Hi Bob,
Thanks for your great posts and wonderful photos!! The fish in the first photo resembles what was called a Gar Fish in Florida although as you mentioned the photo's clarity makes it difficult to be sure. I don't know if Gar Fish is the real name but that's what I remember from my youth.

It is really nice that Negril still is your go to place after all these years. I'm sure there has been significant change but Negril Beach and the Cliffs remain an unbelievable place.

Thank you again for the awesome posts!!
