2011 - First Crays

With the swell still pumping yesterday near the West End of Rotto, North side was about the only option.

Highlight was a green back turtle resting under a ledge in 15m.  Only 2 crays for the dive was a little disappointing.

Oh well, our recon (fallback) dive last week would be used for our second dive as the SWer was pumping 20+ already.

Who needs to go deep! 5-7m produced the goods.

The rough trip back to the ramp was worth it and fresh baked cray for dinner was sensational.

Cheers Pete

Nice work Pete. Those results make me miss WA a whole lot more than I should. You are the go-to man for crays.

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:

n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or

n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.
