    RIP Jose Wejebe

    What an absolute tragedy. Had not heard about this until seeing it on this blog. Jose epitomized living life to it's fullest and doing what you love. His zest for the sport of fishing and for life in general was a great thing to witness. From everything I have read and from every comment...

    Inflatable Boats for close-to-shore fishing??

    All I have to say is, it is so kind of you Don to provide such detailed and informative information. I think that is what is so great about this forum. So many people are really generous with their time and information, even when they don't agree on political and other subjects (I know...

    Weekend fishing

    Wow, glad I asked that question! I'm not super well versed in what rig to use when fishing anything other than from shore in Penasco. This info is very useful. Thank you. And, to bring a second pole is always a great suggestion when fishing form kayak. In fact, funny story.... a buddy and...

    Weekend fishing

    Thank you for the information. Very helpful. I picked up a couple Rapala X-Raps. At $16 a piece, definitely would like to do as much as possible not to lose them (although it's always a strong possibility). So, one more question por favor: is 15-20lb test to light to troll with these...

    Weekend fishing

    QUESTION: Was hoping we could get some advice on what type of lures to use for Pinto, WSB, small Grouper or any other fish that could be caught close in and over the reefs near the estuary or of the rocks/reef around Competition Hill or Cholla Bay. Normally I primarily use the kastmasters &...

    Passport cards for children

    We were just down this past weekend with young kids. We always use their birth certificates and cruise through just fine.

    Better Sunset Experience: La Cava Music Bar or La Casa del Capitan?

    I agree. We were up there for lunch and/or late afternoon 'snack' & margarita's 2x this past weekend. The weather was so nice we sat outside each time without jackets or long sleeves. We also used to not be big fans of dinner at El Capitan as we often went up for sunset, guac and...

    whats the top shore bait

    Joe, I definitely feel your pain. Have lost a ton of lures as well. Should have put a disclaimer out there regarding that. Especially when I have run out or lost all the lures I brought down from the States and then have to spend $12-15 a pop at the dive shop (if they even have any in...

    whats the top shore bait

    Respectfully, I completely disagree with the Kastmaster comment. I have caught at least 30-40 flounder from shore over the years in Las Conchas and/or the estuary primarily using Kastmasters. Probably have caught another dozen or so flounder on Crocodiles. I would agree that flounder are...

    Major Fly Infestation

    We ended up having a friend loan us one of those electric 'tennis' type rackets that kill flies. It was dark and rainy today and provided some great entertainment for the kids. Plus, 25 cents per fly is a pretty good motivator. See, capitalism does work! (not...

    What a bummer. Thank you for this info Cortez! Does anyone know if citronella candles or any other trick might work to keep these pests away?

    Major Fly Infestation

    Does anyone have an updated or current report on the flies in Las Conchas? We have family going down this weekend and we were thinking about joining them but with it being cold and flies on top of it, not sure that sounds so great? Any update on the flies would be greatly appreciated...

    I would agree with your sentiment except for 1 item... ASU SUCKS too! And I'm an ASU fan!! Goodbye Erickson. (with that one 10-win season that was all Koetter's kids and momentum) Good bye derelict behavior. Hopefully goodbye penalties... goodbye wasted talent... goodbye lack of...

    More about dog food and groceries at the border

    This is disturbing. Being tested for steroids in one visit? Does anyone know of a way to check or ask where a certain restaurant gets their beef (like grain fed, no steroids, etc or is that just a pipe dream with being in Mexico?) Can't imagine the little kids who eat carne asada like it's...

    Full Moon Fishing ??

    Good question Joe. Yes, pretty much the same time each time, however just went out about about a half-hour later each day due to the tide. Pretty much each day was 2-3 hours after LOW tide. Tried to catch the incoming tide. I've heard in the past that fishing can get a bit finicky at both...
