Heavy algae growth and mud/silt. So, most of our club diving is either in Puget Sound or Hood Canal. If anyone is inter...

With the loss of the pier at Mukilteo and the crabbing......
Has anyone been diving around the Boeing dock and if so,
have the crabs moved to that area making it worthwhile to
do some crabbing there this summer?

A short video clip (<1min) from dive with God's Pocket Resort on May 6th.
First time to see a pair displaying.

The 'stripped' markings on these yellow fish are slightly different, not as parallel as the blue stripped grunt. Different type o...

On my birthday, November 19th, Dick C. and I enjoyed a two tank dive of the Yucatan peninsula cenote called Dos Ojos (two eyes). dos ojos shirt logo_resized.jpg I know this is a 'long' video, 11 minutes, but the diversity of the geological limestone stalagtites and stalgmites that have formed over t...

Hood Canal. Sund Rock. Both walls.

Nice video.

Over the last month and half, I have noticed a large number of the sea cumbers have extented their mouth parts to be quite visible. Normally, do not see these often. Due to low D.O. and/or warmer water temperatures? IMG_3070 sea cucumber mouth parts 2_resized.jpg IMG_3079 sea cucumber mouth parts 32...

A couple weeks ago, a post stated that the crabbing was still available at Mukilteo near the oil docks.

Planning to crab there Saturday and like to know what the latest information is related to the oil dock work.

Thanks,

PapaZ
