Nobody believes me, but I was kayaking in Redondo harbor and saw a giant grouper in the shallows! People say it must have been a BSB but I know what they look like, what I saw was a grouper!

Geez lol I know that but what I saw was not a BSB, WSB or a sand bass,.. It was another type of grouper, couldn't tell which species...I worked at a seafoods distributor for 6 years and saw lots of them come in.
