Those salmon are an awesome capture!

...and from my experience, anyway, pretty rare to be seen by divers!

Are these baby salmon? I saw this school of them right at the shore (<5ft) in front of the staircase when I was coming back up.

I think you called it right. Salmon go through a stage called Parr, I which they have a type of camouflage with those vertical stripes called parr marks. Thank you, and everyone else, for posting.

Fun dive! Spent most of it in the bottle field. 2 stubby squid, a red octo, couple grunts, a lumpy at 80 ft. And a big fat moon snail.

Good times. Thanks SJ for the topside pics.

I was excited about my new snoot. Thanks for the recommendation Derek!

So I had to process a few pics right when I got home :) Enjoy!
