funny fish story
So Dave from San Quintin goes out fishing with Juan today...pretty hungover but happy with some hair of the dog. When they get back in Dave tell me
this great story. It goes like this...by 9:00 in the morning after catching his 5 yellowtail on the first 5 casts and releasing a bunch...they decide
to go jig for bass.
Dave caught the biggest calico bass he'd EVER seen....and he is a fisherman...this thing was humongous....on steroids or something. So Dave is taking
the hook out and Juan says "I think you should throw it back...it's way too small" jejeje.....SO HE DOES!!!!! Juan couldn't believe it.
He laughed his butt off when he told me and I just shook my head! They had a fantastic day.
Our amigos from Mulege who are visiting also had an incredible day...Beth found a gorgeous megaladon tooth hiking in the arroyo near san roque and our
kayak buds were stoked with all the fish they caught from their kayaks. They had these really neat peddle gismos so they have their hands free to reel
in fish...they can troll at 3 knots! They also caught tons of croaker and a nice corvina from shore at the surf beach after surfing!
they didn't want to know about the USA economy

Shari, thanks for the story. We need more and more like it to keep the fishery from going bye bye. Bravo to the young, smart, responsible guys who do
that kinda thing. Wish I had been like that when I was taking any and all I could get in my cooler.

Osprey...I like your attitude. In March of '07 I bartered with one of the local guys for 20 kilos of Jurel. (My 16 footer couldn't get to where they
were biting.) We carefully butchered them, lightly marinated and gently smoked the pieces and pressure canned three dozen little half pints.
Last night I opened the last one; made chip dip with part of it, and added smokey flavor to the Red Snapper Veracruzana with the rest.
That's what I call stretching the resources! I really hated to see that last bottle go.
