Redondo and the Great Sculpin Whisperer

[bnboly]

Met up with Tom Nic for a nice 55min dive this Monday at Redondo. Little did I know that I was in the presence of the one and only Great Pacific Northwest Sculpin Whisperer!! :hello2: Once he spotted his prey the game was on!!!

Holding my breath (yes I know it's wrong but I couldn't help myself!) I watched as he moved closer and closer to the great beast many of us have come to fear!

I faintly heard the Whisperer beginning his sensless ramblings and mutterings thus completely confusing the poor beast sensless!

Soon the game was over and the sculpin was his!


The rest of the dive was pretty uneventful after witnessing such a spectacle. Below are a few more pics from the dive - viz was 20-25' - all in all a pretty good dive!

Wow... I'm almost speechless... Welcome back to posting after a long absence Bill!

I suppose I was bored and cold so that was my excuse to see if I could scritch a Scaleyhead Sculpin on his chinny chin chin. It was fun, no sculpins were harmed in the process, and it was cool to see if I could to it!



Oh, by the way, that's a GREAT Sculpin Whisperer, not a whisperer of Great Sculpins. They are a bit too big for me - maybe I'll work my way up to one of them after I've tried whispering a Buffalo Sculpin!

All Hail Tom Nic, Great Sculpin Whisperer!

I'd like to see you work your way up to the greatest sculpin of them all - the Cabezon. And to challenge your whispering techniques, let's say that Cabbie is on eggs too.

I think that I would then turn into the "Sculpin Screamer". As in screaming like a girl as I run from the monster's attacks.

I'm sure that would cure him of touching the wildlife for good. He'd probably be a couple fingers short after that.
