don't know what type of minnow it was.. they were at jax beach.. small and almost clear white. had a blast trying to catch them. lol.. caught 4 in one try but couldn't catch any more.. they were pretty fast ...

.. what can i say.. it was fun.. just cerious to what size they get. would have been an interesting project for a small tank for kicks ... as an after thought. we let them all go. would have been to hot to keep them anyway and didn't have a cooler with us.. would have been cruel to them.. (as if trying to catch them wasn't enough as it was.. lol..)
the kids thought it was neat to see them and the clams too. we watched them burrow back into the sand.. they had fun digging them up and we put them back on top of the sand to watch them.
we also found what looked like a
bristle worm. i thought that was neat to show the kids. kinda educational as well as fun. its too bad there wasn't any more critters to show them. maybe one day i will find a place to take them to see other ocean critters in their natural habitat ...
