Lots of people don't seem to think about that.

Beach Dog's picture was taken in July. Story? Where'd you find that shark?

I'm waiting to hear someone is catching corvina. So far I've only heard of a few being caught. I do not care to catch sand bass around Rocky Pt. as they are too small for anything but bait, and I don't care to eat trigger fish. Corvina from shore and larger, good-eating fish from the reefs...

Playaperro, why dangerous in that spot?

Gotta love how Europeans have embraced and mastered blues. I really like this girl. My kind of music.

I've read the first one, The Reaper's Line. Some interesting stuff, especially about local corruption around Douglas/Agua Prieta, most in the 80s and 90s, and some of the names are still around. I thought the book could have been shorter. I haven't read the other book but will look into it...

Hey, I wasn't bashing Cleveland. Never even been there. I was just randomly picking a place that's far removed from the atmosphere and flavor of the northwester Sonoran coast. But since you brought it up, how did Cleveland of all places get the rock and roll hall of fame? Why not Memphis...

Sorry Jim, I can't help you. The best I'd be able to manage is a Thompsonian (Hunter) rant about the soul-deadening sterility of industrial tourism plants like Sonoran Sky, Mayan Palace, Tessoro and similar monuments to the irrational exuberance of greedheads who were old enough to know better...

Maybe it's time Rocky Point punts that innocent image that has become hopelessly unsustainable and re-brands itself as a haven for hell-raisers and walk-on-the-wild-side types. Heck, if the shoe fits, wear it. Just go rogue. Tell the public, that's right, we're Puerto Penasco and we're bad. Are...

Norty, you've got an outstanding web site. And evidently a pair of really big ones to be out there in a float tube. I use a Fish Cat for relatively sedate places like Big Lake and Becker, but you won't see me out there in a float tube where the big waves can suddenly come rolling in.

This story appeared in yesterday's (Sunday) print edition of Tucson's Az Daily Star. Violence fuels fears about Rocky Point, but diehards don't fret

Actually, I did not know about it. I probably would have missed Tim's blog if you had not posted the link here.

Panga crashes and armed convoys occupying Sonoyta - could this be a thread hijack? I'm certainly not complaining about this story being posted because it definitely needed to be, and I'm grateful to Playaperro for posting it, but doesn't it deserve its own thread? Some Rocky Point regulars who...

This one is first rate. Beach Home Rentals - Sales | Las Conchas | Rocky Point Mexico It's run by a guy who lives in Cave Creek but spends at least half his time down there. We've stayed there several times. Not cheap by Rocky Point standards, but I can't imagine how the accommodations or...

I blew off looking at these threads 2 weeks ago, but since it's revived I'll tie up a couple of loose ends. Roberto asked if I contacted Tim Steller of the Az Daily Star and brought him to this forum. Here's my answer. A couple of years ago another reporter gave Tim my name as a possible...

Lagrimas, did this whole Greek thing start with some fantasy you were having? Ever do time? Or do you sometimes fantasize about doing time? Not that there's anything wrong with you people, I'm a tolerant guy. But I notice you're the only one who is claiming the Las Conchas victims were...
