I love Redondo ... lately it's been a treasure. Was out there on Monday evening and found this little fellow ...

Vis was the best I've seen in a while ... 20-25 feet at the beginning of the dive, and a little worse than that after the seal showed up ...

Fantastic Bob! Your ability to get SO close to the various critters without spooking them is truly a gift!

What? Are you trying to say that we blunder along scaring everything in sight?!?

](*,)

Oh well, we're getting better....

GREAT PIC Bob! I think this was the same little guy Keith and I found last week, (I think I recognize him :-) )although your pic is MUCH clearer! (I NEED that 10mp Casio Calvin's been talking about!)

great shot, Bob! Are you still shooting with your Oly, and if so, are you shooting in the underwater "scene" mode?

That is a perfect Picture!

You Rock!

Yep, that's the Oly in underwater scene macro mode using the internal flash ...

Sounder and I dove Redondo today with an OW student. Jody did great and some of the best vis of the winter. The Ling Cod was at the Bug, but no eggs.

Stubby squid

Cera · Post by **Cera** » Thu Feb 08, 2007 3:28 pm

That brings up an interesting thing I have been wondering (but have been too lazy to look up)
Aren't cuddlefish a southpacific specific 'fish'?
(say that 5 times fast!)

Yes, and it's cuttle fish, unless they are, um, mating...

I can't say "south pacific specific". I tried twice and it just made my moniter wet.
