Good one, Jim! 
You gave me visions of you releasing an "undersized" 30 lb. YT for something bigger.
Does anyone ever fish an area we used to call the Rancho? It was a wide, high area just off Muertos, north of the actual Punta Chivato and south of
Roca Lobos. Believe it was about 200 feet deep or so.

Yes many of the locals go there still. They are the older yellowtail experts.

Hook, actually there are three distinct spots within about 1 mile of each other that are related to the Rancho. They still produce well when the fish
are relating to that particular area. When we find fish moving in on the Rancho, we know that the following day or the day after, they will be moved
into the north of San Marcos. Interesting note is that the fish that are normally caught on the Rancho during the winter months have a distinct
headshake that seems to only come from those particular fish so we have a pretty good idea when they migrate from the south to the north side of San
Marcos.

Okay, Wesson, the Spotted Bay Bass is one of the inshore basses that occur to probably about Conception Bay. They are prolific little guys that get
so overpopulated that they can get stunted in certain areas. They range from 15 ft of water to around 110 ft. and can readily be taken with plugs or
bait. In our area where they preclean the squid as they are coming in, there is an enormous amount of food in the water and I have consistently
caught a large number of fish from 4-6 pounds which add up the number of fish fillets very quickly. Most are a pound or less in normal situations.
They are different than the extranjero or Gold Spotted Bass which range in much deeper water and get a lot larger. The natives refer to them as Chano
or in the smaller version Chanito. Gene Kira has good pictures and information on the two basses at http://www.mexfish.com

Mulege Fishing
At this time last year my buddy and I landed as many Dorado as we wished in two days. We only kept a few. Ask around for Victor.
