Hello everyone,

Here is a photo of my doofy best friend holding a female Common Snapper I caught yesterday while out on a herping trip. We got some cool footage, so I am going to try to put together some YouTube videos. John, the gentleman in the photo, is my partner on our "Pondcast" show, and we are thinking of starting a field herping video project as well, but we will see. He is a comedian in NYC, and I guess his horrible hat is some attempt at humor. Even comedian jokes come up short sometimes.

This snapper was a cranky girl. She was blind in one eye, and she wasn't too happy to be taken out of her element like that. Obviously, she was released, like all the turtles and snakes we found, and hopefully the experience makes her more weary of humans and their boats!

Thanks for looking,

Anthony
