DISCUSSIONS – ANSWERS – ANNOUNCEMENTS

a.  Poisoning:  I just saw your post about the poisoning. We have done so much to try and prevent this but it’s not working.  The only thing people can do is report it to the police. The more reports they have the more empowered they are to take action. Cortez Rescue is now part of a wider anti-cruelty initiative in La Paz County headed up by a designated Commandante in La Paz. But we need people to report incidents or any witnesses to come forward – otherwise we are helpless.
Several months ago we had a meeting of the police, vets and Mayor which is why we put the posters up around town. We now need to take this to the next level – let’s protect all of our pets by clubbing together. Please go to the police at the Delegacion if you know anything.
Thank you.
Emma. Re-Homing Manager, Cortez Rescue & Outreach

b.  With the most prize money ever, more than $657,125 was earned by 11 teams in a field of 62 boats with 360 competitors during the three day Bisbee tournament last week culminating with a spectacular fireworks display over the podium Saturday night on the beachfront at Hotel Buenavista. In a very unusual showing, five of the six billfish brought to scale were Black Marlin, in large contrast to the East Cape’s more typical blue marlin. Black marlin are considered the strongest, fastest and hardest fighting billfish in the world. The winning black marlins weighed 538 pounds, 493 pounds and 393 pounds paying out more than $450,000 to the top three winning marlin teams. Team Awesome of Baja’s Awesome Sportfishing fished hard in the tuna gamefish category winning day three with a 78.1 pound yellowfin, also taking second place on days one and two with 90.1 and 78.5 pound tunas. Last year Team Awesome won day two in the tuna category and holds the East Cape Bisbee Yellowfin record with a 262 pound behemoth caught in 2012. With tournament founder Bob Bisbee’s passing just two months ago, Team Awesome’s 2018 motto was ‘May Bob Bisbee’s spirit touch our fish and honor his legacy’. They hope they made this fishing pioneer proud.
