Crays

Was a tad lumpy today and we didn't manage a full bag, but at least my mate from KL got a dive in and managed a few as well.

Some nice roaches there! no need to bag out with some monsters like that in the catch bag:) Would i be right in assuming some deeper water to get some daddies like that.

Couldnt do the annual 15/11 dive today best i could get was wednesday off work itchin to get out and hit up some old ground

very nice Alfred, I was just talking to your busy decky and got the low down, sounds like you guys had a very good start to the season. Hoepfully this wind vacates WA and we can all get into them.

There were 4 of us on board, Till, KC, Julie and myself.  Julie was in for the sights only and she did really well considering the conditions out there today.

We were in 35m.

Metro.

No more jumbos for me, can say I've got one and will let the rest off to breed.  Several females were around as well, which just wasted the precious bottom time.
