FLY into a resort area... Camcun, Playa Del Carmen, Puerto Vallarta, or Cabo and it's all good. Just don't rent a car and go gally-banting all over the countryside. All- Inclusives are great deals down there and you could plan a couple of days of salt-water fishing to boot.

Lilley and I went down to Amistad last April, fishing was good, but with all the violence there on the border, I wouldn't be in a hurry to get back there. Southern California has some excellent fishing as well as Texas. I would check out texasfishingforum.com and look at some Texas lakes. Lake Fork has over 30 of the top 50 big bass caught in the state. Florida has some excellent bass fishing too.

Good luck and be safe.
