Catch

July 2, 2010 Flying fish...

So, we were stopped at a station, and while my group was doing our sampling, another scientist was trying to catch things with a fishing pole and also a big net. At night, we can see all sorts of life that swim up the water column to feed. We can see squids and fish. There are flying fish, too, which we can see shoot out of the water. I like watching the squids try to catch the fish. The squids also tend to hunt in group after one lucky fish. This lucky fish was injured before getting got in a net. Then, another scientist dissected him for samples to keep. That was fun to watch.
