Looks like it might be Padded Sculpin, Artedius fenestralis, or Great Sculpin, Myoxocephalus polyacanthocephalus. Both have the trait of being able to change their color and pattern, making it harder to ID. Padded is small, 4-5", Great gets up to 20". <br /><br />Found info & photos of NW Pacific sculpins at www.emeralddiving.com/id_sculpins.html<br /><br />I love your posts, thank you. <br /><br />Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10297090336976928174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3407463303452874808.post-75286427544914767172016-07-08T00:05:07.333-07:002016-07-08T00:05:07.333-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13454887288748636661noreply@blogger.com
