Do you leave your powerhead on at night?

+1 on this.. Flow varies quite a bit at night.. Think of tide in/out and lull periods. There are times when the water is almost downright stagnant.. Anyone here ever been 75 miles offshore and not see a ripple on the water? Its an incredible sight..

 

Yeah, tried it, seemed like no prob;D

 

wish Texas had the artificial reef program AL does though! The Corp of idiots has us locked down for now. You guys should had a state snapper season though. Anyway, I cant wait till summer, and those flat flat days. I watch for the v's coming off of ling on tide lines! you sight cast em just like redfish.
;D

 

bama, true way out in the ocean the water surface may not appear to be moving but closer to the shore (where corals live) there is always a little bit of a back and forth motion (minus low tide) with the coming and going of the tide. I have my return on a timer but it is only off for about 2 hr. a night 12:00-2:00am just in case there is a coral in there that like low flow at night while eating so i give em a chance even if just for 2 hr a night. Other then that all koralia and pumps are on 24/7 full speed ahead.

 

Me too.. That picture above is actually taken off the coast of Texas.. We leave out of port aransas.. What kind of bird is that on your avatar?

 

I am guessing 2 ducks

Now if I am thinking right, what is the chance one could shoot 2 consecutive numbered banded birds?

Now these could be birds that have just been banded, making consecutive numbers A LOT easier to achieve.

 

Actually, I have!
