before the date, and there were lots of
folks who came in after dinner just
for the auction. You should know
that the bar had outstanding sales,
too, so it was a goodnight for
everyone. Thanks to everyone who
made it happen — from event chair
Francine Bailey and her committee,
to Don Basile and his great kitchen
crew, to everyone who donated for
the auction and raffle, to members of
the benefitting groups who did
everything from marking the parking

Whether you are in Kino or away

you had good holidays (like we are),
and we look forward seeing you back
for more fun as we start the new year.
I'm happy to report that the
December fund raising dinner,
auction, and raffle event was a huge
success — much more so than we
ever expected for this first-time
effort. Proceeds, after expenses,
totaled almost $9,000.00 — that's
dollars! And every penny/peso of it
goes to the 15 Kino service programs

a Home Tour in March. Watch for

A note about the 501c3
Charitable Foundation. In the last
issue we suggested that you channel
your charitable contributions for
causes of your choosing through the
foundation. We are now asking that
you wait until the foundation officers
establish the guidelines for this
particular way of using it. In the
meantime, if you want to make a tax
deductible donation to the Club,
contact Treasurer Mary Jennings or
foundation officer John Hazen about
how to do it.
From the
Membership Committee:
Our 2013 goal is to make sure all
newcomers to Kino get to know about
Club Deportivo. To achieve this goal, we
have designated members at each RV
Park to provide Club brochures to
newcomers, setting forth the benefits of
membership. If you see a new face,
invite them to a Happy Hour.
We encourage all Members to wear
their name tag. There is a drawing every
Friday night for a free drink for all those
wearing their name tags. There is a signup sheet at the Club near the computer,
if you need a name tag.
Remember to stay current with your
Club Dues to enjoy the many social
activates our Club has to offer.
Happy New Year from

From the
Bar
by Rick Harris, Bar Director
The bar has been busier than usual
this month. We had four Social Hours, four
dinners, two golf events and New Year's Eve Party.
The Charity Dinner was a tremendously successful
event. From the bar's point of view it was
specuacular event, with almost everyone having a
drink or two.
As an annual projection for sales I believe we
will have a record breaking year. Hopefully the
profit will be there also. The profit from the bar
supports salaries, utilities and building
maintenance, therefore is very important. We
continue to train and provide opportunity to those
who wish to provide service to our fellow Club
Members.
If you are interested in tending bar for
the Club Deportivo please feel free to contact me
directly via e-mail
(ricklindaharris@hotmail.com) or telephone 2421457.
Kino Ladies Klub
From the KLK President
Our school Christmas gift giving was a
great success. A BIG THANKS to the
wrappers, donators, deliverers, elves, and
Santas. A SPECIAL THANKS to Marla
Anderson and Francine Bailey for
organizing the entire event. We still have a
need for toothpaste, crayons, and stuffed
animals. Thanks to Bob Steele we have a
bodega to store items over the year. So if
you are coming to Kino in January or later,
we can accept these items to use next
Christmas. Have wonderful New Year.
Carol Wikel, President Kino Ladies Klub.
From the Scholarship Committee
IT IS NOT TOO LATE!
KLK Scholarship Committee is still accepting donations for the Spring
Semester! It costs $150.00 US to support one student for one
semester. We accept donations in any amount in either US cash or
check or pesos. The 26 students currently on scholarships have been
doing an outstanding job this semester in both their grades and peer
tutoring time at the elementary schools! We hope to be able to continue
to support all of them for another semester! The following committee
members will be happy to accept any donation you might have. Please
feel free to contact Judy Hazen, Georgia Hattenburg, Hilde Harrison, or
Sparkie MacVeigh, committee members currently in Kino or you can
email me (teacherjdiane@gmail.com) and I will have someone get in
touch with you! Diane Ackerman, Scholarship Committee, Chair
An education is something that keeps on giving!

HISTORY OF THE STRIP QUILT
to be raffled
The quilt top was made by Mae Condit of
Eckert, Co. Mae is 86, blind in one eye and has
macular in the other, but she sews every day.
The ladies of the LDS church put the quilt
together and all the material with the exception
of the batting is recycled. The quilts are never
sold, they are given to the poor or for fund
raisers
This quilt is called a strip quilt. This was the
type of quilt that was popular back in the 1800s
and early 1900s. Old clothes and household
items were used to make the top. The thin
material from sheets, shirts, dresses, etc was cut
into 9-12 inches squares; and then the good
material from the same articles was cut into
strips and sewed onto the squares making a
good warm quilt.
The quilt will be on display at the Club.
Tickets will go on sale mid to end of January
with the raffle winner selected at the Meatloaf
Dinner on Feb 9.
THANK YOU to Rogene Mahaffey for
donating the quilt & to Cathie Klopfenstein for
heading up the raffle!

melodious Gerry Hauer. She also
managed to “un-decorate” and “redecorate” for New Year’s Eve. As I
write, it is still a week away, but I

