I would have no problem going over there by myself you will be fine.

Don't bring a gun. It's a bad feeling to be 6 miles into Mexican waters with the trolling motor down when you realize you've forgotten to remove it.

Don't get out of your boat and step on Mexican soil for any reason. I don't know how our Boarder Patrol agents know you did but they do! They have a real stern questioning process they take you through at the ramp. ( just saying you had to do #2 wasn't the answer they were looking for)

I don't see how a second person would save you from any of the HIGHLY UNLIKELY bad things that could happen to you over there

....Dang you guys are all over the board on this Falcon thing.....
I have been there a lot in the past 5 years; here's the deal:
1.) it doesn't matter if you are fishing alone or in a big group, if "they" want to stop and board you they will. Our group had it happen Dec 5th 2015. a boat full of armed men stop one of boats (with 3 men aboard)in a cove on the Mexican side up the Salanias. Black clothing didn't talk in English and they asked for their fishing license, once they see "a" fishing license, back on their boat they go and sped off. No search, but their guns were lowered and aimed. We assumed them to be Federales, but who knows. The thing is the boat was on the Mexican side "NEAR DARK".....wrong move.
other than this one time in 5 years I do not know of any other "incident" involving actual fishermen on Falcon.
BUT----
2.) why even go to the Mexican side if the fishing is as good or better on the US side. we have caught just as many and just as big on this side as the other side. Now having said that, it sure is fun to go over there in get tangled in those nets and have to cut them loose. Then you ARE LOOKING OVER YOUR SHOULDER, for the owner of those nets that will give you what for
3.) stop in at Falcon Lake Tackle and ask James for the info. Whether you know him or not, he will tell you--- if they are biting and where they are biting and what to throw. He certainly will not give a GPS co-ordinate but he will give you a cove or creek name.

Finally; just don't do anything stupid,,,,,,,
don't get out of your boat onto Mexican soil, don't run from a Mexican Police boat, don't "joke" with the Border Patrol or Game Wardens.
be sure to have both fishing licenses, US & Mexican, just in case you are across the international line out in open water or you do go into the Mexican Rivers & Coves, have yuour life jackets & most of all,,,,, DO NOT CARRY A GUN. AND don't be on the Mexican side or US side for that matter,,,, near dark thirty. DARK invites the bad guys out.......stay in the light.

GREAT place to fish & can be done so without any headaches if you just do it right.

One year I fished the Salanias on Christmas day. I was back there by myself for several hours and never saw another boat. I won't lie, it did trip me out a little.

I would have no problem going over there by myself you will be fine.

anybody notice that you rarely see commercial fishermen on Sunday....
