    Folks this is a wonderful breed and help with corraling the kiddos as well. Extremely smart and talentive. Yes, this breed is a very active dog. If you love to run, walk, throw, etc, this would be one to keep you going. They are also protective, friendly and amazing to watch them play.

    By the way, Sargasum is the yellow/ brown sea weed that washes on shore this time of year. Take a net then start wading around. Pick up these clumps of sargasum that are floating around and shake them over the net. After awhile, you will end up with anglers and filefish.

    Here are some of the other ones that were collected.

    One of two puffers we found in the grassy areas. The other one was twice this size. He went home with a buddy of mine who was other there with us.

    Here is a wrasse. It is called a slippery d**k and no I am not making this name up. lol

    Remember that collecting corals from the Gulf is not allowed. These are found everywhere, even along the jetty. Also saw a lot of SPS

    Just run your fingers through the sand when you are splashing around. Don't be surprised if you grab something else like I did. Lol

    These large ones are caught along the grassy areas but also on the beach (when you get lucky like we did on this particular one).

    Also found in a lot of areas.

    Sorry for this bad pic. He is a juvenile blue headed wrasse

    What I had hopped to catch at the jetty but was unable to was the French Angel. The waves were too rough that morning which was our last day.

    Keep in mind that the tropical fish die when the water get colder in the winter. The adults lay and fertilize their eggs in Mexico and the Caribbean. The eggs make their way here which is why the fish were see are small.

    I just wanted to say that I learned a mountain of information on this trip and have much more to go. Thanks Carl for teaching Belinda and I and for getting me to go into areas I would have never thought I would ever go into. I hear August and September are the best months. Can't wait to head back.

    Are y'all going to go back in August/September? Count me in if you are. Where did you stay?
