... and I encountered a Spotted Drum fish. This is a cool little fish that just kept on swimming the same pattern over and over. The pattern wasn`t much larger than 2` x 4`. I perched my chin within 6" and the cute little critter paused, and looked at me, then and continued with its little figure 8 pattern. What if I put my hand in its path? Well it just did a large oval on the side that wasn`t blocked, until I removed my hand and then it went on it`s happy figure 8 again. Cute little fish. See last paragraph.
