That just about sums up our trip to the VanWormer Resorts and Hotel Palmas De Cortez. A group of 5 of us just came back from a 4 night stay Sunday night from Hotel Palmas De Cortez and had the time of our lives.
Just a few short hours from LAX and we were in paradise with a cold drink in our hands looking out at a flat calm Sea of Cortez with temperatures near 80 degrees, and talking about what our fishing day may bring to us the next day. The excitement built even more as we were on our patio watching quite a show of fish boiling just a few yards off the beach.
A nice relaxing day but day two was a bit different. We headed down to our boat not knowing what the day would bring. Things started out pretty bleak but the day was still awesome with whales, dolphin, manta rays, and more jumping out of the water. Then we spotted a marlin jumping off our bow. The Captain gunned the engines to get in front of it, tossed a bait and Elissa Mak was hooked up for her first marlin and the ride of her life. Not something she or I will forget for the rest of our lives.
After Elissa decked her fish it wasn't long before we had another hook up. It was little Amei Friedman's turn in the chair. By the way, her first time fishing and weighing in at just 95 pounds. Not only was it a hook up but a double hook up. So Amei and myself did the old marlin shuffle for about 20 minutes till both of us brought our first ever to the boat. The fish weighed in at 130 to 150 pounds and what a rush it was for someone who has never done anything like this before. We headed back to the dock early so we could enjoy the rest of the day relaxing around the pool.
For our second day of fishing we were tired and sore from the day before so we asked our captain to just look around for dorado and sierra. We had no luck as it was a slow day for the fleet on the dorado but there were plenty of marlin flags a flying.
Palmas de Cortez is a great place to be and you know its home of Fiesta de 976-TUNA in May. We had a great time and it was even better being there with some good friends. Bring the wife or girlfriend even if she doesn't fish as there is plenty for them to do when the guys are out fishing.
It's more than just a fishing trip. Snorkeling, spa, relaxing, ATV, zip lines, great food in town, and so much more.
Good times - Good friends - Good fishing

Legend Summer/Fall Limited Load Multi Day Schedule
The Sea Shepherd Conservation Society today issued a news release claiming its two remaining ships in the Antarctic campaign against Japanese whaling are in pursuit of the fleeing factory vessel Nisshin Maru, and essentially shutting down Japan's effort.
"As the Steve Irwin passed by the Nisshin Maru, the factory ship turned on their water cannons and were surprised when the Steve Irwin responded with a more powerful water cannon that had a couple of the whalers diving for the bridge doors as the frigid water struck their bridge wing deck," Sea Shepherd stated.
976-TUNA Ensenada Orphanage Fishing Trip By Philip Friedman CONTRIBUTOR to www.BajaTimes.Com
Even though the air temperature had soared to more than 112 degrees in Baja's Guadalupe Valley some 20 miles from Ensenada, the girls from Door of Faith Orphanage kept the windows sealed tight. The 17 girls, crammed into one room, preferred the sweltering, suffocating heat in their upstairs room to the dust that would blow through an open window.
The 976-TUNA Youth Fishing Program is reaching across the border again this year to take kids out for a day of fishing fun and playing on the beach at the Rosarito Beach Hotel. On April 10th, over 100 kids from nearby orphanages will arrive at the hotel and be treated to a day of fishing, building sand castles, a BBQ, and just enjoying the beach. It's a dream come true for these wonderful children and it is a great opportunity for you to lend a helping hand.

San Pedro rescue center treats more sick pelicans - The Daily Breeze
Rescuers are running out of room to help hundreds of emaciated and sick California brown pelicans along the West Coast. At least 250 brown pelicans were treated over the past month at the International Bird Rescue Research Center in San Pedro, where the sickly birds are kept warm by heaters and feast on a bountiful high-protein fish diet.
"When we have enough resources to do so, these pelicans respond to good food, clean water and warmth," said Paul Kelway, regional program manager for the San Pedro center. "This is a new phenomenon we're seeing. We're trying the best we can to respond to this."
Humboldt squid have moved into Southern California waters in mass. The local news has been all over the story as the Cephalopod express marches north. Squid of more than 60 pounds are being taken by most Southern California landings as interest has peaked.
Marine biologists from the Long Beach Aquarium contacted Don Ashley of Pierpoint Landing and planned on being aboard the Enterprise out of Long Beach Marina Sportfishing Thursday night.
