Sad indeed. Those men who fish out there do it for food...not for fun.
-------------------------------------------------

"A man drowned after falling into the sea in the area of the field number 5 of The Bufadora, while trying to get mussels.


The facts according to the first official data were recorded at around 15:00 pm when a man reported that just before his companion named Misael Palacios Magallán 39-year-old had fallen into the sea washed away by a wave while trying to get mussels.



After reports a search and rescue operation which involved civil and military authorities resulted, around 16:00 hours on the location of the corpse that had become entangled in the kelp is active.



The body was recovered after being taken to the Forensic Medical Service for the autopsy."

For those who come from the US, and don't know the ocean well (including me!), take these incidents seriously. I frequently read of fisherman getting lost at sea. A SPOT or satellite phone can help with this.

Point well taken. Just recently, this same area claimed a neighbor who could have afforded a SPOT device, but this latest victim couldn't. He probably had to walk ten miles just to fish for dinner.

Indeed, in my experience many Mex Nationals do not swim,
not that this would have helped this victim, even Panga
drivers MAY not swim, during Santa Semana many Mexicans
flock to the ocean, many never having been in waves,
rips, etc. Yrs. back camping no. of Barra de Navidad on the
mainland helped fish a body out of some narly 8' surf, having been around the ocean my entire life, I would have never
ventured into that water

On some occasions you can determine this from a distance since they'll jump right in wearing all their clothes.
