Title: It was amazing to me....
Post by: Fatso on September 12, 2018, 09:34:13 PM

I found an abandoned crab trap.  As I pulled in the rope I noticed minnows falling out of the seaweed that was attached to the rope.  They were about an inch long and bronze in colour with a dark back.....they were baby rock cod.  I quickly put as many as I could back into the water and tried not to get any more in the boat.

I had no idea that they immeshed themselves in the seaweed so tightly.  I would have thought that they would have been scared away by the movement of the rope.  It was an interesting experience.
