As a fish addict I am always looking for my next fix. I usually keep my sickness in check with my samples at work and normal fishing and dipnetting on weekends when I have time. I am always looking for new and different collection opportunities like a junkie chasing the feeling of his first high. To me there isn't anything much more exciting then sampling a new habitat or area with fish I may have never caught before. Its all the more exciting when its a habitat I have passed many times before without a second thought. Last week I happened upon one of those habitats and it was by far the most fun I have had in the field in a long time.
Location - Gulf of Mexico off Louisiana between Grand Isle and the Empire jetties between 2 and 7 miles off the beach
Habitat - Rip lines full of Portuguese man o' war, By-the-Wind sailors, and other debris
