Unique? Very. One of the keys to reading water for fish is to look for slicks. Slicks are a dead giveaway that fish are under siege! Slicks are formed by the oils released from prey species and viewed at different angles can appear to be many different colors. The PBO Slick lens has this same attribute as the mirror appears to be different colors from different angles. But don't be fooled, this is as serious Inshore and Flats lens.

THE STORY BEHIND THE NAME

Back in the day, we spent a lot of time chasing billfish in the Caribbean. Turns out this was also a large trafficking area for illegal drugs. From an outsider looking in, it seemed to be a serious game of cat and mouse between the long arm of the law and the smugglers. Both sides had their own technology and cunning ways, but on occasion, their paths would meet and the chase was on. I am not sure if it was for weight or possession but it is common practice for the smugglers was to jettison their precious cargo! Protectively wrapped in plastic, the bales of marijuana or other, bobbed with the waves until either picked up by the Coastguard, the smugglers or some not so smart fisherman!

The bales are referred to as a Square Grouper! It is also the name of a great restaurant in Cudjoe Key (Kat recommends you start with the Coconut Shrimp and Spicy Mango Sauce) one of our most popular frames!

A word for the wise: If you happen along on a Square Grouper, Do not stop, Do not pick it up, Do not put it in your boat!
