Sund Rock 5-26-14: Wolf Eel in the open

Post by mz53480 »

:taco: :taco: :taco:

Video here:
phpBB [video]


Hit up the north wall of Sund Rock on Monday around 9am.
Saw the usual critters & features. Viz was pretty good too, lots of small stuff in the water.
Jellies too!

Got to see a wolf eel eating a crab, out in the open. First for me, and was very cool.

Happy diving!

Sweet! On the 16th we saw a wolfie free swimming near the north wall. And I got stung in the face by a lions mane. And I loved the pair of vermillion rockfish in your video.

That was great, thanks for sharing. I cannot remember if the wolfies up here were free swimming more often in the early summer or not, seems I remember that they did.

Hope you don't mind, I'm gonna share this on FB... :joshsmith:

I love finding wolfies out in the open, and man can they move when they really want to.
