Dog Gone Fishin’

Look at the size of that fish! And this dog means to catch it. I don’t know about these giant catfish; but the little ones in Tommy’s Pond had spikes on their fins and you’d better be careful with them.

Monsterfish!

Imagine you’re out in a rowboat at night, fishing under a full moon. And you’ve hooked into something hefty, you’re reeling it in, eager to see what you’ve caught–

And this is the face that comes up from the water!

The Asian sheepshead wrasse: I guess you could say it has personality.

Mr. Nature: Flying Fish Flying

Posting a still photo of a flying fish made me want to see video of flying fish.

Jambo, Mr. Nature here. Flying fish are abundant and spectacular; but having never been to sea, I’ve never seen them. I used to be fascinated, reading Kon-Tiki, by these edible little fish who used to launch themselves out of the water and wind up in the frying pan.

God’s stuff–always a treat to see it.

P.S.–Stay tuned! When I get back from the bank and the supermarket, etc., I will have a huuuuge nooze item for you (another nice mess blown up in the bad guys’ faces).

Here, Fishy-Fishy!

I used to feed my goldfish by hand. They’d let me pick them up, too, when it was time to clean their fish tank.

Here’s a man going out to his pond to feed and pet his catfish. I don’t hold with ignoring hungry turtles: he should’ve brought enough for everybody.

Funny Fish

Okay, they can’t sit in your lap and purr; but you can still have fun with fish. They can even get tame and friendly. My goldfish used to let me pick them up and put them in the sink when I had to clean their aquarium. I always fed them by hand.

And then there are a lot of funny-looking little fish which I imagine one might get attached to, in time.

There are even fish who get to be friends with cats. How is that possible?

Guaranteed Soothing Video: Friendly Fish

True, this video is kind of long (10 minutes), and I hope you don’t find it boring. But as for me, I could feel my blood pressure going down as I watched.

Who knew fish could be so interactive with humans? Did you? God’s stuff never runs out of surprises for us.
