Crazy Night Dive! Lumpsucker, Octopus, Seal - Oh My!
On this night dive, we saw a few shrimp, then we found a Pacific spiny lumpsucker and a giant Pacific octopus out in the open at the same time! The octopus got a bit too friendly, so we continued on with our dive. Then we saw a stubby squid, a ruby octopus, a whitespotted greenling eating a crab, and then out of nowhere, a seal attacked a giant Pacific octopus! What a dive!

Mom Caught a Monster Chinook in Telegraph Cove
Просмотров 31814 дней назад
Two summers ago, we went salmon fishing in Telegraph Cove. Mom caught a huge Chinook salmon, the boys caught some wild coho salmon that had to be released, and we saw some humpback whales and Dall's porpoises. It was heartbreaking to hear the news of Telegraph Cove burning down. I absolutely love this place, and I believe that it will get rebuilt in no time and its charm will be preserved for g...

In August 2023, my mom and I snorkeled down the Campbell River to see thousands of pink salmon, and a few Chinook salmon. Here is some of my advice for doing so safely. Please let me know if you have any other advice. *Edit: 2023 Pink salmon run size was actually closer to 850,000, and not over 1 million as I said in my video.

In August 2023, Teagan and I tried snorkeling with salmon in the deep pools of the Campbell River. Unfortunately, we were too early, so we decided to drift the river further downstream. We saw thousands of pink salmon and even a few big Chinook salmon. *Edit: 2023 Pink salmon run size was actually closer to 850,000, and not over 1 million as I said in my video.

