Cray Fish Thermidore

We cooked the cray in this rich cheesy sauce.  Pretty delicious but enough calories in here to last a solid year or two I reckon.

Makara Free Diving

We  took off to Makara this afternoon to make the most of the southerlies with a cray dive.  After a small walk along the coast we jumped in and begun the hunt, each branching off in separate directions.  It took me a solid half hour before I found my first bug but it was a good sized one and fairly basic to wrangle into my catch bag so I was happy.  After the first one was on the board I found quite a few more in quick succession and brought my total to five before I'd had enough and headed in to shore to change.  About 15 minutes later Tom and Max returned and although they only had a couple, Max had snagged a monster which probably weighed in at about 2.5 kg.  So we loaded up and headed home to cook up a feast of snapper which we caught yesterday, on the menu tomorrow: Crayfish
