Tip&Trick Description 1:
Here’s a fishing story.
Four married guys go fishing. After an hour, the following conversation
took place:
First guy:
’You have no idea what I had to do to be able to come out fishing this
weekend. I had to promise my wife that I will paint every room in the
house next weekend.’
Second guy:
’That is nothing, I had to promise my wiife that I will build her a new
deck for the pool.’
Third guy:
’Man, you both have it easy! I had to promise my wife that I will
remodel the kitchen for her.’
They continue to fish when they realized that the fourth guy has not
said a word. So they asked him.!
’You haven’t said anything about what you had to do to be able to come
fishing this weekend. What’s the deal?’
Fourth guy:
’I just set my alarm for 5:30 am. When it went off, I shut off my alarm,
gave the wife a nudge and said, ’Fishing or Sex’ and she said, ’Wear a
sweater.’

ZIHUATANEJO, MAINLAND MEXICO
IN GENERAL: The 80º blue water still remains very close, and the fishing remains decent, but there are virtually no fishermen here charting any boats. I do not think we have over two or three charters a day going out.
The few boats that do go however are averaging two to three sailfish a day. The inshore action is still holding up with excellent roosterfish and jack crevalle action.
I was at the municipal pier yesterday, talking to a bunch of the captains who were just standing around and hoping for a someone to contact them for a charter. With so few people fishing, I needed more information for my fish report. Santiago, on the panga “Gitana,” was giving directions to an American couple where to get their tickets for the panga taxi ride to Las Gatas Beach. He then turned to me and said, 'Well, I guess you are not the only American in town, but they're not fishing.' I didn't get any more information either.
