A dive trip i finally edited today
Enjoy!!
So did that “cray” in the beginning shots find its way onto the menu?
Very cool. I'd love to dive there one day. Looks like there's lots of black coral in the first few dives.
I find that hard to watch. Fiordland should be off limits to the taking of crayfish and other species, both recreationally and commercially. This is one place in NZ where we could leave the sea life alone and stop stuffing them into fish bins. I know about the other reserves around NZ, but down there it's different and should be saved from exploitation.
My wife and I really enjoyed that!
We had never seen footage of Crayfish underwater before.
It’s a majic place down there when you get the weather right.
Cool vid. what are you using to film it? gopro?Quote:

Wasn’t me doing the diving I was just editing it together for a mate.
Filmed on my dirty old GoPro 3
Heaps of black coral in places and is defiantly on my to do list to go for a dive there!!
It is probably the best managed crayfishery in the country (now)Quote:

That way I dont have to ascend with the bag dangling or catching in my kit or legs....and it gives you an ascent line and tells your boat person that your on your way up and where.
Smart idea, always use one when scallop diving, tells the boats where you are and your not using your BCD as an aid. My old dive supervisor told me of a story that he had to be a expert witness to. A husband and wife team who had used their BCD's to get to the surface. Once on the surface the wife's catch bag caught on her BCD and down she went, husband was out of air and couldn't help her. Tragic! On my boat you have to have 500psi (35Bar) left when you have finished your dive because of this and as well it might be handy to recover a stuck anchor.
Yeah ...bad idea to use a bcd as an ascent aid
Once you see surgical emphysema from being bent you'll know why
