El Oro de Cortez

Part One

Part Two

Part Three

While down in Baja last week Jeff from The Reel Baja tipped me off to this documentary concerning illegal Dorado fishing in the Sea of Cortez.

El Oro de Cortez is a documentary about illegal fishing in the Sea of Cortez. Through interviews with government officials, scientists and fisherman the filmakers expose the huge amounts, thousands of tonns, of Dorado that are illegally exported to the United States each year from the port city of Guaymas, Sonora Mexico. Also exposed in this documentary are the tremendous number of marine turtles that are shipped off to the black market each year due to the illegal fishing of Dorado.
