| Originally posted by gringorio Hey Nomad’s For those in the know I have some questions regarding the artisanal fishermen in the Sea of Cortez: I’m wondering about the seasonality of what they fish? In other words, what is the target species in a given month (or season: summer, winder, spring, fall)? Does the target species change depending on location/season? For example, in May in Cabo, X species is the primary target of the pangueros, but in May in Mulege Y species is… Any insight is appreciated! gringorio |

| Neither commercial (In the sense of huge factory boats) or sport - I mean the lone panga with a couple Mexican fishermen who earn their living by by
long-lining, gill-netting, shrimp fishing ... "Artisanal" fishery used to describe "small-scale, traditional fisheries." I supposed a question could also be "What were the traditional panga fisheries targeting and what are they targeting now?" I'll check into Gene Kira's book too... 
are you referring to commercial or sport? when you say artisanal fisherman what do you mean? a good reference is The Baja Catch by Niel Kelly and Gene Kira |
