ReplyDeleteCute trumpet fish. I love underwater pictures.
ReplyDeleteSo many wonderful colors under the sea!
ReplyDeleteI caught up on your diving adventure - awesome!
My post is at Carletta’s Captures.
I love underwater shots, that's why I'm adding you to my blog list, so I can visit all the time!!! Very beautiful shot - I love it
ReplyDeleteWe actually just saw a bunch of these while diving in St. Martin earlier this month. I had never seen the yellow color variation before.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful fish and underwater shot.
ReplyDeleteVery nice . . . happy Wordless Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteI love your photos. I'm not sure what I like more the fish or the coloring on the rocks. Beautiful.

Almost every time I visit here, IO find myself clicking on a photo to get a closer look. I really studied this one and all I can say is: Wow! That fish is really something. I wonder why it shaped like that and what the purpose of the yellow color is?
ReplyDeleteHappy WW!
Love the underwater shots, these are awesome.
ReplyDeleteHave great a day!

Beautiful ! You always show me pictures that I feel in another world !
ReplyDeleteI also read in the News that the Clinton cat Socks died at a respectable age of 19 years ! He had such a lot of success !
Awesome shot!
ReplyDeleteHappy WW! My entry for this is here.
Love the color of him. That is one strange looking fish. =) Grea shot.
ReplyDeleteAmazing how the yellow really stands out! Lovely!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great shock of yellow against the darker colors. Great catch.
ReplyDeleteStrange looking fella...beautiful too!
ReplyDeleteI'm always so awed by your underwater work. (And yeah, a little envious.)
ReplyDeleteMagnificent as always!
To answer your question, I really don't know what kinds of fish you can catch there, but I'd guess lake trout and possibly bass of some variety figure prominently. I believe both are probably stocked in both lakes.
That is a beautiful fish and a wonderful photo. Always enjoy coming here to see what marine life I can learn about today.
ReplyDeleteNice shot of the trumpet fish. It's just a narrow strip of yellow amidst the blue.
ReplyDeleteNow that is a fantastic capture. What a lovely fish.
ReplyDeleteMade me happy I'm not colorblind :)
ReplyDeleteI'm doing blue this week too.
Nice contrast the blue and yellow. Do you dive?
That is the weirdest looking fish I have ever seen!! Happy WW and thanks for stopping by:)
ReplyDeleteThis is a cool fish, and I bet it is fast.
ReplyDeleteB.

ReplyDeletewild and wonderful image!
ReplyDeleteThat guys looks awfully familiar, so my guess is I've seen him when snorkeling the waters at Mauna Kea beach.
