you or I will not stop the Mexicanos from supporting their families in any way they can.
Until the Mexican people decides to implement laws RE: nets & wanton slaughter of "their" fish stocks, it will go on whether we like it or not.
I commercially fished for striped bass in the N/E to supplement my income as a NYC Firefighter. If the state of Mass had not institued a cut back and
a good management plan (with strict enforcement) I would have casted at the last striped bass on earth.."If not me, the other guy will". Part of the
problem.
Today? I fish for enough to eat, maybe some extra for the pensioneros in town, but I have enough income to afford that luxury....
Again, there will be no easy answer to this. Baby boomers? I do not dread them, I welcome them. I was never, nor am I now, a "Gotminer". All those
that have worked towards their dream, whatever that is, deserve to pursue it.
Rock on roosterfish!

Empty nets and empty gas tanks=empty wallets. The gill netters will pretty much
do away with themselves. But first they'll just about wipe out the fish. This process took place in the coastal waters of the Northern Gulf of Mexico
during the '70s. The govt. finally came down hard and the fisheries are recovering. There's more emphasis on sports and recreational fishing.

This little bay, Palmas Bay is advertised as the "Roosterfish Capital of the World" and for good reason. Flyfishers flock here because they are so
thick at times along our shores. Gillnetting is an ongoing problem we face now and then with varying results but they plan to build a marina here and
that will change the environment in the whole 20 mile stretch of beach in the bay. I'm a one-man alert/watchdog group here to ring some bells before
they start the hotel/marina/home lot sales project right in front of my house sometime in July. I'm afraid they will build 1/2 a marina, part of a
hotel, leave the place like Nopalo, minus lots of roosters.

RiiseterFish are Great eating, prepared by taking out the "Black Strip", cooking with Garlic!
Oh! so many years ago off of Punta Colorado, brought in 3 55Lb. beauties and had them for Supper at Rancho Bueno Vista at a Family Table with Ray
Cannon setting at the Head of the Table.
I would much rather see some of Save the RoosterFish Effort going to save our Children from the Drugs in the States!!!

I ALWAYS release my Roosters. Great fighting fish, but always heard they were not too good to eat.

The Rooster is a prize, to catch and release...not to keep and eat. They are the best fighter's in the surf.
Here in Southern Baja, at first light, there is nothing better to get your day started by hooking a rooster and landing him. After I say good morning
to Sr. Rooster, I give him a big "abrazo" thank him for the introduction and send him home. Hopefully, we will meet again!!!!!!!!
