Today was practically perfect conditions out on the reef, 6 mph winds, crystal clear and abundant with dolphins, a sea turtle, three Goliath Groupers, barracudas, yellowtails, and parrotfish. It was also absolutely void of all types of jellyfish. I became very excited to see the Groupers under my boat and fell in head first trying to get a better look.

I am always close to my boat waiting for the Goliath to come by, making certain that the ladder is always separating us. This fish wants to get so close that I can practically kiss it on the snout if I so desired.
