Plagiarism is pretty serious stuff. A lot of people have put in good work, and blatant plagiarism like this helps neither cause, nor ScubaBoard's reputation.

We saw about 10 at Blackie's Reef last night. Caught 4 & swapped them for some peanuts with the barmaids at the Mango Tree.

No slamming from me. He could have just made a link to the post rather than copying and pasting. I agree that the message is important, just bad form to copy someone's work and claim it as their own. I'm a teacher, I frown on copying.

Agreed, but once it's been pointed out, running it into the ground and taking the focus off of the lionfish is counter productive. There is a reason why we have this button:

I have possibly hit the report button once in my time here on Scubaboard. I wouldn't do it on something as trivial as this. Back to the message.

Wow.....what a DB
A couple posts by various people is running it into the ground? Now that makes ZERO sense. But thanks for the lesson on the report button

Go to Rum point and get that little lionfish hiding in the little reef line among the snorkelers here:
We've seen a small one in the rock/reef line by the snorkelers more than once
On it! I never even bother snorkeling there as my usually haunts are the coral garden (where I have seen them) and the reef. Will check out if the critter is still there next visit and take the necessary steps.
Don't suppose you reported it to the DoE or to Red Sail?

InN order to get a license for a spear in the Cayman Islands you really need to be a native, otherwise you have little chance.

Can we please get back to the barmaids at the Mango Tree?