I have never seen a lumpsucker, what a wunderful fish
very cool 🤿
Thank you ☺
Did you see any spotted eagle rays?
I don't remember seeing any spotted eagle rays in Utila, but we saw lots in Roatan.
as a local I appreciate to see this - thank you
Thank you 🙂
The visibility is insane! And also camera quality
Thank you! Yes, we have some pretty amazing visibility in winter! 🙂
Wow, just stunning!
Thank you 🙂
Awesome music really great flow! always love seeing your edits keep up the great work!
Thank you! It's finally starting to get easier and quicker! Maybe one day I'll be editing a month later, not a year later haha Happy New Year!
Love the info and names. Awesome footage
Thank you! It certainly takes a while to ID everything, but I find it fun! 😊
Yes! Awesome work
@@BC-bn7xd Thank you 🙂
Hoping to do some beautiful dives like this in 2025! Thanks for sharing - happy New Year! 🎉
I hope you get to do some awesome dives too! Happy New Year! 🥳
C'est à quel endroit en Colombie Britannique et aussi combien ça peut coûter la faune aliments magnifiques
Sur l'île de Vancouver. On est partis en bateau de Port Alberni et le logement est situé à Rainy Bay. Une longue fin de semaine coûte environ $1000 (pour 8 plongées, hébergement, et nourriture).
Merci beaucoup pour les informations et pour ta réponse je crois que ton père est québécois je crois et ta mère aussi et puis bonne plongée encore
Amazing as always! Could the unknown creature be a baby sea anemone looking for a place to plant itself? 🤔🤷🏻♀
Oh! Interesting! I hadn't thought about that! That is a possibility!
Always enjoy your underwater videos ! Stunning ! Happy New Year ! 🎊
Thank you! Happy New Year! 🥳
Which side of the ship were you on? Port side or the other side?
We stayed in the middle of the ship actually, no window view. But it was ok, because we didn't spend much time in our room.
Awesome video. Thanks for the info. Keep posting. I love driving 🤿
Thank you! Will do :)
Species info is awesome. Thanks.
Awesome foot. Keep up the posts. I want to have my own dive channel. But it's so expensive to travel.
Thank you! Yes, it's definitely expensive to travel. That's why I love living somewhere that I can dive locally. But it's so much fun to be able to travel and dive in other areas. I hope you can start a dive channel soon 😊
@@scubamax for real. Thanks. I agree.
@@scubamax ya bay of pigs in cuba was an amazing. I've been to explore dry suit diving. I don't like the cold. But the sunken ships in Tobermory were amazing . Cold. But amazing
Was an amazing dive.
@@toewstelevision I've never been to Cuba but would like to some day. Tobermory is super cool! You should get your drysuit certification. It opens up a lot of doors!
Good footage of the eel. Good episode.
Thank you!
🤿
11:54 I love ratfish. We have them here in WA, especially at the Mukilteo t-dock!
Agreed! Ratfish are so cool!
So many salmon facts!!!!!!!!!!! what a fun day
Thanks! It sure was!
02:50 Loved the slow motion shot in the shallows. Big props to your mom for trying out drift snorkeling, looks like an absolute blast! 😄👏
Thank you! I agree, slow motion is the only way to really appreciate the true beauty since everything moves so fast when drifting! My mom was very brave for snorkeling this river with me at the age of 66! We had a blast! Good memories that I will remember forever ☺
Where’s the Campbell river at?
@@ATRTAP Central Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada
Max, what kind or red mask and snorkel ur wearing underwater and where did u get ur red mask and snorkel. And what about ur friend Teague and wearing the blue mask and snorkel too and what kind and where she got it
My mask is a Tusa Freedom Elite, but it's actually a dark pink, not red. I bought the mask at the Nanaimo Dive Outfitters and the snorkel at a dive shop in Crystal River, Florida. I'm not sure what kind of mask that my friend is wearing, sorry.
Max, how can people be able to swim with Salmon and r people allowed to swim and snorkel with Salmon. Would u even try scuba diving with Salmon
There are a number of rivers in British Columbia that have salmon in the fall (anytime from July to November depending on the river and the species). You just need to snorkel a river that has good visibility and safe flows. Some people have tried scuba diving with salmon in deeper, calm pools in rivers, but this usually requires hiking with a lot of gear, so I prefer snorkeling and freediving.
Devils den and blue grotto is not as cool as paradise but they are worth doing once
@@kurtfoster962 Good to know. Hopefully I can try diving them one day!
Thanks!!
☺
Thanks for showing us!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching ☺
Nice video
@@SilviaIzaguirre-v3n Thank you 😊
Beautiful video
Thank you :)
great video! Watched til the spiny lumpsucker!
Thank you 😊
Way to go! There is always so much fishing line on the shore so I’ve wondered how bad line and tackle are in the lake.
Definitely lots of fishing line + tackle and garbage. Haven't gone in a few years, I should do another cleanup 😊
@@scubamax thank you for doing underwater cleanups!
That eye looks deeply intelligent and wise.
@@matthewbadger8685 agreed!
I’ve only been diving here once, this video makes me want to go give it a more thorough exploration!
@@raelynhalfhill23 I really enjoyed it. Have fun :)
Thank you, that was very entertaining and well done.
@@mddc. thanks 😊
Video really good, music annoying.
@ianmorrison9480 Thanks. It is hard to get good music without copyright issues. Glad you liked the video regardless of the music.
Two words " Dope Seals"
Hey Max, what are you using for your photo pans?
Just Adobe Premiere Pro
@@scubamax that's what I use to was going to suggest maybe mixing in a few different pan directions. Or a gentle zoom has always worked for me.
@@unchartedodyssey yeah, I should try some zooms!
I like the end song Rao's it all up in a light hearted way.
haha thanks!
As always a great tour love the commentary
Thanks :)
@@scubamax creeping up on a thousand subscribers there
@@unchartedodyssey 🤭🥳
I live 30 mibs from there hand done 50+ dives at Paradise. The last statue you showed is also right next to a headstone. It is in the memorandum of a diver that was killed down there when he was crushed by a falling boulder and trapped. We also fine skeletons and translucent crabs down there.
Oh wow! Thanks for letting me know! That is a horrible accident, but nice that there is a headstone to remember this diver. Translucent crabs would have been really cool to see!
Subscribed from Denman! Great footage!
Awesome, thank you!
Nice video and nice scenery.
@dangillespy3000-v3k thank you 😊
@@scubamax I live in the Comox Valley and there is a lot of nice, beautiful scenery in the Comox Valley.
@@dangillespy3000-v3k There sure is!
@@scubamax It's a nice place to live.
I have often heard the Pacific Pacific Northwest has very colourful and interesting underwater life. It was wonderful to see it for the first time.
Yes, these waters are very surprisingly colourful! Glad you enjoyed the video 😃
Same bro😊
How deep is it there?
My deepest depth was 27 feet and that was bottom, but it's possible that it could go a bit deeper in other spots.
Awesome footage!
@@brutusisadog thank you 😊
How deep are you and whereabouts off the island are you?
This footage is a compilation from shallow dives all the way down to 110 feet. I mostly dive around Nanaimo, Nanoose Bay, Port Alberni, and Campbell River.
wow, funs!
Thanks :)
Wow!
neat video! what camera do you use for underwater video and photos?
@lm1973 thank you. I use a gopro 11 with lights and a macro lens.
