These are probably gray chubs, but might also be brassy chubs, or even a mixture of both. The two species look similar and are found in similar locations, in the surge zone. I like to find a safe spot, just outside this zone, and watch the swells roiling in and see chubs and other fish swish back and forth with the swell.
Chubs are quite common and they aren’t shy. They’ll pass quite close, often with a cheerful, engaging look, which makes them a fun fish to encounter.

If I saw them while snorkeling, I’d probably freak out thinking they look like piranhas 😀

No piranhas here – at least as far as I know!

That light in the shallow water is great. Lovely shot.

The fish are great but the captures of the light rays and the churn of the water are incredible!

Thanks, Terri. It’s a bit hit and miss taking this kind of photo but it’s always nice when it works out.
