Cleaning the Catch


A San Pedro fishing boat Captain Cleans a Barracuda

We walked down the beach and met a fishing boat Captain and his crew who were all very friendly. He talked to us as he was cleaning the fish and told us to just wait a little bit and his friends would come to visit. We were kind of wondering what he was talking about when sure enough here came not one but three rays to feast on fish pieces and parts. The Captain told us every evening he cleans the day's catch at the base of the pier and every evening he is visited by a number of rays who eat the free leftovers.
