This footage was filmed on the 21/12/2014 over the course of 1 dive. The visibility for this dive was very poor (about a foot) but I managed to bring in a good haul. During this dive I caught my biggest crayfish yet! weighing in at 6.5 lbs. Apologies for the video quality, as I say the conditions weren't the greatest.

This is some footage I had from the 2013-'14 dive season. Was filmed on Pania reef in Hawke Bay. It's not often that you see such good visibility in the Bay so we definitely enjoyed this dive! Song: Phoenix Rising by Bluetech

One of the most beautiful and secluded spots in the world.
Cool video, Wondering how far offshore you have too go to find albacore?
waimarama ??? is it a singluar rock in the middle of the sand
This was as boring as watching grass grow ,ooh I'm sorry , watching grass grow is waaay more exciting , hmmm ?? Yeh without a doubt . GUYS YOU MISSED YOUR CALLING IN LIFE , DONT KNOW WHAT IT IS BUT IT SURE AIN'T GOT ANYTHING THE FUCK TO DO WITH THE MINDLESS EXERCISE I JUST WITNESSED . I KNOW WHY DONT YOU HAND FEED UUUH ,HMMM GREAT WHITES YEAH THAT WOULD WORK .
Meke cuz
He is so still...
where
Don't tell this rapist
Any spots worth checking out brother even for kina off the rock pozzies
We’re about on coromandel please
Wicked bro how deep were you !!
About 12 meters deep at this rock. I've free dived it a few times in the past too.
Looks like the Sounds?
been raped at fantail
98% undersize on the Coromandel. Leave them alone
They grow smaller and live longer, it's like that through the entire gulf, which is why once they're cleaned out they don't come back. People wouldn't rape and pillage if they lowered the sizing in the hauraki gulf/coromandel because the takings wouldn't be out of spite against the government. However majority have already been taken
4 Years old, but good to see some paua on the coromandel thought they were cleaned out!
You gotta be cray cray reaching your hand into that crayfested craynest ;)
Awsome bro
only in nz paradise
In south africa its also called lobster
Awesome channel mate. I’m also in Napier. We went trailing for albies last weekend. Gave you a sub. Please check out my channel too.
this is lobster..can grow over 8 inch call lobster.. under 6 inch when mature call crayfish..
by the way deffrent country ..deffrent name..in borneo we call them dragon prawn..
Chur where about u from in Hastings
tanks.....wish it was forbiden........
cant believe the amount of silt on the bottom, gotta be pumped out from all your big rivers in nz ahy.
Yeah our rivers here do a lot of damage to the visibility. The dive you're seeing here is one of the better days, some days the visibility can get as lower than half a metre. The area of NZ I live in, Hawkes Bay, is one of the worst for silt as we have many huge rivers pumping it into the bay. Any amount of rain and the visibility is ruined. Can be fun at times though 'cause you really have to work to get your crays, especially when you can't see them.
Hawkes Bay is commonly referred to as mud town.
Love this video thanks for sharing
Love this video thanks for sharing
Those are not Crayfish...Those are Lobsters. I guess they call them "Crayfish" in Australia though...weird. Crayfish are freshwater only in the rest of the world.
+surgeyX I live in New Zealand mate, says so in the title. You are right in some aspects, they are a specific species of lobster called spiny rock lobster. Here in New Zealand they are more commonly know as Crayfish though. We also have freshwater crayfish here, they are called koura.
+Bare Ambition Oy Moit Gday dyaReckon? I loik to listen to Russel Crowe!!
+surgeyX it's crayfish lobster and crayfish are different species but same genus. nothing to do with foreign terms lol.
surgeyX they're crayfish. Crays are very common here rather than lobster.
They are crayfish, we go diving for them every summer!
I recently bought one of those bags that you used, the man I bought it from said it would be pretty useless for crays, since they would cut through the mesh at the bottom. Has yours been good? Is it suitable for crays? Thanks
+Patrick Western Hey Patrick, I received this bag second hand about 6 years ago. Honestly crays is all I use it for and it's still going strong to this day. So to answer your question it is a very good bag for crays (as good if not better than anything on the market for crays) as long as you look after it and wash it thoroughly after your dive. Letting the salt water sit on the bag for long periods of time is not good for it and will weaken the material.
Thanks, mate. :)
These bags are the best for crays, you have to wash them well and they don’t last forever, but the spring loaded door is the easiest way to collect them. You can get a good one for around $50, and the crays won’t cut through the mesh.
That's cool! Those Crayfish look very similar to the Spiny Lobster we catch.
lol funny comments by people that don't know there shit. ..great vid bro...we dive mahia hard
+Logan Yeah man, you can't take it to heart, you've got to educate the people. Thanks for the complement. I've never dived in Mahia definitely one for the bucket list. How are the cray numbers there anyway.
put it this way we have been getting our limits in rock pools 2 meters deep ..the place is amazing and one side is always clean and flat. definitely spend some time there if you can!
lol funny comments by people that don't know there shit. ..great vid bro...we dive mahia hard
Hi mate, how deep were you diving at the spot?Cheers. Nice video!
surprice price If my memory serves me right I think this was in about 12 meters of water. Thanks for the support!
Thanks mate, by the way nice music in the video as well : )
Check out the re upload of this video in 1080 HD quality here: tinyurl.com/ofl4ok5
Perfect good catch, just enough for a feed wicked spit mate. Great tracks also. Just subscribed Good channel.
There is a crab
*six
i think i saw a crab
Zion Slavich Good eyes! Crabs are definitely not a rare occurrence to see while diving.
I didn't think you were allowed to use tanks to get crays?
illbehaviour76nz You sure are allowed to catch crays on tanks. You might be mistaking it with paua, they cannot be caught on tanks.
Awsome effort with the crappy vis ! And cudos on a pb !
Thanks for the support
nice dive with good music thanks for sharing
Thanks for enjoying
is that north of motunau island ?
Nah mate, this video was filmed north of Waipatiki. The same place that my first video was filmed - Big Crayfish, even caught these crays on the same rock!
Cool vid
Nice to see someone not fill the bag for the sake of it. Good effort!! What an amazing spot
great respect bro
Awesome vid! Great viz and great footage...
Ahh we saw a load of pots on the spot and thought it must have some bugs on it. Only to discover when we got down most of the pots were old and forgotten. Soo thankfully the spot hadn't been pillaged by the potters which was amazing because when we got down there we were faced with a lot of crays. =)
Awesome man thats what we would have done too. Good respect for the sea and resources. Did u just stumble across that area while diving at another spot?
I know the thing is we had been to the exact same spot a couple of days before and loaded up, only to find when we got home that we hadn't turned the camera on. So this time around we went easy on the crays and only took enough. Basically we treated it as a scenic dive and mucked around a lot feeding the fish (which I cut out of the video) and admiring the conditions and crays which we is a lucky find in this area of New Zealand. :p
This should have only been a 5min dive. @ 8:41 therz a nice flat rock with a big boy just sitting behind the pack as usual. was hoping it was going to be pulled out
Didn't you see their comment saying they'd loaded up here couple days earlier.... They're sharing the splendid views... Respect! Don't ALWAYS have to take every big one, as quick as you can, just Caz they're there... Guess some people can't help themselves
Also it pays to leave the big ones and the nest won’t leave the rock, look after ya spots and they’ll be there for ever until some one rapes it
Nah. Its north of Waipatiki :p
Where is this? Cape?
