Mickey's Marina, Burgers, Thousands of Mullet...

Chillin' at the local marina
(er, um..."bar"), where I took most of these photos...

In addition to the wonderful views,
Mickey's has absolutely DEEE-LISH-US burgers
and homemade fries!
They're pricey, but they're huge...
two people could easily share one
and feel delightfully satisfied.
(unless you're ravenous)














William (on the right) and Doug Bell (on the left, owner of the Rockin' B Steakhouse ...yes, "melt in your mouth" steaks and other awesome food)...
talking about their motorcycles.




























A huge school of mullet (aka "bait fish" here)...
thousands of them swam up in to the marina...


Yes...they are as big as they look!



Mmmmm, did I see fish? :-b


Something big swimming (more like meandering)
through the canal (about 50 feet from our door)...
The canal alongside our RV Park
Local plants suffered a severe beating
from the golf ball size hail...

People fishing (it's a Garfish) in the evening at the end of our road. (Aransas Pass, Texas)

Blue Crab

Garfish



Common name: Garfish
Scientific name: Beloniformes
Water type: Saltwater
Fight Rating: Medium
Specie Description: The garfish are oviparous and the eggs are often found attached to objects in the water by tendrils on the egg's surface. Garfish have unusually green bones (due to biliverdin) which discourages many people from eating them. Many consider garfish to be delicious fried, baked or barbecued.Its pelvic fins are located in a posterior position as are its dorsal and anal fins. They are positioned for posterior flexing of the body.
