China Rockfish (Sebastes nebulosus).  This little fella at Duncan Rock near Neah Bay is responsible for me tearing a hole in my drysuit!  It was the last photo of my dive.

Grunt Sculpin (Rhamphocottus richardsoni)  This little one was at 60 feet guarding her eggs in a tiny bottle.  They are my favorite fish of the Pacific Northwest.  Look for them in empty giant barnacle shells with their tail sticking out to emulate just another feeding barnacle!

Big Skate (Raja binoculata), West Seattle.  These guys can reach up to 8 feet!  Look for their eyes poking out of sandy bottoms.  This one was only 15 feet deep and on this rare occassion, was not eager to get away.
