Yellowtail Machaca
This photo was taken outside of Puerto Ecsondido back in the 80's. Shortly after this trip I lost my Nikon FM to salt water and basically took no more
photos for 10 years.
Ice was a total pain to deal with so the fish we caught were always made into machaca, excepting cabrilla, which we ate that day. Hence the
disregard for the fish condition after catching.
We would hang the filets wrapped in cheesecloth out on the barb wire fences to dry. It was good, but of course, machaca de manta raya was the best.
I miss those little machaca tacos in handmade flour tortillas stored in aluminium.
One thing, I could never get those darn manta rayas to bite the iron so we only ate the best when local fisherman were kind enough to share. They were
the real men in those parts.
�And it never failed that during the dry years the people forgot about the rich years, and during the wet years they lost all memory of the dry
years. It was always that way.�― John Steinbeck

thanks for all
Thanks for the yellowtails tips and all the other stuff. Pompano, did you get those big yellows you were looking for? When I go in feb it sounds
like there might be some surface trolling/casting and also deeper fishing. I'll be prepared (it's the freekin' boy scout motto!!)
