The Fish Sound Project Blog

​The ocean is full of intriguing sounds! Whales, seals, wind, rain, boats are all important contributors to the ocean soundscape. But did you know that many fishes also make sounds? A team of scientists is on a journey to discover the sounds produced by the coastal fishes off British Columbia, Canada.

Exploratory dive at Ogden Point

​The breakwater at Ogden Point is a very famous diving spot in Victoria. Many tourists and locals dive there to enjoy the abundant and diverse marine life. Many different species of fish including five different species of rockfish, sculpins and lingcods. Potentially a great spot to deploy our instruments and record fish sounds. I came there with the Trident to see by myself and I was not disappointed. Big schools of beautiful striped perch, small lingcods and river otters. Definitely a great spot for us. I was amazed to see that the fish didn’t seem to be bothered at all by the Trident.
