They were pretty nasty until the sun went down. We only had basic repellent. Bring some good stuff.

Anyone can catch fish in a boat but only \"El Pescador Grande\" can get them from the beach.
I hope when my time comes the old man will let me bring my rod and the water will be warm and clear.

Nice video!
In August of 2001 my wife and I towed our 21 ft Potter built Seacraft to LA Bay. We stayed at Raquel and Larry’s and launched from the Villa Vita
ramp.
We spent 2 nights out at La Guardia with one at Este Ton and the other at Refugio.
At that moment in time the offshore islands were a known stop for the Sinaloa folks and there had been reports of wrong place at the wrong time
happenings. I was not overly concerned but kept my eyes open.
We caught dorado every day, we snorkeled, beach combed and generally goofed off the whole time. The one dorado we kept daily was grilled nightly while
on the hook and was delicious.
While snorkeling near Isolote we were visited by the Navy. My wife was freaking out as the skiff and the boys with guns came up to us quickly. I had
noticed then Navy frigate earlier and was not surprised when they sent the skiff to visit.
Later my wife asked why I was so calm. Simple I said, “When the military is here they are not.” She asked who are they? I just smiled and said
it doesn’t matter because they are not here.
I never did tell her about the then recent incident of “them” running out of fuel and holding a fisherman hostage near Refugio while his companion
and his boat went back to LA Bay for fuel for “them.” It all ended safely for everyone that time but it was not something my wife needed to fret
about.
The beach combing on the northern point is awesome and the sea lion colony out there is the loudest party I have ever heard. All night long they
went on and on and sleeping was difficult.
We used to drag our boats all over Baja and spent the night at many a place on the hook. Refugio is one place we will always remember. Thanks for
reminding us!
�And it never failed that during the dry years the people forgot about the rich years, and during the wet years they lost all memory of the dry
years. It was always that way.�― John Steinbeck
