I know that I'm not the only one who enjoys giving the swan River blueys a crack over summer.

Been getting some absolute thumpers lately at my usual spots...

Feel free to post your pics.

so that reminds me of my question.
I am wanting to snorkel for them and was told they are always in 1m or 3m or 2.15m or something and a certain time in summer is best.
Has been really sporadic when i have used dropnets off the jetty.

anybody with tips?

Sorry, no tips from me. I just wanted to say I'm glad that other pic got taken down...

Definitely some big ones around....came across this guy just a few days ago while night diving in the river.



By far the biggest swimmer crab I have ever seen and the video doesn't do it justice.

Mark, they are out there....the best ones we've seen (been diving every second day) have been deep but there have been plenty within 3-4 metres, which is easy without scuba.

Been seeing lots of them mating and seen heaps of females carrying eggs.
