WELL, I DOUBT THAT THIS POOR YEAR WILL BE EITHER, BUT I'VE ALWAYS LIKED THE PHRASE. 2012 DOES PRESENT SOME CONTINUING PROBLEMS AND SOME OPPORTUNITIES AS WELL. WE WILL BE DOING MAG BAY THIS YEAR, AGAIN. OUR PLANS ARE TO LENGTHEN THE SEASON THERE, PROBABLY STARTING IN MID AUGUST AND GOING RIGHT UP NEXT TO XMAS. LIVING ON THE ISLAND WORKED WELL THIS YEAR, AND SO WE'RE GONNA DO THAT AGAIN. WE'RE HUNTING FOR BOAT(S) TO USE FOR THAT NOW. WE'D ALSO LIKE TO HAVE THE USE OF LARGER BOAT(S) TO USE FROM LA PAZ THE REST OF THE YEAR, AND OUR PLENIPOTENTIARIES ARE COMBING THE U.S. RIGHT NOW, ZEROING IN ON THE RIGHT BOAT(S), AT THE RIGHT PRICE. STAY TUNED HERE FOR UPDATES ON THIS FRONT. WE'RE TRYING TO DECIDE WHETHER TO DO THE LA PAZ CLASSICO THIS YEAR, AND WHEN. LAST YEARS HAD SOME PROBLEMS WHICH LEFT A SOUR TASTE IN MY MOUTH, AND I SWORE TO MYSELF THAT I WASN'T GONNA DO IT, BUT.........
ON THE FISHING FRONT WE ALREADY HAVE SOME SOLID 2012 FISHING. YELLOWTAIL HAVE BEEN BITING CONSISTENTLY AT PUNTA PERICO AND SOUTH OF MUERTOS ALONG THE CLIFFS. THESE FISH HAVE BEEN OF GOOD QUALITY, WITH THE SMALL ONES IN THE UPPER TEENS, BUT MORE OF THEM IN THE UPPER 20'S AND A GOOD NUMBER UP TO 40 POUNDS. ALONG WITH THE JUREL HAVE BEEN SOME CABILLA, AND EVEN SOME LARGE PARGO LISAS CAUGHT ON MACKEREL. SO THE FISHING YEAR IS OFF AN RUNNING, WERE STILL FIGURING OUT SOME DETAILS, BUT IT WOULD SERVE WELL TO START PICKING OUT YOUR FAVORITE TIMES OF THE YEAR AND PUT A CLAIM ON THEM. HAPPY NEW YEAR, GO 9ERS.
