Last weekend, Phil and I finally got to show Kevin Lee the reefs at Honeymoon Cove/Resort Point. Thankfully, conditions were good for Kevin's first dunk since April, and his partially healed knee didn't complain too much about the exertion. Nice to see schools of fish over these reefs.
Embiotoca jacksoni, Black perch
Cheilotrema saturnum, Black croakers
Sebastes serriceps, Treefish
Sebastes serranoides, Olive rockfish
Paralabrax nebulifer, Barred sand bass
As I recall, Honeymoon cove is the first site where we've seen these faint pink serpulid worms.
Lythrypnus zebra, zebra goby. First time I've been able to get even remotely close to one. I'll bet we can find it on the same sponge next weekend.
Alpheus bellimanus
Diaulula sandiegensis grazing on sponge.
Triopha catalinae
Facelina stearnsi Guaranteed to find these practically neon-orange nudis on the rusting Marineland platform or the Star of Scotland wreck.
Janolus barbarensis
The End
