Mexico - Punta Allen
Punta Allen, situated in the beautiful Sian Kaan reserve, was to be our home for two weeks. We stayed at Club Grand Slam, operated and owned by our good friend Capt Greg Rahe and his wife Lupida.
What better way to start the morning, than with a delicious traditional Mexican breakfast (prepared by expert chef Lupida) hot and spicy! Bertus face speaks for itself.
The fishing potential of Ascension Bay is well known. But, you still have to earn your success, which requires a lot of looking
Bonefish is always on the menu and plentiful
but weve been spoiled with bonefish so we get bored easily
next stop the Back Country!
The deeper you go, the better the fishing
But you need a GPS
the Mayan kind
The silver king
lord of the Back Country
and some more
closer view
This be hurricane country
note the palm tree washed up on the beach, but wasting no time to take root
life is short
What else is Mexico famous for, besides good food & drink, friendly people, beautiful scenery and arguably the best damn backcountry fishing in the world? Mayan ruins of course
!
If you saw this altar back then, you were pretty much fucked
human sacrifice!
The king sure had a nice view from his castle
If only us saltwater fly-fishermen have caught onto this
a wind temple to beg the wind god for his gentle ocean breezes
The bathhouse
for the beautiful Mayan maidens perhaps?
But I digress
back to the action
The bulldogs of Ascension Bay
Jack Crevalle
You think Jacks like crabs?
Plenty of rats and mice in the sea
including
Rainbow runners
you think they like crabs? All the fish in Mexico likes crabs. One afternoon, Bertus and I lost two crabs at the same time on the same giant barracuda
!
Horse-eye Jack
Hunting for snook along the mangroves
You wont have trouble making friends in Mexico

Re: Mexico - Punta Allen
Thanks. You should try the salt, but be warned, once you do it may be difficult to get rid of it. ;)

The saline holds magical powers indeed.
