The best time to visit Puerto Peñasco is now! I love to visit Rocky Point in October/November. The weather on its best behavior, air temperature is good, and so is the water. Rocky Point has easy access with normal border crossing procedures, and the same for Rocky Point. With the COVID-19 still around, we all need to use the best safety precautions. Wear the mask, wash hands, use sanitizer, and social distance. If you are sick stay home!

The Desert Fly Casters are planning their 57th annual Rocky Point outing. We plan to do it different this year. We will do without the social, and the large meals together. We still plan to have a large group, but we will meet in smaller groups, and won’t be sharing food and drink like normal. Many of the Rocky Point restaurants are outdoors and safer for dining anyway. Many of us have missed opportunities to get out, but I think one can safely get together while staying at a safe distance in Rocky Point. Once on the Sea of Cortez you have ample room for social distancing.

The Desert Fly Casters will be in Puerto Peñasco November 4-9. If you see them setting up to fly fish stop by and say hi, they are a very talkative group. If you are interested in fly fishing check with your local fly-fishing club, or contact Vince Deadmond, vince@ajbest.com or (480) 818-1796.
