Little Fish

Adventure Location: Mustang Island, Texas

The dunes are exploding into blooms all over the place.  It is quite a sight to see, so run on down to the beach and enjoy the spectacular show going on.

The days are bright and warm but not hot.  The Winter Texans are really enjoying not having to fight the ice and snow that has already hit up north. For most everyone else but the OFM, the fish are biting like crazy.  This picture was taken at the Fish Pass Jetty on Mustang Island.  You should have heard all the happy to be warm talking going on among these fisherfolk.  Even that fellow’s dog was getting a kick out of the warm weather.

As the OFM was watching the water rushing ashore and returning seaward, a never before seen by him event took place.  Suddenly the water exploded in rain drops hitting the water.  Then he realized it was little fish exploding the water all over the place. In this next picture a red circle is around one fish the camera caught.  All those little splashes are fish frolicking around in the water.  This event went on for a long time with no sign of stopping.  The OFM finally gave up and headed back to the beach.

Speaking of beach, it was a great day of gentle waves. There were a few groups of folks on this part of the beach just out walking in the warm sun.  Some were doing a little beach combing. Others were doing feather leg watching. Still others were doing whatever feels good at the moment. It was really nice.

More pictures will need to be edited yet before the tale of what the Teams saw at the beach can be told. It was a fabulous day for trying to have tooooo much fun. TheOFM.
