[fishguy242]

not a chance...

not a chance...

Because something like that does exist, and that means that however slim, there's a chance I'll have to experience it at some point in my life.

In other words,

We be tropical people and like tropical weather.

i feel sad for all that have never experienced four real seasons.
springtime when everything renews.
summertime... bleh.... whatever
fall when the leaves change from green to golden yellow and blood red and it's time to hunt.
winter naked snow angels.

I lived in PA for a bit and experienced all 4 seasons. Just not for me. My idea of seasons .

Spring: Mahi mahi and snook = low to mid 80s
Summer: Blacktip, Wahoo, Sailfish and blackfin tuna = mid 90s
Fall: Snook, Kingfish and other mackeral = low to mid 80s
Winter: Flounder, Wahoo, Pompano, Spinners = 70-80

you got all that in TN?

 

[1ocean]

ah coffee time...then have to go mail back this Finnex heater and controller...stupid thing would keep shutting off at 72.8 after I programed it to 78...
Only had it 2 days....crap....

 

[Eagle_Steve]

Why I am moving as soon as Paxtin graduates lol.

Right now it is

Winter: temps from 0 to 70
Spring: 40-85
Summer: 60-110
Fall: 40-85

Just no consistency lol. I mean a bit ago we had all 4 seasons in a week and 9" of snow thrown in that. I will trade the deer for fish and the temps for sure without hesitation once he graduates lol.

 

[danieyella]

I just like warmth.

Matt says I'm a reptile and I require the sun to regulate my body temperature in ways that humans should not.

Good morning/afternoon all,
I should have a few updates later today during lunch break...

Here’s closer. Little blurry. Hard to do with my phone as both patches are roughly the size of a quarter

@BeltedCoyote @Casket_Case Was there ever an ID on this?
Right when I saw it, it reminded me of something I saw in a reference book, so I looked it up and think this may likely be a type of bryzoans (note this picture and this picture in particular).
