Mukilteo Clay wall 8-21-07

Post by Nwbrewer »

lavindvl, Pez and his dive buddy Joe and I took advantage of the tides last night and did a dive to the mukilteo clay wall. Vis was pretty good all the way down to 80fsw or so, and current was pretty much non-existant. Hoping for similar conditions again tonight!

Jake, good pics of the grunt! I think those and duckbilled platipus (sp?) are proof enough that God has a sense of humor! I think Pez and i will be diving saturday, so call or whatever if you wanna do the boat or something. Love, Peace and chicken grease.

Jake!! I finally got a decent picture of a Grunt Sculpin at the Muk!! I must've taken 15 or 20 shots before getting this one. As soon as Joe and I left this guy we spotted a tiny one crawling around a little depression. It must have been no bigger than the end of your thumb. Little guy.

Sweet! He's a lot more orange than the last one we saw. I think the first one I ever saw was more on the grey side. Wonder if it has to do with diet or something. Nice find.

wow!! great pics. I always enjoy diving the clay walls because there are all sorts of little guys hiding in the little crevises and what not..
