WEEK #2 MAG BAY UPDATE

AFTER A WEEKEND WHERE THE SOUTHERN BAJA RECEIVED IT'S FIRST SIGNIFICANT RAIN IN SEVERAL YEARS, OUR STALWART CREW IS BACK ON THE WATER. LAND BASED THIS WEEK, AND A LITTLE DIFFERENT. WE HAD THIS ONE WEEK WHERE CASA LANGOSTA WAS ALREADY BOOKED AND SO WE ARE USING ONE OF THE NEWER HOTELITOS IN TOWN, AND DINING AT JUAN CARLOS' RESTAURANT. FIRST FISHING DAY OF THE WEEK YIELDED OUR FIRST TUNA, THREE OF THEM IN THE 40-50LB. RANGE, ALL TAKEN ON ARCHER BARS. THIS WAS NO MEAN FEAT AS APPARENTLY THE OTHER BOATS TRYING TO TUNAFY SAW FISH BUT COULDN'T CATCH 'EM. YELLOWTAIL, AND A FEW DORADO ROUNDED OUT THE CATCH. A WORD OF THANKS TO FENWICK, OUR SWISS ARMY KNIFE OF A FRIEND WHO IS ALTERNATELY A NIGHT WATCHMAN, TRUSTED CONFIDANT, MECHANIC, AND MAN SERVANT. "FENNY" WAS INADVERTENTLY A VERY LARGE HELP IN GETTING THIS YEAR OFF THE GROUND, AND WAS REWARDED BY BEING MAROONED ON THE ISLAND FOR A DAY, WHICH HE REFERRED TO AS THE "HIGH POINT". I DIDN'T ASK HIM WHAT HE WAS DOING OUT THERE. FENWICK LEFT AN IMPRESSION ON MAG BAY, AND IT ON HIM. HE WILL BE MISSED, UNTIL 2012. MORE UPDATES MANANA,
