todays dive
Submitted by Paul G on Sun, 2010-11-28 16:09
Headed out from ocean reef today for a dive with the guys from the MAAC club .Viz was great 8-15m and weather was good once the wind dropped.Fist dive on the inside of the bank gave up 9 size ,and the next dive on the back edge filled our bag .We tossed 11 size back .Plenty of crays in the right holes.A bit of fish life dhuie and bb's and a nice king george.Was a good day to be out as its bloody hot back on the mainland.

they were a bit funny today.
they were a bit funny today. some were flighty as and others were just stupidly suicidal. couldnt be stuffed getting belted by the easterlies, so just went straight west of hillaries. managed 9 on the 1st dive then went down again for the extra 3. I came up with another 3 only using 50 bar and my buddy came up with another 5. chucked back the smaller ones and back at the ramp by 10.30

I think you're diving where I usually go, I heard from someone else diving the same ground that they were really flighty down there today.

yer they were but in the caves they were in numbers so you got 2-4 crays before they bolted.

Nice
Once again you've come up trumps. Great to see you getting into them. Man I miss Perth when I see your underwater posts and read the cray reports.
The best reason for doing what's right today is tomorrow.

again.
you've done it again paul =)
we did alright, getting our bag, but its hard work when you blow a globe on your dive torch. =( i couldnt see a thing in some of the caves.
definately as dumper said, some very aggresive, and basically walked into the loop. others were very flighty, and had to be " persuaded " to come out and play!! nothing like a swipe and grab!!

Nice one Paul and team.
Nice one Paul and team. Like the cave shot!
Found a new spot behind GI on Sunday and picked up 12 nice whites to compliment 40 Abs. 10 Squid in 15 minutes and in the driveway by 1pm. A quick but productive day.
