Spotless

We saw a spotted eagle ray at our dock a few days ago.  It looked like it was trying to climb the piling.


Later, we noticed it had a lamprey eel on its back.  We thought it was trying to rub off the eel.


The Ranger tugs are having a rendezvous here again this year.  They have 21 tugs in the marina, and some other folks joining by car.


It may not look like it in this photo, but we really stand out from the tugs.  Outboard motors.


I went out looking for redfish again today.  My efforts were finally rewarded.  I caught two really nice reds.  If I had caught them in reverse order, I could have said that I caught my biggest redfish ever--twice!! However, I caught the biggest one first.  It was 35"  (I don't have a scale.)  The second was 31".

The bigger one did not have a spot on its right side.  (One spot on the left side.)
