A single shore entry night dive by Gary and Chris of 151 minutes. Maximum depth 6.2 m, 22C water temperature and up to 4 m viz.
With storms and rain imminent and the river profiler digging up the river bottom we chose to dive Fish Cage. The numbers of Unidentia sp. were high...a come-back? Finding Goniodoridella sp. 6 was a nice find. Cratena lineata seems to be making a come-back as well.
