At 3pm today at the Ajijic pier, Antonio Pulido Cortez of Chapala smiles from ear to ear after landing this carp measuring 23+ inches. No boat or pole, just a line, hook, and weight, baited with a corn tortilla. Life is good.

There are some big fish out there. Two years ago a fisherman in San Juan Cosala caught a carp weighing 43 kilos! Fishing in Lake Chapala is fun as the carp are always hungry and believe it or not the fishermen use corn tortilla strips for bait.
