Wolffish!

A number of NEUE divers making the trip out to the Chester Poling recent weeks have spotted the resident Atlantic Wolffish in the sand under the break of the wreck.

For those of you unluck enough to have enjoyed the superb conditions, I was lucky enough to get some footage of this fish on our dive this past Sunday.The Woflfish has a large head with a blunt snout and a set of canine teeth. Their body tapers behind the head, with a long dorsal  fin. They are a grey to slate blue color and grow up to 5′ in length !

For those not familiar with the Wolffish, they are often found in cracks and crevices so next time you’re out diving be sure to poke your light in some of those dark holes, you’ll never know what you might find !
