I saw this last year on Playa Encanto. Some type of grunion found in Sea of Cortez that spawns during the day rather than at night like the Pacific grunions do.

Wow, thats seems a little early for the Gulf Grunion, but I'm glad to hear they're running!

Known as Sardinitas by the Locals

That's interesting. I wonder if the locals have use for all that fish. Or are they just letting them do their thing.

Anyone else find it odd that there are no birds feasting on the fish in that video???

Just a guess, but maybe the water is too shallow. ????

I find it odd that its hitting 80 out in the middle of Feb.
