So how'd it go?

It was great. We did 2 dives. Saw the usual suspects. Some Ratfish, Grunt Sculpins, Great Sculpins, Large Lingcods, Rockfish, Soles, and excited anemones, which I hear are Sounders favorite.

Sargent Pepper, Penopolypants,Diver_C and myself did the first dive to the South Boat. Rat fish were everywhere, in the shallows, on our way out.
Large Lingcod egg mass was still there, Sarge saw the Ling, I did not.
Still no Octo in under the bow, but we saw plenty of the usual abundant life there. Penopolypants and myself continued north to see some of the tire stacks. Found a large Ling Cod and then a small, White Gunnel.
Good Dive. It wasnice to meet and dive with you Penopolypants!

Hope you can make it to the club dive at the Hood Canal!

Second dive was without Penelope. Sarg. Rich and I went North to aprox 60' and saw the main Junkyard of Three Tree N., Sarg stopped for a photo, sitting on one of the toilets " I don't think he flushed or washed his hands" Saw a Nice Frosted Nudie. Also found a small octo in a bottle.And when we got to the Sattlelight dish I remebered, from Tom-nic's earlier post, to look for the Grunt Sculpin. He was there! My first Grunt Sculpin sighting! Whoo Hoo!
:wav: (look in the tube that is mounted on top of the dish)
Thanks Tom!

To end the dive we went to 20' and rode the current back to the entry.
And saw more Crab and Ratfish
Both dives were aprox 60' for 40 min., nice relaxing dives!
Sargent Pepper, It was good to dive with you again!
Diver_C, It's allways good diving with you!
until the next dive... See Ya

It was great diving with you-all again, Bassman and Sarg, and for the first time, PenoPolyPants. One my strobe cords gave up the ship on the second dive so I missed Sargent Pepper relieving himself (and some other shots), but I did get a shot of the aftermath since he didn't flush. Amazing Sarg can eat a fish whole, and now, of course, the fish is embarrassed...

Sorry I missed this one... sounds like you all had a great couple of dives!

Nice pic! I haven't checked mine to see if I got any good ones.

Thanks for the dive everybody. I'm bummed I couldn't stick around for the second dive, but there's no rest for the wicked.
