As far as April goes, in years past, it has had a pretty steady flow of both regular visitors and new visitors. Not sure sure that it will be very busy this year though. We spent a considerable amount of time in Penasco last April and May and it was pretty dead the whole time. Hopefully...

No offense, but not the best SUBJECT TITLE "Body Count" for this question. Just a thought considering the hyper-sensitivities by the media and potential visitors to Rocky Point these days...

Does anyone know what kind of fish those are? They kind of look like the, now, almost extinct Totuaba ??

Yes, they do still have druken shrimp and it is really good.

Thanks for the input Kenny. (was offline most of the afternoon) I was throwing a Kastmaster, yes. It was pretty windy in the morning yesterday, so didn't end up going back out. May give it a shot this morning. In the past, have occasionally picked up a few flounder in the winter months, but...

Friday night, we went to La Curva for dinner, and were very surprised to see the entire main dining room completely packed. I think there was only 1 table available when we got there around 7pm. Nice to see after NOT seeing it that way, with any restaurants in Penasco, for a very long time...

Went out, yesterday morning at incoming tide, to the Las Conchas side of the Morua Estuary. Fished for about 45 minutes and didn't have a single bite. Have had pretty good luck in years past out there, however after last January's ('10) huge storm, there have been new sand bars deposited on...

Much thanks to everyone who has provided input. It sounds like Verizon is definitely not the ticket for Rocky Point at this point. In the meantime, it seems like I need to either continue suffering through the AT&T woes in PHX while enjoying great coverage in RP, or switch from AT&T and...

Wow, that's hard to believe. Hard to imagine it can be worse than AT&T with how many dropped calls I get in PHX, but definitely take your word for it. Most folks I have talked to living in the Valley are happy with their Verizon coverage and most folks I know who have AT&T, primarily...

Very helpful. Thanks for this info Rob.

Thanks Jeff. When you say 'pricey', do you mean for the monthly service in the states or the per minute rate while in Rocky Point?

I know this has been discussed in prior posts, however I am curious if there have been any recent changes with Verizon being able to get quality reception (or any reception) in Rocky Point?? I have been with AT&T for years, primarily because it works so well in Rocky Point. However, I drop at...

Yes, Tacos Brisas has a meal they call Papas Rellenos (sp?) It consists of potatoes steamed in foil with butter, then covered with tons of carne asada, freshly grilled green chile strips and then topped with an amazing Mexican cheese. Everything is wrapped up in foil and then heated over hot...

I don't have the exact address, but if you turn onto Sonora Blvd just off Benito Juarez, drive 3 blocks and take a left. (Sits directy across the street from a gym) Not the most scenic location, however food is as good as it was back in the day.

Gringa, obviously a lot of great opinions. Many varied of course, however that to me shows how many good options there are to eat out (or take in) in Penasco. For my wife & I (and most of our friends who come down), we like the following: 1) La Curva - never once have had a bad meal there...

Great food, great service (Norma is the best) , arguably the BEST MARGARITAS in town. If you like FLOUNDER, the Fish Veracruzano is fantastic. Very large portion. For Mexican food we like the Green Chicken Enchiladas, the Drunken Shrimp (if you're not on a diet) with tortillas and beans...

I totally agree. Driving down to the Malecon and being able to park in front and run into one of the restaurants, or to buy shrimp, is part of the experience of going to Penasco. I think Kenny mentioned this as well. The one thing I have never understood, especially when it is busy, is why...

I have bought shrimp, scallops, clams, flounder, sea trout, and "chicken fish" (which is unbelievable) for over 20 years from Jose'. Jose has his own place now right below what is/was (?) "El Perrico" next to the statue on the Malecon. I think he used to work at Armando's but opened his own...

This is a complete race-baiting sham. This "brown" talk is straight out of the NAACP and ACLU playbook. Is it any wonder Al Sharpton marched down the streets of PHX wearing a Suns Jersey?? This whole issue has nothing to do with race and has EVERYTHING to do with ILLEGAL immigration. The...

I am not technical beer connoisseur or recipe expert, but I know in Europe they do not put sulfites in the wine like they do in the states which really prevents headaches and/or hangovers. I wonder if that may be the explanation for the taste difference and headache difference with the Mexican...
