well seems like my older daughter (16yo) was having a really good time fishing a lot more than daddy
first fishing trip for 2016, with a good friend and my older daugher on the north of sea of cortez
not a lot of fish and not as big as we wished but plenty of fun and good memories from this trip
father and daugher going to the Enchanted Islands of Gonzaga Bay, Baja

Looks like you had a lot of fun. What you didn't get in size you made up with variety!

Great start to the New Year!
I hope my lil'girl likes to fish in another 10yrs.
Way to go Dad.
Terrific, take the kids fishing. It always makes them happy. Dominick
good stuff!
Buen hombre, That's what its all about. ;)
Thanks for sharing Alex.
Sal
thanks for the words guys, those were and will be good memories.
It looks like the wind stopped for you to get out. It has been blowing like crazy south of you but as you know that is normal for this time of year.
Good looking Pinto bass and Cabrilla, and throw in some firecracker yellows will make fishing with your daughter even more special. WTG
yep, on last friday we saw a nice weather on sunday and we organized a quick trip to the Islands, next day and as of today the wind have been blowing badly, this week we will have some hard rain days for EL NINO climate on Baja and South California, US.
Yes, doing it just right! Love the pictures, there's something about Mexico that seems to call to all of us dedicated fish chasers.
Nice catch also, lots of good fish tacos there.
