Author of Sex, Drugs and Sea Slime Interview on Fresh Air

Re: gear theft

When you post the details I'll definitely be watching for them on craigslist. Hopefully the thief is dumb and tries to unload your gear locally.

If you ever hear Brian Dennehy narrating your dive then you should probably thumb it. I'm just saying it's not a good sign.

Re: Redondo today!!!

Last Friday a group of 3 of us spent about 40 minutes looking for lumpsuckers in the eel grass between 10-15 feet and found one. We noticed that a lot of the life that had formerly been in the eel grass or immediately downslope (i.e. plainfin midshipman and bay pipefish) were now at 40-60 feet, as i...

Re: Aftermath at Redondo

I visited the eel grass beds on Friday night and found that they got pretty torn up - there are now many small patches with deep furrows plowed through the sand between them. We spent 30-40 minutes in the shallows and only found 1 lumpsucker. Would like to continue monitoring the eel grass to see if...

Re: new cam For Pentax fans

I had a Pentax 35mm water resistant camera that I took everywhere and did everything with. Since the production of affordable point and shoot digital cameras I've only owned Canons so I'm not familiar with Pentax's current standing among camera manufacturers. In the interests of redundancy, I like t...

Question for Frequent Keystone Divers re PS King Crabs

I've visited Keystone Jetty about 15 or 20 times over the past few years and it seems like I've seen more juvenile Puget Sound King Crabs there in the last year or so; on Saturday we found 5 ranging in size from 1 inch to 6 inches in width. I'm not sure whether to chalk this up to changes in my divi...

I had a great time diving the jetty with Dash and hitching a ride on the scooter did wonders for my air consumption - we made it farther around the no...
