This pokey boy’s gaze is drawn towards the cameraman instead of myself. As you can see, he has no care in the world. He’s got everything under control. Boom! Invasive species taken out. Look at all these cute little guys. And we were lucky enough to see this big old school of Jack Crevalle. Whenever we go down to these shipwrecks, there’s always something cool. In this case, we saw a lot of Goliath grouper and the Jack crevalle. And we also got to see a stone crab, which is pretty rare in this particular area of Florida. There are a lot of stone crabs in Florida. But look at all these pokey boys. We saw a whole group of these guys right off of our caster wreck. The MV Caster was boom apprehended by the US Customs with over 10,000 pounds of cocaine on it back in the day. And they decided to sink it as a artificial boom reef. Here in Florida, we have three different wrecks. Actually four, technically, if you include this smaller swordfish wreck. All in one little wreck track in Boynton Beach. And they are pretty old school. They have a lot of good growth on them and very pretty. Boom. And we like to visit them frequently. We are in need of another wreck here pretty soon because these guys have been our only wrecks in this area for quite some time now. This is a horse conk that was taken over by a Crab. And this is what a stone crab looks like. Look at how cute they are. Super. You can see up his little doodads flipping about in his mouth there. It’s got that big old claw that. A lot of people will break that claw off and eat it without killing the crab, and then they grow back that claw. I don’t do that, but that’s what people do. There’s another one trying to fill the zookeeper right up. We were lucky enough to find a good amount of lionfish here. Um, I. We had a lot of cold water come in. Oh. Because there’s this upwelling event that happened. Really chilly waters down at the bottom for a good bit. The water that is really deep tends to be cold. And sometimes there’s a current that pushes some of that cold water into the shallower areas where we like to go, usually around 80, 90, 100 feet. And we can get there. Um, it’s really cold at the time. Look at all these freaking lobsters. We hit a mother load of lobsters. These are Florida spiny lobsters. And by golly, we also have Spanish lobsters, which are just a prettier, more colorful version of these. But that water is really cold and annoying at the time. But it pushes in a lot of tropical fish that can’t stand that great temperature change. So all of a sudden, our barren reefs with hardly any lionfish are packed again with lionfish. So we love when this happens. It really helps us to be able to get these fish with. That wouldn’t normally be in our grass. Bam! Little ones. Look at that. How small that one was. You can really tell it’s. See, when I put them in there, that goes in so easily. That means it’s a small one. But sometimes you see us shove a great big one in there. Let’s see how big this one is here. Boom! Once again, the camera kind of distracting this fish. You can see it was looking at Alex and not me. So it’s kind of beneficial, actually. They can only really focus on one thing at a time. So that’s why I use the twiddle fingers, or I shake the camera a little bit to get them to focus on that camera rather than the tip of my spear. If they’re always looking at the tip of the spear, there’s a pretty good chance they can dodge. Not that, like, I didn’t dodge. They can dodge the shot, and it just makes for, you know, a longer dive. It’s annoying to have to miss. This is a little spotted drum juvenile. Super cute. High hat is another fish that looks very similar. Sometimes they get confused. Boom! But when they’re small, it’s really tough to tell the difference between you guys. Let me know if you think that was a high hat or a spotted drum. Here we are. Look at How pretty this. All these different hard corals and crusting. These are hard and crusting corals. We’ve got a lot of corals here, but thankfully, our water stays cold enough most of the year that they don’t die off like a lot of other areas. But you can see this guy got stoned halfway through his body, and he’s losing color. I posted a video on this the other day. Here’s the actual time in which it was shot. So you see, half of his body is black and half is white. I pretty much just hit him right in the spine, and it made his tail not work, which makes capturing much easier. Gosh, we are catching so many little ones. Pretty much we just cut the little ones open and we give them to the catfish. Um, when they’re that small, it’s really tough to try to get any meat off of them. You could gut them and cook them whole and just eat them like potato chips. I guess I’m not that big into fish, considering lionfish is the only fish that I personally eat. Look at this spawning barrel sponge. There wasn’t very much spawning going on, but this guy was definitely going. This is a female barrel sponge. You can see the eggs are coming out in droves. Beautiful blue angel fish over there watching what I’m doing. Angel fish are very curious, and they’re not that scared, typically, because they’re not really targeted, thankfully. By fishermen. I can’t imagine they would taste very good. Maybe that’s a good thing for them. They’re super pretty. And people really frown upon people killing pretty things. That’s unfortunate that we use the speciesism, but at the same time, I don’t want to see anybody bring up my angel fish. I would hate to see somebody kill an angel fish. Super against the rules. If you brought an angel fish on the boat, you would be ostracized. You would be. Oh, my gosh. Wouldn’t be good. And I appreciate that. There’s Alex showing you how the, uh, spadefish are cruising along here a little higher up off of the bottom. Spadefish like to hang out in big schools. It’s pretty rare to see just one on its own. And that will do it for the first time. But I want to show you really quick how our scooter works. That’s the wreck, and it’s tied off. But this. People are asking how the scooter works, and that is just this, uh, cool mechanism that allows you to set the speed. So it can be set and then adjusted, and then you can just cruise along like it is between my legs right now. And it pushes you along from your crotch forward. And you’re able to use your scooter hands free, which is a huge bonus. So there we are with the glass grouper, and we’re waiting to get back on the boat here, doing our safety stuff. Thanks a lot, guys. Remember to, like, follow, share. Definitely follow us. We appreciate you.
