For everyone who thinks they would be able to deal with the Mexican gangs, read this:

Those people don't give you your ups. They play by a whole different set of rules.

Disgusting. Guess this puts to rest she may have made it up, which was going around...

God have mercy on the border folks.

Of course they didn't say that it was his head that they sent to the police in a suitcase.

I have been following this... How is this and the existing threat on this and other bodies of water along the Mexican border effect Tournaments being held on these waters...Falcon and Amistad?? Is it really safe to hold events there now? Sure don't see how an Tournament Org can guarntee the safety of an Angler with the existing situation on the border going on.

It seems obvious, at least to me, that the gangs are trying to discourage anyone from monitoring what they're doing on the Mexican side because they're using the lake for smuggling.
Drugs and illegals is where the money is, not smash and grab of tourists/fishermen.
