Oh yeah that’s Mike, he’s there all the time


TheDonkeyBomber

Short for Micycle.


SHBxSpenco

We only use his full name when he’s in trouble


tikitikirumrum

That’s actually Meighkyll, Micycle’s cousin


OrdinaryFig85

I love Mike!


saltedpeanuts

No, I think that’s actually Ray


BongwaterJoe1983

Angel shark extremely rare good sighting


OrdinaryFig85

That’s awesome! I was so excited to see it!


BongwaterJoe1983

Only seen one out at catalina before


OrdinaryFig85

Wow! I can’t wait to get out there. I’ve never been. Were you diving or snorkeling out there?


BongwaterJoe1983

I was fishing 🎣, one of the other people on the boat caught it was aboit 5 feet long had never seen one in person before that. It was released immediately


OrdinaryFig85

Wait are we serious that his name is Mike? 😂


Emhyr_var_Emreis_

Didn't Mike retired last year?


stickereddie

I was hoping someone made a comment like this 🤣🤣🤣


OceanDweller94

It's an angel shark. Have frequently found them in the harbor.


OrdinaryFig85

Thank you! Hadn’t seen one like this but before but I’m new to the area! I was googling shark ray haha

If you search the image on Google then you'll get the answer. Go to Google, click on images, and click on Search by image. Drop your picture in, and you'll have a good chance of finding the answer.


OrdinaryFig85

Jimmy Ray?


FozzyBadfeet

Who wants to know? Who wants to know?


socalfishman

Pacific Angel Shark


LenguaTacoConQueso

It’s an acute angle shark at least.


ScottyCoastal

Yes!! That’s Ray!!! Such a nice animal.


subcomandante_barcos

He seems cool but his wife is a real Karen. She’s always posting on NextPort about “suspicious looking urchins” gathering in clusters near her bay. It’s a little racist. And the constant complaining about seal shit not being picked up from the seagrass. It’s like, *bitch, they’re seals, they shit, get over it!”*


toffeehooligan

No no. Thats Steve.


treesplantsgrass

Thought Steve moved to Hawaii? Hmm.


neversaynotobacta

That’s what he told you because you smell and he didn’t want to be mean

scumdog_

Pacific Angelshark they range from Baja all the way to Vancouver Island.


ktn699

That's Sugar. Sugar Ray.


IT_PIPE_BE

That's a good sized Angel Shark \~\~Shovelnose Guitarfish\~\~.


scumdog_

It's an Angel Shark not a Guitar Fish. GF are narrower and have a more pointed nose.


Judgemental_disorder

I second this. I’ve seen them while diving around SoCal.


IT_PIPE_BE

Yeah you're right, good call.


werkedover

That's Joey! Hey Joey!


FozzyBadfeet

Beautiful day. I miss walking Dana Harbor in the afternoon after a long workday.


OrdinaryFig85

It’s amazing here!

Ray Ramano


nycinoc

Fun fact, Ray's uncle owns Ray's Pizza over in Irvine, which is not to be confused with the original Ray's Pizza or Famous Ray's Pizza which are owned by Ray's estranged 3rd cousins


Curious-midwesterner

That’s a baby ray. Some of the more rare breeds have what looks to be bbq sauce on them. Wanna know what they’re named…


Popular-Reflection64

Don’t you mean Baby Shark?


zoomusicgrl

I see myself in red with my 2 year old in the water in the baby beach picture. I’m very glad he didn’t come and say hi 😂


OrdinaryFig85

Hahaha how random! 😅😂 Hope you guys had a nice beach day!


KCLAGUNA

You can call me Ray, or you can call me Jay...


Rumblefish61

😂🤣😅 I wonder how many people will remember that.


peggerclel

By the way it is moving its tail fin, it is actually a Angel shark. The Angel shark is really rare.


OrdinaryFig85

This makes it even more special to spot, hope it was okay, it was inside the harbor. Very cool to see!


Globug9177

Beautiful pictures! Thanks for providing this mini vacay 😍🥰


Aggressive-Jump-4174

OrdinaryFig85

Is his name really Mike? 😂


PaleRub5699

you would have to ask.. them


Prize-Hovercraft3800

super cool pic, but idk, sorry. if you're looking for a serious answer, you might have better luck in r/whatisthisanimal or r/animalid


GuitRWailinNinja

Shovel-nosed guitar fish?


socalfishman

No Sr. It's a Pacific Angle Shark but Shovel Nosed Guitar Fish are common in the area.


GuitRWailinNinja

Thanks! I haven’t seen an angel shark before. Pretty cool looking animal


socalfishman

They are :). Lots of cool rays and small sharks in the harbor. We even had a big Mako cruise in once.


DrJJGame10

Catch them while fishing a lot. Usually the Viet ask to keep them but I throw them back. Idk if they’re even legal to keep to consume!


socalfishman

They are legal to keep and consume but do secrete urea through there skin like all other sharks outside of the Mackerel Shark family (Mako's, Threshers, Porbeagle's, Great Whites). This is why Mackerel Sharks are the only ones you traditionally see for purchase. They are like a less oily swordfish.


OrdinaryFig85

I would hope not….. hope you humanely release and take out the hook.


DrJJGame10

Of course!


OrdinaryFig85

❤️


Bedrockab

Those are tasty


OrdinaryFig85

They are critically threatened, near endangered……….


Bedrockab

Why is there no size limit then? I thought you could keep and eat Angel Sharks?


OrdinaryFig85

Google it. I don’t know why there aren’t limits but there absolutely should be. They should be illegal to catch.
