The Humble Bean

Beans are a humble vegetable, often considered a poor man’s meat or a vegetarian staple. For many of us, beans are only an occasional food – a side order of beans and rice, black beans scattered on a salad, or a bowl of split pea soup on a cold day. Many people are even surprised that beans are actually a vegetable because they seem to straddle more than one food group – vegetable, protein and carbohydrate.

That combination is exactly why beans qualify as a nutrition superstar. They are high in protein while being packed with vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals like their veggie cousins. Add to that a rich complement of complex carbohydrates and fiber, while at the same time being low in fat and sodium. They help lower cholesterol, prevent heart disease, and help to control weight and blood sugar. Which beans are the best to eat? Read more …

Fishing Report

The winter seems relentless and never-ending. Still, we are wearing shorts most days, so who can really complain. I’m dreaming of summer fishing though and we still have a few months to go. Reports have been few as the wind has been up. One boat went over to Tortuga Island 54 miles out for a great catch of large yellowtail and a half dozen medium-sized cabrilla. I didn’t get the report yet on another trip up to San Pedro Martir (85 miles), which always has great fishing. I’ve heard of some improved grouper fishing if you can find a calm day. In-shore the water is still too cool to see too much action. I didn’t hear of any reports from the Island, other than a few “tough day” reports from earlier in the week. I did hear of some medium-sized yellowtail being caught off of San Antonio which is promising news. The bait is plentiful in close, so maybe the fish will show up right out front. They are probably enjoying the break from all the fair weather fishermen at the Island, and frolicking while we sit on shore. Hopefully we’ll see a break in the wind here soon.

A buddy and I headed down to Oviache Reservoir a couple hours away a few days ago. The lake was glass most of the time and the fish were biting good. In a couple of days we caught over fifty bass with a half dozen 3 – 5 pound fish. There were lots of big white pelicans flying around, herons and egrets prowling the shore, and cattle roaming for fresh grass. We were in shorts most of the time and the weather was perfect. The water was even warm enough for my friend to swim in after one lure. It was still too cold for me though! But is wasn’t a bad way to spend a couple of days in February.

Dive Report

For the few divers in town to brave the 57 degrees water, it has been very rewarding these last couple of days. Although visibility was not spectacular, we were more than happy with the 20 feet or more we found. Because of the cold water, big crabs came to the shallow water. Some even walked onto the beach. Two feet of crab legs look very scary to some, but for those people there were the Sea Hares to play with. These are also very interesting creatures and they are soft and cuddly. They have parties where more than fifty make a big ball and roll around on the ocean floor. Of course Sea Hares do not cook as well as crabs. So be brave and come on down.

by local musician, Eric Holland

We must give grand accolades to the SBPA (“Society to Benefit and Protect Animals”) and their sponsorship of the spay-neuter clinic last week…Special thanks to the president Sandy Fahrenwald …

Fight Night at Marina Cantina!

Saturday March 5 at 8:00pm

Anticipation continues to grow as Saul “El Canelo” Alvarez (35-0-1, 26 KO’s) prepares to battle Matthew “Magic” Hatton (41-4-2, 16 KO’s) in a 12 round bout on March 5. The winner will walk away with the WBC Light Middleweight Belt that was vacated when Manny “Pac-Man” Pacquiao moved to welterweight.

Alvarez, the current WBC Silver Super Welterweight Champion, has steamrolled through his competition on the way to this title shot. The unbeaten 20 year old fighter has won all of his 36 professional bouts with the exception of a single draw in June of 2006 against Jorge Juarez. He packs a powerful punch and has a reputation as a brutal fighter, winning 26 of those contests by knockout.

Countering Alvarez is 29 year old Matthew “Magic “ Hatton, who became a fan favorite by appearing on many undercards of his older brother Ricky Hatton over the years. Like his older brother, Matthew too has had a taste of title success, currently holding the European Welterweight Championship. He won that title by way of a unanimous decision over Gianluca Branco in March of 2010 and has successfully defended that title twice since with victories over Roberto Belge and Yuriy Nuzhnenko.
