Ask Sgt. Pepper about the SUPER aggressive shrimp that chased after the both of them. I don't know what they did to that little guy, but he was POd! Diver C may have gotten some shots, but I think the shrimp was all up in his grill and such, so he may not have gotten a good focus on the beasty.

More details! More details!!

Sarge? Diver C?

I can understand being attacked by a cabbie but a shrimp?! That's got bad news written all over it... starting with the phrase "a shrimp attacked me."

So Sarge - I hear you might bring the new Mrs. Sgt. Pepper and mini-you tomorrow night!

So, Adron comes across this sleeping shrimp on its side last night in the shallows of Cove 2. Thinking its dead, he pokes it.

The shrimp SPRINGS to life

, and starts swimming after Adron with its two teany, tiny propulsion systems working 200%, spinning frantically, and its little pincher trying to pinch him.

Although, I think its teany, tiny brain was thinking attack

, not pinch. It was quite hilarious. The look on Adron's face

The Attacking Shrimp was darn determined to get Adron. Feeling :rr: I nudged The Attacking Shrimp with one of my strobes

, and it decided it would (try to) get me instead.

It was very difficult not to spit out my regulator from laughing so hard.

I did get a picture of The Attacking Shrimp, and will try to post it tonight. I wish I had thought of switching to video. It would have made for some great hilarity. Still feeling feisty and not able to beat us up, I'm sure The Attacking Shrimp probably kicked some poor unsuspecting shrimp's tail as soon as it landed, and found a real potential victim

Now, you can't say you've not been warned - be wary of The Attacking

Shrimp in Cove 2 around 15', mid-Cove. I think I will dive with a little cocktail fork and some cocktail sauce tomorrow.

See!? Is this a great place or what!?

Stories like that keep me divin' and smilin'!

Between Jr. and the attack shrimp there will be some crazy thoughts going through the minds of the critters in Cove 2 tonight when the army of HID's and regular lights descend on that place... :rr:

Tom - I think I'm going to bring my dive-sword today in case we have to tussle with some rogue shrimp... though I like Rich's idea of a cocktail fork.

Enjoying being narc'ed? Well... you either like it or hate it. Warm and fuzzy or apprehensive and paranoid. Then there are those who become OCD... checking their gauges every 10 seconds.

Dude, I don't want to see you refer to another guy as handsome ever again

. I thought I was a little effeminate since I squealed when a shrimp tried to attack me, but that's ridiculous.

P.S. The most interesting part of the evening with the shrimp attack was about being head butted by what I swear was a Cabezon at Cove 2. I know, I know, I've never seen one there either, but it must have been a cabby, and it was absolutely enormous.

I've seen cabbies at Cove 2 several times.

I've heard of this rare species of marine life, known as the Rambo Shrimp it's only found in shallow waters on the south side of Puget Sound. You should all log the sighting!

Anybody with kids who has watched Shark Tale has seen the gang of shrimp who challenged the sharks, maybe you ran into one of their members?
