I recently bumped into an an old work-friend and we got to talking fish.
It turns out he spends all his free time on the water, too. It also happened that, a week or two after our chance encounter, our days off aligned and we were able to meet up for an early morning low tide. With a second person to help, I lugged out the inflatable boat and we had a fairly productive day paddling between the bays and channels of the reef.
