We used to own the house next to "Cerveza Villa". We camped at those camp spots for years before we decided to build a house in the late 1970's. Boy, do I have some great memories and stories from that "former campground".

We have a beige and brown Bronco for the beach. It will be the one with the 5 year old driving...


Well this may be an incredible coincedence because Roy and Mary owned the house (recently sold) one to the north of "Cerveza Villa" and I own the one right next door one south of "Cerveza Villa" which I purchased from Al and Roberta about 17 years ago. Are you their son/son inlaw? Or the seller to them?

You need to stop by in any case!




Haven't had a bad trip yet....

Looks like the Bahia Santa Maria/ Nuevo Mazatlan region is the new 'Nomadlandia' of the Gulf Coast of Baja?

The guy who started the post lives just south of me plus as I just found out he was the original owner of my casa therefore a hijack was in order.


:lol:

Edit for: There have been large bait balls in front of the houses in fact everywhere for that matter in our area so the Corvina may not be too hungry until the bait moves out. (Obligitory Corvina discussion)

Is it plain stupid to think this....


Okay....today I was talking to an old timer at the Sacramento Broadway bait store.....he said to use "corn" for good Corvina fishing. Any heads up on this...or did I just make myself look foolish?



Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

A lot of different fish are called Corvina around the world. Around Baja, it usually the corbina!:light:;)

This old timer didn't happen to be at Broadway Bait and Tackle? Over the years I have had some mixed results shopping there. One time I was told I should string my Okuma rolling reel with 80# because was to be fishing the Gonzaga Bay area. The guy told me "the Yellowfin can get pretty big down there"...lol I'm not sure he understood that there are fish north of the East Cape. They do have a good selection of tackle though.

corbina are what mexicans catch, corvina are what gringos catch, or maybe it's the other way around.

Again, really???


A Corvina has the forward mouth, with teeth, hit lures on the surface...

A Corbina has the bottom facing mouth, with the barb, takes bait on the bottom... found in the Pacific and upper Sea of Cortez, sandy beaches... very close to shore in the breakers on the Pacific.

Photo of a Corbina... looks nothing like a Corvina, but is similar to the croaker (which also has the bottom mouth, barb, but yellow fins or a dark spot on the side fins :yellowfin croaker, spotfin croaker)

Does anyone know the difference between a flounder and a halibut? Can you catch either one in October? Do they both do that eye mutation thing?:smug:
