Our best chance of stopping illegal fishing practices is a network of SeaWatch people reporting them immediately to the authorities and the media. If you can act as a reporter for SeaWatch or witness a destructive act, e-mail John Riffe at jmrlapaz@prodigy.net.mx or call in Mexico at 011-52-612-5-51-08. (If you are a ham operator, report to John Riffe at XE2HUP via sideband radio on the Sonrisa net 3968.0.)

If You See Destructive Acts

- SeaWatch is interested in any stories or information that shows acts that are destroying the Sea of Cortez and its surrounding waters

- SeaWatch is also interested in stories and information about things that are being done to protect and help the Sea of Cortez. For example, we are very interested to hear how the new protected area around Loreto is working.

- The information will be passed on to the proper Mexican officials and we will follow up to see that your information is acted upon and if not, why not.

Important:

- Take Pictures or video

- Introduce as many facts as possible

- Contact the Mexican authorities.
