Denis Ruso. There are some good guides to the fish of the sea of Cortez out there. On line guides too. The variety in that area can be incredible. And that's on hook and line. If you're in the water you'll see many more. You might even get a chance to dive with whale sharks. And definitely bring a light wet suit cause if you're wrestling Cabrilla n grouper out if the rocks your going to get cut. You can protect your suit by wearing mechanic style 'over all' over our suit. They even come in camo. Mike

Thanks for the tips Mike.

Still deciding if I want to get a reel and float for my gun. I may just bring my free diving gear and swim around, maybe bring my go pro. I'm thinking I will hopefully catch enough fish staying dry.

Bucket list item for me - swim with a whale shark.

I had plans on going for the Thanksgiving break, but a broke tibula in my right leg this past Sunday. I have a Dr. appointment with a specialist on Friday to see if I will need surgery or just a cast. It all depends on how I recover in these next few days...I just might make it out there for some RR.

The more I read the worst I feel...I will miss you guys this year!!! There is always next year and spring time!!!

makobob · 11-17-2016, 12:59 PM

DO NOT LIMIT yourself Frank, ASK your doctor what he thinks your limits should be and use those. If he says you can walk 50 yds, START there and increase as YOU feel stronger. Paddling should not be a problem so please do not make it one. Fast healing and hope to see you soon.

Come on down Frank, we can always use a spotter. Put you up on the roof with a pair of binoculars and a VHF radio. You can spot birds and boils for us
