Dave’s prize alligator gar, about 38 inches

It tried but it didn’t get the fish head!

Some little girls fishing at the end of the pier that day called Dave’s catch “impressive”! They were so cute!

Putting my catch into perspective, look how nice and fat it is! We’ve been eating gar for days!

Matching fish and matching outfits…not planned:-)

Using the tin snips to get thru the armour

Spotted sea trout, not our favourite but we’ll eat ‘em if we catch ‘em!

Our neighbour took us out in his boat for a morning of fishing and this is our haul, 3 black drum and 1 flounder. We caught a lot more but all too small to keep.

Flounder close up, aren’t they strange looking. They’re a flat fish that is always on the bottom so both eyes are on the top of their head.

They are really good to eat. There’s 2 filets on the top of it and 2 on the bottom. Strange one to clean.

This little guy swam right at the pier one day and just stopped and hung out for pics. This is zoomed way in and is just a baby version of the huge one Dave caught.

Spent a lot of time here

A small bonnet head shark, too small to keep

One of the many bait stealing crabs in the ocean. Pretty but annoying…if their shell is 6” across you can eat ‘em.

A little turtle we found crossing the road.

One of the many Gaftop catfish we’ve caught…they are the slimiest things ever and are supposedly edible. We tried them, don’t like them and you’d have to love them, to actually clean the slimy buggers.

Another Gaftop, what a surprise!
