ohhh. I couldn't disagree more. Fresh shrimp, no marinade, straight on a searing hot grill and cooked just enough so they burst open when you eat
em. Thats good stuff. Now. Add some marinade and a little guac, a little heat, a dash of lemon, wrap it up and try not to drool.

So.....this thread has morphed from the interpretation of the activities of fishing boats to recipe comparisons.
You cooks should be so proud.

I think SF probably has quite a few more than here and I hope they are dragging a huge area. Here they drag in front of the Bahia Concepcion, a
relatively small area.
The 2 boats that didn't leave have still not gone out and it's dark. They usually leave before dark. And it's calm tonight.

That is really a travesty! Bahia Concepcion was just starting to come back after being totally fished out years ago. Pendejos! 
If one accidently gets blown up, they make good fish reefs, though.

So what is stopping the government from closing off Bahia Concepcion to commercial fishing including scallops/ clams?
They did it for Loreto...

I love shrimp
Overfishing is the real issue. Restrictions are now being played out at certain spots in the world, kalifornia particular....and the fish are making a
come back in numbers.
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.

Restrictions have brought the fisheries in the northern Gulf of Mexico back from the brink. Other than the pelagics, the Sea of Cortez has already
been depleted. Unless drastic steps are taken, there's no chance of recovery.

I believe there are regulations already on the books that would lighten the destruction of the fisheries but there is no enforcement of regulations.
In this area anyway. It's not just the big boats there are hundreds if not thousands of pangas here and if the calimari fishery doesn't support them
then they fish or use nets to reap what they can to survive.

I am assuming that all or most of this shrimp is consumed in Mexico. The shrimp that I buy at Luckys and Vons is farm raised or imported from Thailand
or Viet Nam.

Alfonsina's buys their shrimp right from the boats that anchor in Gonzaga Bay... Doesn't get much fresher than that!
Here Roy 'TheSquareCircle' digs into his Garlic Shrimp dinner at Alfonsina,s (Nov., 2006).

Those weren't mine... I totally boycott the senseless murder of little shrimp and the raping of the ocean floor to line the pockets of capitalist
pigs!!!

After a great day of fishing the Islas Encantadas, on the way home an off shore wind kicked up like crazy... the shrimper that was near by sung over,
got us on his boat, hooked on to the panga and whipped up a batch of agua chile served with coffee cups full of tequila! Great guys, great food!
PS Mcfez and David K thanks for the photos, a nice shrimp omelet sounds good right about now....
Also, you can also by Mexican shrimp from cisco...

Ah agua chile....my favorite shrimp dish...no cooking required, just really fresh shrimp.
I also like shrimp ceviche, again no cooking.
Most people overcook them anyway.
