Casper,

that sounds like a good meal. Be careful though, you've probably violated
some law about raising fish for eating without a license.

I'll be heading to the convention bright (actually it will be dark) and
early on Thursday morning. I should make it into town noon-ish or so on
Friday. I look forward to seeing everyone and to some good snorkeling.

As an aside, is there any chance of seeing a Blotch-sided Logperch in the
Paint Rock? I see in the Fishes of Alabama book they've been take in a
couple upper tributaries?
