I have been taking the boys fishing at Saratoga Passage off Camano Island. After two days Bradley caught a fish. It is a Pacific Sculpin---weird looking. After much discussion he released it and thought it was neat to watch it swim away. We may go again today. MB
The Pacific Staghorn Sculpin (Leptocottus armatus) is a common sculpin found in shallow coastal waters along the Pacific coast from Alaska to Baja California. The Pacific Staghorn Sculpin has spined horns shaped much like deer antlers on its gill covers, the antlers/horns can be moved slightly for defensive measures.
