Last time I was in Bahia Gonzaga there were a couple sport fishermen who showed me photos of the totoaba they caught near Punta Final. This was in
2007 or so, a long time ago. Are people still fishing for totoaba? I thought it was against the law to do so, though I must be wrong or have laws
changed?willardguy - 5-29-2016 at 10:11 PM

Are the bladders of WSB as good as totoaba????ehall - 5-30-2016 at 05:00 AM
Good for what? I hope you don't buy in to that mumbo jumbo from the orient.willardguy - 5-30-2016 at 09:37 AM
good question! I've got a friend in oxnard (that im sure some of you know) that fishes white sea bass commercially, I asked him the same question. at
that time anyway he wasn't aware of the whole swim bladder/totoaba affair.
sure sounds to me like if the bladders were similar alot of folks could be making some serious coin LEGALLY selling WSB bladders. woody with a view - 5-30-2016 at 10:37 AM
Totuaba bladders have strings coming off of them. They are the indicator of an actual totuaba bladder.woody with a view - 5-30-2016 at 11:02 AM

Endangered fish bladders are better tasting when you sprinkle ground rhino horn and use ivory utensils. :
What in the f--k are people thinking sometimes, consuming and using something that going the way of the Dodo bird?BAJA.DESERT.RAT - 5-30-2016 at 07:07 PM
it really is a shame that totoaba are still being fished for and only their bladders. it's about time the mexican navy is patrolling for poachers and
sea shepherd is also in the battle.
