Buddy: Simon, Ned - Dive La Trobe
Entered by jumping off side of new diver's ramp - actual ramp was too crowded. Spider crabs were marching, but not mounding. Lots and lots of spider crabs. But also lots of crab pots and chicken carcasses. So much chicken ! Yuck.
Also saw a fiddler ray (banjoshark), big stingray, lots of little stingrays, pipe fish, leatherjackets (feeding on chicken). Lots of moulting crabs. Stingray was eating a crab !
Excellent dive, very calm.... More
