Nice shots! Frogfish is awesome! How big was it? We will be on the big island in 2 weeks. A frogfish is on my bucketlist, hopefully I will find one.

So that fish that kinda looks like a rock is called a Frogfish. WOW what a cool looking sea creature! I have never even heard of that fish. I want to see one! Where do they dwell typically?

Dives were at 'old airport' and 'pinnacle'.

I went with Jack's for a couple days, nice that they kept my gear each night as the condo I was in did not have anyplace to hang and dry gear.
Frogfish was about size of my hand.

Everywhere it is warm :) Come in multiple colors. You can find them in reef pet stores sometimes. I kept fish for awhile, it curbed the need for the ocean temporarily. This is way more expensive unfortunately. And I am outfitting two of us. :eek:

Drink water, breathe air. Never get these mixed up.
