Fish all around

It was 40 foot visibility at Pipes, I saw a dead lobster on the ocean bottom.  No waves, but I managed to catch a few anyways.  I almost broke myself in shallow water.

I paddled way out to the kelp beds then back.  There were so many bait fish surrounding me, coming up from the depths and swimming after my lure, amazing clarity.  I looked into their eyes from above.

They carry no baggage; what you see is what you get.  Most fish dont drive a car, don't own a home.  They don't fight over money, but they still do fight over power, a defined pecking order.  The bravest fish usually get consumed.  Good for them.

Better to lose ones life chasing after God, than to protect one's life and lose their soul.
