well, it's been a very very happy new year so far for all the nomads gathered here for the holidays. Everybody is catching fish, singing around timo's
campfire, drinking Barbarenos paralysers, and generally having a great time. Awful Art left today so he could watch the game in GN and Sirenita and
her bartender....er...novio also returned to Ensenada but Vagabundo is still hangin out catching croakers.
We look forward to a new nomad joining us...he is only 18 but had the time of his life here this week...hanging with Nomads, Sirenita and the surfer
kids here and THEN caught this monster yellowtail...they'll be back!!

So how big is the fish!!!
Timo1 - 1-4-2009 at 07:37 AM
He weighed in at 31 pounds 12 ounces
shari - 1-4-2009 at 07:52 AM
It's funny cause when I saw that fish, I thought oh yeah, a forty pounder for sure...it looks smaller when Gary holds it as he's a BIG guy himself.
It's the biggest YT this year...jajaja...so groovy Gary holds the record so far....this kid ROCKS....nicest teen guy I've ever met...he cooks, he
cleans, he is an excellent conversationalist around the campfire, he parties, he helps out, the girls love him, he's the 18 year old bomb! and already
a legend in the village...wish I had some photos of him downing tequila with the surfer boys on new years....cant wait for them to be part of the
fiestas this summer.

Hope there are still a few more like that one around next week. Maybe we can have some burro bar-b-q with some yellow tail sashimi.....dt

No problema amigo mio...today Juan took out Santiago and his boys and got them into some great yellowtail AND found more tuna too...woooohooooo
shari - 1-4-2009 at 09:26 PM
Drew had never caught a fish before and Santiago was teaching him to let down the lure to jig and BAM...he caught a nice yellowtail...and we were all
really happy they got tuna too...yum yum...gonna fire up the smoker again.

Wow. The fish just keep coming. Glad to see all is well.

As usual, it looks great there, and the fishing epic! Hey, need a doctor there? Dra. Pescadora and I are almost ready to give it up here. Economy and
business slow, and she misses Mexico badly.
shari - 1-6-2009 at 09:15 AM
Can Ms. doctora pescadora "fix" female dogs????
Sharksbaja - 1-6-2009 at 12:45 PM
Hi Shari, just wondering, how many fish can one keep per day down there? That looks like a whole lotta fish for just 3 people. Hope you save some for
future generations.
bajabass - 1-7-2009 at 09:01 AM
Sorry Shari, she only works on people! Is there a doctor or clinic in town.
shari - 1-8-2009 at 08:11 AM
Sharkey...thank you for your concern for the fishery....the limit is 10 fish per person with 5 of each species of tuna and YT, bonita etc. There were
4 guys on this boat so didnt near bring in their limit and we fed a big group of people with this fish plus smoked alot of it which we give away to
guests, friends and family...just cant seem to smoke enough fish. The bonita is given away as bait to the shore fishermen, lobster guys or
smoked...the heads and carcass gets used as lobster bait and the dogs and cats get left overs too. We also give fish to our builders, store owners,
police, family, friends etc...there is never enough fish to go around. If you fished here you would realize the few fish we take is a drop in the
bucket and there are very very few boats fishing here.
Ya know what was really cool....was seeing Drew's face with the fish...he had never caught a fish before...do you remeber the first fish you caught???
well... for such a serious guy...he was all smiles that day...I love that! It was not your normal fishing guy charter.
bajabass...we have a hospital AND a clinic here!

Thanks Shari. You know how I worry!
Good to see you don't just give it to your
fav restaurant. That just wouldn't be fair to the others.
Yes, the first fish I caught was with my pop on the rocks near Marineland. It was a giant opaleye. Still can smell those stinky guts!
