Victorian state titles day 1, Cats Bay, Phillip Island.

It seems the apprentice has become the master! Watto just passing Muz by 1 fish! It’s going to be a close battle tomorrow as Murray won’t be giving up easily.
26 divers signed on with 2 SA divers gracing us with their presence, and Geelong Freedivers also had representatives.
All divers were met with flat seas with Vis around the 8m mark with a bit of haze. The tide was running out all day which meant a hard slog back to sign off for those adventurous folk who swam all the way to the nobbies. Fish were sparse but patchy with a good area producing a few species at a time. There were plenty of sweep and zebra fish swimming around as well as the man eater dusky morwong, thankfully some divers brought in some fine specimens, no doubt saving a life in the future.
Many divers gave reports of sharks cruising around, Blake reported a Thresher shark out at the nobbies while Dave reported a BIG Seven Gill shark giving his fins a taste (his wetsuit may need a clean).
Kim and Dave cut it close signing off with 2 minutes to spare. 2 other divers were DQed for lateness.
All in all it seemed everyone had a fun dive and are ready for tomorrow’s dive at cape schanck. We hope to see you all there. The day 1 scores are as follows

Nathan Watson 11 species 1212.7pts 100%
Murray Petersen 10 species 1127.7pts 92.99%
Blake Riddle 10 species 1108.55pts
Kim Adair 9 species 1019.45pts 84.06%
Mitch Kornberg 9 species 1005.8pts 82.93%
Marcus Dorfstatter 9 species 1002.55pts 82.67%
Dave Scholefield 9 species 999.6pts
Chris Rogers 8 species 930.1pts 76.69%
Dean Riddle 8 species 874pts 72.07%
Spencer Gubbins 7 species 753.5pts 62.13%
Cam Fitzpatrick 6 species 669.55pts 55.21%
Bob Manning 6 species 653.75pts 53.90%
Malcome 6 species 653.15pts

Jarvis Espie 5 species 542.3pts 44.71%
Timmy Fitzpatrick 5 species 525.95pts 43.29%

Day 2 of the Victorian state titles was held today at Cape Schanck with 23 divers signing on.
Conditions were as predicted, strong easterly winds with a slight swell. This allowed divers to dive either side of the point which allowed everyone to spread out. Visibility was the same in most areas, around 10m~
Normality was restored with Muz winning the day with 16 species, well a head of Kim with 13 species, Watto followed closely behind with 12 fish.
Mitch learnt the hard way as to why divers take spare rubbers, he was out of the water by 11:25. He still managed to pull in 10 species which is a solid effort.
There were a few solid crayfish pulled up too
At the end of the day there were smiles all round capping off a sold 2 days of diving.
Thank you to everyone who helped organise the weekend both prior and in the day, many people don’t understand the effort that goes into these big events. Top job, it all ran smoothly.

The results for day 2 are as follows:

Murray Petersen (16 fish) 1872.05pts
Kim Adair (13 fish) 1504.85pts
Nathan Watson (12 fish) 1358.15pts
Dave Scholefield (11 fish) 1235.05pts
Mitchell Kornberg (10 fish) 1131.15pts

Jarvis Espie (7 fish) 765.55pts
Spencer Gubbins (7 fish) 754.5pts
Joseph Bednarek (6 fish) 675.1pts