Fishing
by Matt Curtis
Note: Missing dates normally mean
that the wind contributed to boats not
going out to fish.
I have a NEW email if you can send
me any fishing news or pictures:
lyncurt0@gmail.com. Please send me
updates in January because I have
been held up here in Prescott!
Reporting Period: November 25
through December 23, 2012:
11/25 Calm seas and clear skies met
early arrivals at Isla Turner, with
yellowtail and some bonito being
caught over the south reef and at Dead
Man, despite a heavy current that
began to build. PATO, BOMBERO,
CAN I GO TOO?, SEA BASS, RED
ROVER, WET WILLY,
MAYFLOWER, NIGHTWINGS,
PERRYDIZE, and OVERCAST were
all in that area harvesting the YT and
bonito. RED ROVER and WET
WILLY went on to Esteban and then
back to Dead Man to finish the day
with limits. SAND DOLLAR got
limits of bottom fish at the Pyramids.
Most of our yellowtail came on
smaller jigs like the Tady #9 in
scrambled egg and blue and white.
There have been some really nice
spotted bay bass (AKA "sandies" or
"rockies") and gold spotted bass
(goldies) caught this Fall. Most
fishermen were doing well on
yellowtail and bonito trolling, but
some die-hards did better jigging than
trolling. Ouch! Some quit trolling
around Turner to dig up some nice
bottom fish, so it was a great day seawise and catching-wise.
11/26 Another nice day! TZIGINE,
DAKOTA, BOMBERO, OVERCAST,
PERRYDIZE, FISH FINDER (at least
until engine trouble sent him home
early) were all at Turner again, trolling
up more yellowtail limits and bonito.
The big news were BOMBERO AND
OVERCAST's white sea bass from
20s to 50 pounds while drifting and
jigging under the light house on the
south end ofTurner. KINO DIVERS
went for two dives at Esteban in 68
degree water, with 40 feet visibility.
They saw lots of sea life and had
plenty of company from the sea lions.
11/27 CAN I GO TOO? caught bonito
and a limit of yellowtail at Turner and
Deadman on the troll. RED ROVER
and NORTHERNER went to San
Pedro Matir for sardinero and jumbo
yellowtail. SAND DOLLAR trolled
the south end ofTurner and the
Pyramids for a few yellowtail and
bonito, then on to Cactus for one small
YT before getting a few more YT,
bonito, and bottom fish while jigging
at Dead Man.
12/2 NIGHTWINGS spent the day at
Christmas Tree casting from shore for
a half dozen halibut to 7.5 pounds.
First of the year for us.
12/3 TZIGINE, DAKOTA and SAND
DOLLAR all fished Turner for nice
bottom fish and one pinto bass.
PERRYDIZE went to Esteban
catching a couple of small yellowtail
at the lighthouse before moving to the
NW corner, out away from the island.
They reported huge numbers ofYT on
the surface which would not hit
casting jigs, but would take trolled
lures. They ended up with six really
nice ones.
12/5 The CAN I GO TOO? crew went
to Christmas Tree for a nice catch of
halibut caught casting from shore.
12/6 DAKOTA and SAND DOLLAR
fished San Esteban for yellowtail and
bonito. DAKOTA also reported
catching nice bottom fish and
sheephead off the west side in deep
water, despite a pretty fast
drift.NIGHTWINGS shore fished
Christmas Tree for another half dozen
halibut to 6.5 pounds.
12/7 GATOR BAIT got limits of nice
"goldies" near Turner and SAND
DOLLAR fished Esteban for
yellowtail at the lighthouse and NW
corner. they reported losing some
really big ones. CAN I GO TOO?
shore fished Christmas Tree for
halibut. Most halibut have been
caught on Kastmaster type or
Krocodile" spoons this year.
12/8 DAKOTA went to Esteban for
more yellowtail and did the same as
before on bottom fish. NIGHTWINGS
crew fished the shore at Christmas
tree for one sierra after 4 hours of
casting. Other attempts to catch
halibut at the shrimp farm and Red
Rock have failed to produce a single
fish.
12/12 FISH FINDER was at 14 Mile
for a decent catch of bottom fish
including nice fat spotted bass. RED
ROVER, WET WILLY, and ROSIE
all went to Willard Point for a
"bumper crop" of yellowtail and some
bonito, depending on where they
fished. RED ROVER stopped at
Barrel Point for some nice "brownies"
(sardinero) trolling. The lure of choice
seemed to be the X-Rap 30 bonito that
day.
12/16 DAKOTA went to Turner for
three yellowtail.
12/17 DAKOTA got limits of
yellowtail at Turner.
12/19 SAND DOLLAR had good
catches of yellowtail at Turner.
Sorry I haven't had time to add much
extra but we are very busy with duties
back home and having trouble coming
up with new ideas. I am working on
an article on the shrimping industry
and its effects. I am also interested in
doing a survey on trolling speeds
because I have heard a lot of very
differing opinions the last couple of
years.
Finally, a word of caution might be in
order after a couple of "human"
gaffings (supposedly, by accident).
Watch those yellowtail, they tend to
get quite excited going into the fish
box and might seek revenge.
