The two larger fish are bonefish. Really fun to catch, as they fight hard.

You have to scrape the flesh with a spoon as they are very boney. I mix up the meat with water, salt, and roasted and ground Kukui nut mixed with dry Chili pepper powder, then eat it raw.

In the Bahamas remember watching a local (Bonefish Joe) with clients fishing, in three feet of water, standing in a skiff fighting like mad with bonefish

They certainly are exciting to reel in. They pull very hard. I am always amazed at the perception that you are fighting a 50 pound giant, only to see it's only ten pounds.

There are a few outfits here that host charters for fly fishing for them. I bet that's a hoot!

Molokai Purple was developed in 1978. It was a variety that was created naturally by cross pollination and then cultivated.

It has been very popular here locally served in high end restaurants and featured by many well known chefs such as Emeril Lagasse, Perry Bateman and Sam Choy.

I like to steam them, then whip.

Cool . . . I'd try them, but I have to avoid the carbs.
 
If memory serves me you are a drummer. Saw a video on YouTube today of two drummers one upping each other and thought you might get a kick out of it. Jamey Johnson, Tulsa Time Live from farm aid 2016. The drummers start around 3:20 and drum for over 3 minutes
 
Beach day! I hope you all carry paracord in your trucks too.

We are experiencing drought, so many deer are not doing well. This guy was by our parking spot, so I broke out the trusty CS shovel and got to work.

Sand was carried and poured over the remains. If you have not bought one of these shovels, go get one now. I use it ALOT.

The wood is a little singed, but still tight.

Shade is up and cooler iced.

H1 still going strong... zero corrosion. I prefer this older handle shape to the new version.

I don't have that specific shovel but have been looking for another good shovel with hunting season here and winter coming real fast. I might give this one a try.

MolokaiRider MolokaiRider is there some disease running through your axis or are they succumbing to lack of food/water? Around here we consider them an invasive species to be dealt with but I hate to see any animal suffer.

Otherwise it looks like a fun beach day, thanks for sharing!

We have been going through drought conditions for just under three years, and seeing a massive influx of new hunting outfitters serving wealthy trophy hunters. These businesses are keeping local hunters out of lands previously hunted for sustenance, which also kept herd numbers in check.

In addition, people are moving here in droves buying property cash over value. The rural lifestyle is being invaded.

So due to less food, exploding population numbers, and lack of local hunting access, herd health is suffering.

It is a hot mess, and being that deer meat is a staple, there is a lot of tension over the subject.

I have gone on talk radio and also been on interviews by local news to try to shine light, as well as helped launch a non-profit hunting club.

Despite trying to be pro-active, the needle is moving in the wrong direction. The Gov is getting more involved, and our taxes are paying for helicopters shooting up herds and leaving the carcass and meat behind.

And now we have a Tuberculosis outbreak in the wildlife and ranching population. Hmmmm... I wonder why.....

Sorry for the rant.
