I was swiming once round by the big house owned by Russians - PLaya Chiquita? ( Near the casino in Sosua ).
Along the rocks towards the point there were 4 or 5 locals - a bit of thread, a hook and some bread - amazeing how much they caught there.
I almost thought they were having me on and there was another Dominican in the water just hooking the fish on. Must have been a fish every minuite! Amazeing!

Pardon me for prolonging the hijack, but I couldn't agree more.
I can't remember the last time, if ever, that someone told me about a great fishing adventure, around here.
If it was worthy expedition, we would hear about it.
Better off to do something else or go to Rio San Juan and go out with one of the fishermen on his little boat, maybe combine it with a bit of snorkeling.
It probably wouldn't cost a red cent more than one of the big tours, and it would be way more fun, not to mention that you can end it whenever you want.

In regards to the fishing, We want our own boat..a large one at that, no skiffs.
Not even really to fish, we just want to cruise around, drink beers and perhaps
bring a few girls with us. I would love to do some scuba diving but no one else
in my group is certified for this.
Any land based activities worth checking out???

And God said to Adam,
"You have tasted the forbidden fruit, and now you and Eve are banished from the Garden of Eden."
"And where is Eve anyway?"
And Adam said meekly,
"She's down at the river washing up."
"Oh Hell", exclaimed God.
"Now the fish will taste like that too".

Default Fishy goings on.......

Something Fishy lyrics


(Dolly Parton)



There must be something fishy going on



You said you were goin' on a fishin' trip with some old friend

You said that you'd be home tonight somewhere around ten

Well here it is, it's two o'clock and you're still not at home

I think there's something fishy goin' on



I think that I'm a sucker that's swallowing your line

I try to make myself believe that it's all in my mind

But you never asked me if I'd like to go along

So there must be something fishy goin' on



There's something fishy goin' on

On these fishin' trips you're goin' on

I'm gettin' tired of stayin' home alone



Some night when you come home and discover that I'm gone

You can bet there's something fishy goin' on



I guess some large-mouth bass left that lipstick on your shirt

I don't think you're a fisherman, honey

I think you're a flirt

Well if you're goin' fishin' then why don't you bring 'em home

I think there's something fishy goin' on



There's something fishy goin' on

On these fishin' trips you're goin' on

I'm gettin' tired of stayin' home alone



Yes, you can bet there's something fishy goin' on





Rio
