Tranny bubbles

what is the problem here, I go to check my tranny and I see the dip stick is covered with air bubbles in the fluid what could be the problem?
Tranny has the proper fluid and levels as per amount I have added in the past. Did a tranny fliud change last year, thinking about doing a redline fluid change over soon. Any suggestions?

From: Back where I started...
Typically fluid aeration (sp?) occurs when the fluid level is incorrect, causing cavitation, and therefore, bubbles. Might want to double-triple check it again...
