Crays

 Went diving both yesterday morning and this morning off beach to see if there was any crays around the Cottelsoe area.

Have had some success in past.

 

Yesterday at some usual ground was a bit murky still managed to find a few. Albeit my coordination being appalling. Lost a few within grasp plus I needed the long snare.

 

There were a few whites about also. Crays were very deep under ledges with no intention of being relocated. Quite a few kakkas yesterday. Managed one white cray not soft but not completely firm.

 

Saw a very large tailor apporox 750/800 small dhufish approx 400. Also

 

Dived slightly further north of yesterday's dive for a grand total of one this morning. A few crays around but different ground. Crays all very deep even with long snare was difficult to reach. Did not see any whites.

 

Some small baldies no bigger than 200 mooching about. Both dives many any blue drummer fish being territorial. 

 

Have set challenge to not dive same location more than once for this cray season

What's the reason for one visit only

Is this to force yourself to find perhaps greener pastures or for conservation of cray stocks.

 A bit of both. I think its good to find new ground so that the same spot or spots dont cop a hammering. Also though I like the exlloring side of things too. Finding new ground gives more options too
