· Check conditions – before heading out including wind conditions and swells. Visit www.beachsafe.org.au for up to date reports.
· Observe first, fish later – identify the best place to safely enter the water and look for where the waves are consistently breaking to ensure you avoid this area when fishing.
Keeping an eye on the weather since early morning, the downpour hammering on the roof at work around 2pm had me thinking this would be anyone’s guess regarding viz at tonight’s proposed site and I quickly thought-up a river site in reserve. Thankfully my hedging bets on the inside of the Jervoise Bay harbour being secluded enough from the weather having done a reckie a few weeks earlier during a similar crap spell, all paid off.
Despite less than 5m viz no one was complaining and the exBHP Jetty turned up trumps again this Wednesday. Hiding under a pipe at the start was a shy Giant Australian Cuttlefish who just wouldn’t come out and show us its full size but was probably half grown. Clouds of Toadies dominate the shallows and what becomes very evident before too long are the hordes and hordes of Blue Swimming Crabs everywhere. Forget the river they’re all down here! And you can’t touch em – Ha!
Ever wondered what its like to zoom around the ocean floor with an underwater scooter?
One of the biggest but mostly unrecognised benefits of diving with a scooter is the lack of air you use.
It just shows how the effort of diving really makes you work out... I know by now you are all saying “Wow so that’s how Lee keeps in such awesome shape!” (Round is a shape ok?)
