    Today’s history lesson

    The English invented mayonnaise. People from Mexico tried it and loved it so they ordered cases of it. The English loaded cases of Mayonaisse onto the Titanic and they were going to deliver them to Mexico after stopping in America. But unfortunately as we all know the Titanic sunk. And that is...

    Forum Moderation

    In my opinion anyone who's been watching this forum for any length of time I'm sure has seen how participation has dropped a lot and the quality of the forum has really decreased. Just look at the postings the last few days. I follow a couple of different other forums, and they have strict...

    Yuma to Guaymas

    In the next few days wanted to do a Harley ride from Yuma to Guaymas and since I've never done this route was just looking for any feedback and suggestions. Referencing maps/Googlemaps was gonna take the toll highway from Yuma to Rocky Point, then head south via Hwy 37 and 3 to Bahia de Kino...

    Why the dead fish?

Usually see fish jumping, but nothing like these two days. And when I was heading home on Monday afternoon (it was...

    Health Insurance in Mexico

    Tried to search this forum for previous posts but didn't bring up much, just out of curiosity I've always wondered for those of you that are Americans living full time or spending a lot of time in Rocky Point or other parts of Mexico, what do you do for health insurance? Obviously assume a lot...

    Fishing report Aug 13th.

    Found some schools of Dorado 25 miles south of Rocky Point. Trolled with bright feathers and large bright Rapalas. Gotta be one of the most exciting fish to reel in with their aerial acrobatics.

    Hwy 5 south of San Felipe/Puertocitos paved?

    Last time I travelled the road south of Puertocitos was about 15 years ago and the road was not paved. Does anyone know if Hwy #5 south of Puertocitos/San Felipe is paved all the way south to Chapala? We're doing a road trip on Harleys shortly and wondering if we could take this road. Tried to...

    My Mom's pretty tough.

    I always laugh to myself when I ask guys from work to come fishing to Rocky Point and they refuse because they're scared of Mexico, going out on a boat, etc. My 84 year old Mom flew down to Yuma to come visit me for awhile and the first words out of her mouth when she got here is she wanted me...

    Fishing report Nov 9th.

    Went out fishing with Bill (Woodspinner) and a buddy last couple of days. Went out to 50 and 30 mile markers but rougher than expected. Bill showed us how to fish, pulled in a flounder, some red snappers, miscellaneous fish, and we tied into a herd of (thresher?) sharks. Cooked up shark steak...

    Motorcycle trip from US to Panama

    Around October 2016 (my dates are flexible) am planning on a one-way motorbike trip from Yuma, AZ to Panama in Central America. Was thinking about taking about one month to do it, ride down, leave the bike down there, then fly back. Gonna be riding down on an older reliable bike, nothing too...

    Posting GPS coordinates for fishing spots.

    Would others on this forum be for or against posting GPS coordinates of fishing spots around Rocky Point? Looking for feedback and opinions. I know, no one wants to give up their good fishing spots, but then again, its nice to have coordinates for new spots. I have all the GPS coordinates from...

    Fishing Report 8/25

    Weather a bit tricky yesterday, but a buddy and I made in out to the 50 marker yesterday and we were able to drop our lines for a few hours in the afternoon. Nothing super big, but was great fishing, lots of action. Glad to hook onto a few smaller yellowtail. Really surprised to see about 6...

    Gone fishing...

    My father just passed away, at the strong happy age of 91. Yes, 91. He was a friendly, stubborn sharp-minded retired farmer who never rested. He loved fishing, spent most of his life tormenting fish at this one lake called Island Lake up in Canada, it was truly HIS lake. My mom and him spent...

    Gold spot catch.

    Ya, I know, nothing compared to what Stuart or the guys down in Puerto Lobos caught, but we did great earlier this week. Spent Wednesday night out on the boat at Area 51, perfect weather, woke up to misty blue calm seas, and an orange sunset popping out over the mountains in the background...

    Peso/US dollar exchange rip off in RP restaurants.

    Noticed in some of the restaurants in Rocky Point they scam you by charging you twice for the exchange rate if you want to pay in pesos. When I get to RP I take out a lot of pesos at an ATM, then prefer to pay in pesos to not get ripped off by the restaurant's reduced exchange rate. But then I...
