No doubt you put 300 or so fisherman on falcon
they are gonna stick some fish, but I�ve gone out after
big tournaments and have still done really good. My customer
today canceled due to the flu so I was out solo again looking
around and had some good ones. This cooler water temp
isn't shutting them down that much. 8.40 big one for today.

Jimmy , have you heard anything about incidents in Salinias.

I�ve heard of some people being checked to see
If they had anything in their boat that wasn�t supposed
to be there, witnessed one boat kinda being singled out,but not
approached, while the rest of the boats in the area were left alone,
don�t know what was up with that but my customers were a bit uneasy
so we left. I have not heard of anyone being detained and I have
never been approached by anyone personally. I always carry some
cash on me and hope that if I did have anything come up, a franklin
could get me out of it.

Thanks for the info Jimmy.

.... Bass Champs 1 day tournament has NEVER affected the fishing on Falcon ......
In fact you will have better fishing by listening to or reading reports about the type of baits the fish are keying on and whether the BIG ones are still deep or have moved to the bank.
AND if you believe or don't like the reports about the Salinias or Coyote .... don't go over there. There are plenty of places on the American side to fish Falcon. Just because you go to Falcon does not mean you have to buy a Mexican fl and go over there. I can fish Falcon for a week w/o having to go to the Mexico side....... even the days right after Bass Champs.

You can always tell exactly how much a bass weighs!
They all have scales on them!
Oh, different kind of scales.

Other than what I have reported, I have not heard of anything, and only rumors in the Coyotes.. Nothing heard from my buddies fishing there.

Fish yesterday were a bit deeper, in the eight foot range. Some folks caught fish on traps and Red Eyes on flats.. Some good numbers.. Afternoon bite has been best. Last night was the warmest night we have had, only got down to 65.. Today should see some warmer water.. But still no sun today..

There was some funny business in the Salanias but it was taken care of. Nothing bad either. Haven't heard anything about Coyote.

. Care to elaborate? Thanks

You can read about it in James' report. But from what I gather, there was a Mexican fishing boat in the Salanias that was harassing boaters. They sent someone to check the boat out and they said he was just a "monitor". I'm not sure what that exactly means in their terms. I don't care if he's a monitor or not, if you see something fishy, crank up and leave.

With that being said, I've never ever had a single problem anywhere on that lake. I would take all of the "here-say" with a grain of salt. The only person I think that you should believe, is James. He knows what goes on down there.

This am in heavy fog I was Trying to get back in Salinas and was graphing a point on the way in. A Mexican came by whistled and waved at me to follow him. He lead me back to almost where I needed To go and waved me off to the left when he had to go right.

He probably figured I was Almost running Into land.

I�m not worried in the least back there.

We supply them with fish mostly 4 to 8 pounders so they treat us properly.

Boy Jeff that sounds like a great idea.

MY 2 cent, haven't heard anything. one of my customers would of said something. I do recommend if its your first time to falcon, you fish the mexican side with a guide.
