Friend just got back, had some 500 fish for 3 days, nothing over 6 though. Picachos.
OK, he's a beginner, whom I've been tutoring for two years (getting folks stuck on D/S to try something diff.), and was super happy he went. Some folks gave him heck.
What say you?
(I've been three times, had a blast each time (El Salto and Baccarac). Not big numbers, but nice size fish- + some top, which I live for), Can't wait to go back.

Yes, cartels. I don't care how safe anyone says it is but the cartels are getting worse. Good friend is an ICE and he gets a lot of Intel on what is happening. Got plenty of great places to fish here.

Long distance to travel. Costs a lot to get there and stay safely. Country with major law enforcement problems and lots of cartel activity. Bigger and better fishing right here in Texas. I can drink the water here.

I make about 3 trips per year to Cancun, 2 hour flight from DFW and some outstanding all inclusive hotels and deals in the world.
I would have no issue taking a flight to fish in Mexico

why would anyone support the country that is bussing illegals up to our border so they can come here?
no way would I set foot much less spend money in that chithole of a country again.

My extra fishing money went towards a new motor. Maybe next year.

I can get on a plane at DFW and be in Cancun in 2 hours. They never closed the country or required a vaccine to enter The beaches are outstanding, I love their adventure parks, and swimming in the cenotes south of Cancun Plus you can stay in 5 star all inclusive hotel and pay 2 star prices What is there not to love?
