Monday chores

 Following on from last week, this was another busy Monday also today.

Amongst a load of other things, I got my new Florida ID card!  And thus my crab trap license.  I promptly took myself, my new ID and a copy of the New Yorker off to ihop to celebrate over some waffles. A very enjoyable time had by all, I am happy to report.

Success!

 Great day out on the water this morning!

First, caught a ginormous parrot fish.  This feeds on the coral and cleans it, so after a quick photo and swift removal of hook (me and my trusty pliers) we got it back in the sea and on its way.

Then we went and checked the crab traps and caught this ginormous stone crab!  Same as the fish: swift removal of ONE claw and back in the ocean asap.
