Does anyone in Los Barriles have a walker
that they could lend to Eldon for a few

scheduled for Jan. 12th!
Let me know if you have a walker. Marilyn

gift, we can put you on the Sea of Cortez
and put you on fish. If your fishermen are
ready to deepen their experience and build
relationships with highly capable and
qualified Captains while enjoying fishing
without the hassles, concerns and worry of
launching, pulling, fueling, cleaning, we’re
ready to help you ‘Get on it’! The Ultimate
Christmas Gift includes ten days of
discounted fishing, plus an 11th day free.
Consider the ‘Awesome Full Charter Service’

savings; or, choose our new ‘Awesome Captain
Only Charter’ which allows qualified,
experienced fishermen to manage the deck and
