Carinval in Guaymas

Guaymenses and thousands of visitors from around the state attending the parade of floats, Sunday, Monday and Tueday.
Thousands of people gathered in from 15:00 hours to enjoy the most emblematic tradition of the carnival, the parade of floats and troupes.
The contingent left the Sanchez Taboada Boulevard, past the tourist jetty and turn on Avenida Serdan.
About 13 floats and seven more troupes were paraded by cheering spectators.
Yesterday, the contingent was led by Grand Marshal Joseph Evans Albáñe and his daughter Mrs. Evans. Also attended the Kings in 2009 led by Oscar Martinez Velderrain and Alheli.
His Majesty Karla I, Queen of the Carnaval de Guaymas 2010, greeted by the hand of Jesus Ugly King Albert I, and thousands of guaymenses who gathered at the parade.
The parade included the participation of troupes to wild Brazilian dancers.
A Bahia Delfin neighbor danced on a float having met a local at the disco in San Carlos. Ryan fell in love and has spent 3 weeks solid with her family. They love him and invited him to dance on their float. He doesn't speak a lick of spanish.
Having the time of his life. Very sore from dancing. His uncle from Calgary is Jim who we have fished with many times with Bryan.

Corvina or Pargo! San Carlos 2010

The beginning of the week was slow and rainy, but the last few days have been awesome! The yellowtail are coming up at first light a few miles out and are chasing bait up to the surface over a large area. They are easy to catch trolling. We lost one large one yesterday and landed a 20 pound fish the day before off of the sea mounts. There are still a few large fish hanging around there throughout the day. The fish farther out are 6-9 pounds. They go down around 9:00am or earlier, though a few will continue to surface. We have tried bottom fishing a reef in this area and have caught some nice fish - a lot of small to large golden spotted sea bass, a 12 pound white sea bass, a couple 8-10 pound grouper, other bottom fish, and one 16 pound red grouper. Lots of fish to eat!

A few days ago I caught some nice pargo and a couple 11 pound corvina with a friend from shore. The water is warm. There was a patch that read 72 degrees just 16 miles out today on Terrafin.com. There are still skipjack out there, and we caught some large ones. A striped marlin could show up any day, or some small dorado, and you never know when the tuna will arrive. They are still catching all the warm water species off of Cabo in water up to 78 degrees. The summer fishing could be just a month away!
