My buddy and I hired a panga for two days looking for yellowtail the first weekend of December. We ended up catching 6 jurel (yellowtail) but over a dozen bonito and some sand bass. Bonus was a rather large yellow snapper (according to the guide) or maybe a grouper? Weather was delightful...

I seem to be having issues posting my photos (first size, then server error). This link is from my Facebook...

I see a hotel listed on Google in Puerto Lobos. Anybody checked it out yet? Is there any restaurants there? I am interested in going south but not in camping.

Hey amigos! Long time no post, but I continue to lurk. I seem to only get down twice a year these days :sad: The usual suspects are mostly busy or otherwise detained this Spring so we are not staying in Santo Tomas. My buddy has rounded up lodging in Encanto and likely a buddy car for at least...

We ate at the new restaurant in Alvaro Obregon (the farming pueblo you drive through on the way to Santo Tomas). I rate that as one of the all time best dining experiences of my life (and I have eaten at 5 star resorts and hotels). The woman cooked in San Francisco until she and family were...

What is happening in the area for 15-16 September El Grito and Mexican Independence? Are hotel, condo, and house bookings way up? Will there be any issues getting a cheap room for Thursday night? I would assume Sonoran tourists might want to enjoy the beach for the holiday. Thanks. Viva Mexico!

Hey all you Sea of Cortez salty dogs! I am heading south for my fall fling at the Corvina around Santo Tomas. I will post a trip report upon my return. I plan to take more stringer shots this time (if it is one of those kind of trips). I hope all the 1/2 to 1 1/2 pounders from May grew up and...

I just returned from Santo Tomas and boy are my arms tired! My only complaint about the three days of fishing me and 7 buddies had was the size of the Corvina. Most were running from 10 to 14 inches and slim. We managed to bag 20 to 30 keeper fish each day, some Corvina and some Pompano. There...

Any first hand reports on the previously mentioned detour for bridge construction? I and friends are crossing Thursday and Friday and would love to know if the alternate route is advised. Thanks!

Hey all you crazy Sea of Cortez frequent fishers! As usual I have learned ever so much reading your posts on this truly excellent forum! I have not been down to Sonora for one year when I last went to Santo Tomas corvina fishing. I am going down May 17-21 at long last. I am hoping to make it a...

Hi everyone! Long time no post. I haven't been south of the border since Santo Tomas in early May. Most of my travels have been for family events the past two years. By the way, we caught a ton of Corvina in May some of good size (up to 5 lbs). I am hoping the weather calms down and warms up by...

All my buddies were on Verizon and phones were working in Penasco. Sprint never did, so I switched and now it doesn't work. Really wishing I hadn't bought that smart phone. Makes me feel, well, not smart? ATT Tmobile still working for you guys? It may be worth my time to fight them to let me out...

:fish: Long time no fish! Howdy to all my friends on the message board! I missed you guys. Heck I miss going fishing in Sonora! I have been busy as all get out and haven't been south since my buddy gave his excursion a salt water bath in Santo Tomas last spring. Well my old gang will be back at...
