I typically don’t eat desserts but I always save room for tres leches cake when I am fishing at Anglers Inn. “Tres Leches,” which means “Three Milks,” is a rich, fluffy creation found in just about every Mexican restaurant. Tres Leches is a celebration cake, a must have during birthdays, graduations and even weddings – or to celebrate lobina grande. Here’s how I made it at home.

We’ve gone twice to Casa Vieja Lodge to target sailfish (and perhaps marlin), but one nice aspect of the fishery is that there are various other species to catch, whether intentionally or unintentionally. If you’re fortunate to catch a mahi or tuna in the morning, you can eat it minutes later.

Pop tarts, Clif bars and PB&J (make sure it doesn’t have too much jelly, can’t have it dripping down your arms while flying down the river) are all great, easy, fast options for a day on the water….if you are in your 20s.
