Spent Christmas at port MacDonnell
Conditions were poor for any offshore spearing
Instead went to the freshwater ponds , bellow is a video of the one and only freshwater Cray that I found.
Cray was released unharmed

Just buy the housing off the go-pro website. RRP 70$ but I searched for a coupon and got it for 50 delivered!

you will notice a huge difference once you get the flat lens. It's so much better. Good luck with the filming. Make sure you hold on tight to the bloody thing. I'm one of the ones who's lost one to the ocean. I've done Piccaninnie Ponds before and loved it. Where were you?

Yeh I plan to make up a leash, Hopefully get some spearing videos soon.
That was at Ewens Ponds,Best thing about the Freshwater ponds is 40 meter vis ! and Not having to wash the gear after. ! :P
If only spearing in the ocean was that easy.

Last minute search saw me ordering the dive housing from

unfortunately this was the last one left.

I couldn't wait for the postage from the UK.

Haha it would be a dream to have that in Victorian salt water
