My girlfriend the fish expert!

She did it! The last person I expected to ID the fish I caught in Japan (no offense, if you're reading this) was my girlfriend. It's called a Japanese whiting or シロギス in Japanese. It's popular fried in tempura.

Here's the website she used to ID it.

Enough pictures of fish, let's see pictures of the girlfriend!

Just kidding. When are you going to get out and fish again? Too busy these days?

Haha, she made a guest appearance on my post from Aug 13th. Things have been a little busy with getting ready for that collegiate powerlifting competition and writing my first research paper (the draft is due in 1 week!), but I'll definitely get out fishing again before it gets too cold.
