Atlantic Wolfish in Cape Ann

        We met this lady offshore while diving with Cape Ann Divers a couple of weeks ago. A rare find (though I can't take credit for finding her) not to mention my first REAL LIFE wolfish sighting. OH Boy! I couldn't stop thinking about this magnificent fish. What's not pictured is a debris field of pulverized shells that were in front of the wolfish home (a broken pipe.)  In other words, anyone who was unlucky enough to be a passerby in this particular location.






After snapping a few pictures she became a little bit agitated and began to show off her artillery (pictured below). At that point I let her be and returned to the boat overjoyed, and happy to still have all my fingers...

 
Well folks, the season is in full swing. I'll do my best to start posting on a regular basis. In the mean time, enjoy the wolfish. A face that only a mother, or a fish-nerd could love...
