Eric went spear-fishing last night and caught 4 of these huge fish. They are called parrot Fish and in my opinon, are the best fish ever! They actually caught 4 but only came home with 2. After Eric speared the fish, they string them up and put them in this mesh bag (pictured below). Then they just drag the line with the bag at the end while they continue to snorkel. 
Then comes the "TUG". That "TUG" would be a shark (yes people, I did say SHARK!) coming to take his share of their winnings. The SHARK bit a whole through the mesh bag and easily ate two of their four fish. Eric calls it the "tax collector" He says you have to give back to the ocean when you are blessed with fish. 
AND I AM STILL SHOVELING SNOW!!
