Saw several of these in Hood Canal.

Would appreciate name and info.

Not sure what this is, but were you at sund today?

Not at Sund. Was at Yellow House mid week diving in 'Canal though.

Very cool. We seem to have the same idea/schedule over the past couple weeks.

Still would like to know what this one is.

It's what's left of your hair after all these years....

Yes, probably true, but I know to 'kids' that were at the root of it all!

I think it's some sort of eel grass? I've seen it in a few places in hoodsport, usually in the shallower areas (above 30fsw).
Not exactly sure though. Good luck on the ID.

There are some bryozoans that sort of look like this, but I've also seen dead algae that changed color and kind of looked like this too- would need a close look at it to figure out what it is.
If I had to guess I'd say the latter, as there is some on the left side of the picture where you can see some of it that is brownish in color and it changes at the tips to that bright yellow color.

Thank You for the information.
Nice spot on the brown algae with a couple orange sections.
I had not noticed it before.
