"The Wetter The Better" save lionfish from death

[ONESPEED]

I was told these things are VERY fast, very difficult to kill, and after they escape they avoid divers. REEF has study data; opine all you want, you're still wrong. This is why REEF came up w/ the bag system to catch them. Also, since lionfish learn to avoid divers, after all the no-aim-but-take-my-speargun-anyway-to-compensate-for-my-teenie-weenie guys give up failing to kill them, it will be more difficult for the people who actually know what they're doing to eradicate the species. But, hey, thanks for playing.

These guys clearly have superhuman powers....

Looks to be a big party with folks from the gulf coast states. Hmmmmmmm. And likely with LIONFISH on the
BAR-BEE.

Vortoberfest is one of those events everyone talks about for months after. I've yet to go but they seem to have a ton of fun.

LIONFISH

You know they really do look like cockroaches. Yuck!

Just got off the phone with my sister. She helped catch a LION FISH in Key Largo last week. They used two snorkles and a plastic bag to conjole him into their lair. She was the one who spotted it and surfaced...told fellow divers, who happen to be Marine Biologists (I know what are the odds) and they got all excited! Went down and captured it...ALIVE. Probably to be asphixiated later at their convenience.
