More Fish for Dinner and a New To Us Grocery Store
This was lunch on Saturday - pompano.
We bought these at the "Seafood City" store near our house. And they were imported - we've caught these on the East Coast.


Noe said "I like the way Lola cooks it better". She still ate it up ;)
Here's some other pictures from the store.






We'll definitely be adding this place to our list of places to get groceries (La liked the cleanliness especially - but ensemadas didn't hurt either).

Local Fish and Crabs Not from Around Here
I stopped off at Pacific Market in Waipahu to pick up a cutting board. They had a bunch of local fish for sale (but they weren't really fresh...)



They also had blue crabs for sale - and most were still alive! Hmmmmmmm.....

Long Beach Fish Spotting
We met up with a classmate and family friend at one of our old haunts in Long Beach - the "Pink House" beach.




Lots of birds hanging out - especially cool was the colony of Black Skimmers.


I noticed some movement just offshore (literally 5 feet) and saw some stingrays. Oh how I wish I had a good 5wt setup.... These guys were slightly smaller than the ones I used to see while paddling the SUP when we lived down here.


Lots of other cool things spotted while beachcombing.



As we are making our next move across country, getting to see old friends and our favorite spots is a great way to open our new adventures!

Fishing Report 6/21/2014, Part 4
We got back from the paddle and started crabbing shoreside again. The "not getting pinched" luck ran out.










La even got into the crabbing action.
Total score - 15 legal sized crabs landed; Noe got pinched once on her foot and twice on her hands (and the last one pissed her off so much she ended up pulling off the claw from the crab); I got pinched twice (this last picture was me getting pinched by the same crab that got Noe); and Marlon got pinched once.

Fishing Report 6/21/2014, Part 3
Noe saw a dead blue crab floating while we paddled by. She asked if we could double back so she could catch it with the net. During the rest of the paddle, "Crabby" was a part of the adventure.



Crabby did dry out and slowly started losing limbs (which contributed to what happens next...).

Fishing Report 6/21/2014, Part 2
After a while, we jumped on our boards and paddled out to the barrier islands further into the Chesapeake. Of course I had tackle onboard and Noe and I caught a few crabs along the way.






When we beached, I was hoping to catch a flounder, but there were very few fish around. I did see tons of Stripped Killifish, but none of the bigger predatory fish. Marlon and La paddled their boards really efficiently - the narrower boards definitely paddled faster than the aircraft carrier that had two people on deck. Fun paddle regardless!!!
