Went to Mexico for 10 days to get married.  First day in caught a stingray from shore.  Got stung.  It hurt.  Ate stingray tacos that night. 

Also caught some pretty little fishies from shore - best fun was a 19" trigger that took a few long runs.

Happy to be back!

Congrats on the wedding and sorry about the sting.

Sayulita, Nayarit.   Locals called the hawkfish a "Maranguana", pronounced a lot like marijuana...

I started kayak fishing to get away from most of you...

My thoughts exactly...  Revenge served hot and spicy on a tortilla!

Hey Paul
Your wife probably thought the sting was poetic justice for going fishing on your honeymoon. :smt003

In the game of biggest fish, if you can't enjoy routinely gettin' your ass handed to you, by great fishermen, then you don't belong in the NCKA.
