Clarions do not need Cites , they are restricted cause Mexico goverement decided they are, not cause they are endangered species.
The charter to go to the islands where the Clarions are, will cost you alot of money, it's something like 400 miles from Cabo San Lucas.
I never heard about the Mexican permits for 2 fish,it's new to me.
From what I heard there is no fishing allowed there.
Im trying to get a couple for long time now, I guess I wont till somebody in Mexico will get some sense and will decide to start releasing some fish instead of them becoming food.
