wilderone, Thanks for the information. The fishing pressure, mostly commercial,
is turning the Sea of Cortez into a "dead zone". Yea, anybody can catch 'pelagics" on any given "perfect" day, but the fact is, the adult grouper and
pargo are just about gone, except in the protected areas. These are resident fish, not pelagic. They're confined to "fish zoos". Not good.

The video of the marlin on the Golden Gate Bank is truly amazing.

I would like to believe that Sea Watch is going to prove itself to be different than the other whacko environmental orginizations because it would
sure be nice to see something start to happen in the Sea of Cortez. The jury is still out on this particular orginization and only time will tell if
they have reasonable goals and outcomes which make them worthy of support or if they go the way of Greenpeace and Earth First. I am hoping that Mike
McGettigan turns out to be someone with integrity, honesty, and not so far left that he is unable to see things in a reasonable, intelligent and
perceptive manner. The Billfish Foundation has proven that it is possible to get things done in Mexico without resorting to flaming, civil
disobedience, and other lib protest methods that usually do more harm than good. So far, things for Sea Watch are looking pretty good with the
videos, reporting of illegal fishing in the La Paz area, so hopefully there is some potential here.
