珊瑚礁文化和社交媒体可能不是最可能的配对，但是可以肯定地说，近年来，朝着更精通互联网的环境迈进的运动肯定已经站稳了脚跟。现在，您很难在没有Facebook帐户的情况下找到批发商或商店供应商，许多流星学的当局甚至在上述平台上进行了引人入胜的讨论。Instagram也没有从礁石文化的触角中幸免，尽管没有那么广泛使用，但它确实带有一些有趣的用户配置文件。
Wes Shinego是一名驻夏威夷的陆军军官，他的空闲时间赶上了他所在地区的当地礁鱼。他的标志性泡菜罐和海洋背景图片在他的Instagram帐户中巧妙地撒上了胡椒，并对夏威夷的海岸鱼提供了异想天开，相当有趣的见解。
Wes chases after his fish without any diving equipment sans a snorkel, a pair of US Diver Sea Lion Fins, a small 8 inch diameter scoop net and a mask. He carries with him a small mesh bag and that iconic pickle jar, and free dives up to 50ft with a single breath. He notes that some fishes are easier caught by hand, and he abandons his little scoop net in such situations. Wes’ catch and release hobby is both fun and educational, and by focusing his activities on patch reef, rocky ledges and bouldered areas, he minimises damage to live coral.
Wes shares with us some tips on hand catching fish. A good swimmer in pursuit of a surgeonfish or Moorish Idol can exhaust the subject within minutes, and the fatigued fish almost always swims toward the substrate to hide and recover. The tired fish in its hiding spot provides an easy target for hand picking, but it doesn’t always work. Sometimes they find themselves wedged inside a tight crevice, and in such instances, Wes only catches it if his fingers are nimble enough to fit. After photographing it in his jar, he releases his subjects back to the same area where he catches them.
在真正的夏威夷时尚,我们保持一个look out for the endemics and true enough, we sawAnampses Cuvier，，，，巨噬细胞Geoffroy，，，，Labroides phthirophagus，遗物Chaetodon Frembliiand many more all sitting nicely in pickle jars awaiting photo taking.
It’s really fascinating to see the different shore species peppered in this instagram account. Beautiful butterflyfishes such asForcipiger Flavissimus，，，，chaetodon ornatissimusand that lovelyC. Quadrimaculatus可能不会太困难，但是那些快速游泳巨噬细胞Geoffroy和神秘伪四烯绝对需要一些技能。我们不禁笑着想像韦斯用浮潜和泡菜罐子试图捕获一些有能力的鱼类，以想象韦斯在一个补丁礁上游泳。
韦斯还指出，根据季节的不同，某些鱼类的可用性，并在它们成长为青春期时认识到它们。他报告说，2014年，少年鱼的招募更高，确实与我们在水族馆贸易中看到的相对应。仅2014年就看到了更多的少年Chaetodon Tinkeri与其他任何一年相比，可用于业余爱好。
If you’re bored with all the #foodporn #OOTD and #nomakeupnofilter hashtags, then check out @WESHINEGO’s instagram account for an interesting change. It’s always fun to see what he’ll #catchandrelease next. I wish I had a hobby half as fun as his.
