Qué cubre este vídeo

Armand and Liya sail off anchor from Bahia de Los Angeles village aboard Cosmo, bound for Ensenada El Pescador, trolling the whole way at roughly five knots.0:46 They lose one lure — bitten clean through 275-pound wire leader, likely by a shark — but land a mahi-mahi and a skipjack tuna on the passage, plus hook two additional fish that don't make it aboard.3:33 El Pescador, their favorite anchorage in Bahia de Los Angeles, offers a white-sand beach and clear water but sits fully exposed to southerly swell; after a couple of days, swell forces a move around the headland to Ensenada El Quemado.8:33 There, Liya shoots her first-ever speargun fish — a grunt — on her only shot.12:38 A dinghy-trolling session in the bay produces nothing, but a later spearfishing dive yields four hogfish and a triggerfish.15:07 A Starlink conversion from 120-volt to 12-volt operation fails repeatedly; corroded fuses are identified as one culprit, but the full fix is deferred to a future episode.8:58 The episode closes with a note that anchorage reviews in apps like Navionics and No Foreign Land can diverge sharply from actual conditions, and that revisiting a place — Ensenada El Quemado had driven them off with bees in episode 58 — often tells a completely different story.17:41
