- How to catch Eastern Rock Lobsters in Sydney and NSW. Spearfishing and freediving for crays in Australia.
In this video i show you guys where to find crayfish / lobster. I figured it would be easier for me to just show a heap of footage of catching crays which will give you an idea on how to find green crays in Sydney, NSW Australia.
Has this video helped you to get onto crays?

All fish were of legal size and were speared for consumption, I have a NSW Fishing Licence and abide by catch size limits, daily takes and no fish zones. Over the past 5 years now I have made the commitment to no longer buy fish, so I only eat the fish i catch. Spearfishing is the most sustainable form of fishing on the planet, it is also the most environmentally friendly form of fishing.
The DPI states a combination of 2 Eastern Rock Lobsters or Southern Lobsters per day per person.

Funny story , last time I was down your way I was diving for crays I was bitten by a baby wobbegong the size of a flathead
I completely forgot to mention Wobbies haha always causing dramas
@@WetMammal don’t forget about them eels 🐍
@@markjvairy Can confirm the eels bite when pissed off as well🤣
@Anderson Thomas too right , I dived commercially for abalone and sea urchin for 12 years , wobbegongs where always my biggest thing I worried about , some very close calls 😳
@@markjvairy brother could you please elaborate on the kinds of dramas you have?
Stories would be amazing, I am super interested.
I have had several super aggressive interactions with them over the years - anyone I tell just laughs and says “wobbegongs are harmless though” 😂
Going back to check out some of this old videos and these educational videos you did were, I think, some of the best Australian spearfishing content released last year. Good work mate.
Thanks man really appreciate that!
I notice some comments on wobs! I’m an old fart, 76, that reluctantly gave up diving and surfing last year. I dived a lot in the early 70’s from Newcastle north. Wobs were fair game then and there was a fish shop in the Newcastle region that would buy wobs from us as they weren’t protected then. The guys missus was an absolute wizard with a knife and could cut dozens of flathead fillets from a wob, and battered up the usual customers never knew the were eating shark!
Haha man i think most creatures are fair game if they are sustainable the drama with wobbies would be their vulnerability to over fishing specifically spearfishing.
Wonder what their mercury content is too.
But i dont doubt they would be delicious eating
@@WetMammal We never thought about mercury content in fish until the ‘90s. We knew wobbies would bite if annoyed and not let go! They can also bite their own tail and would fuck up your you beaut 316 stainless spear up by wrapping their tail around it if you were dumb enough to spear them.
We used smokies on them!
A fellow spearo had hundreds of 303 ex army blanks and we would araldite up where the projectile normally was to make them water tight! The concussion killed them, no need for a projectile. On concussion, I killed a wobbie in a cave up near Forster and the concussion was bloody terrible. Blew the air out of my lungs and buggered my eardrums! Finished the diving for that day and left me with a bugger of a headache! Ah, the stupid shit you do as a young bloke!
Great informative video. My son and I are just staring to spearfish and are keen on crays too. Your vid will help significantly, I expect! Thanks
Thank you! I made this video for that precise reason, you will have to check out the latest video for the best lobster recipe on the planet!
Great video mate
Thanks man
Thanks for the solid video, sold all my gear when I moved away from the beach and loving it again now I'm back. I have seemingly forgotten some tricks n this jogged my memory, thank you, happy eating!
No worries and thank you for taking the time to comment thats awesome hopefully you are back onto the tasty tasty lobsters!
Awesome stuff! If you're after more video ideas I'd love to see one on sharks, just generally. Your opinions/philosophy on them, close calls, anything you've learnt/reckon :) I've only just started spearing in the last few months and had my first run in with a 2m bronzie this morning. I'm curious on how common this is, and how worried I should be about spearing with them around (should I try scare it off, should I not be too worried, should I just get out of the water when i see one? etc). Cheers mate, loving your content and audio is sounding mint now too :)
Hey Brendan, ill see what i can do :) have a fair amount of shark footage so lets try and make something happen 🤙🏼 and big thanks
Cheers!! All good if not, but would be sick if you did 😊🤙
Ben waiting to find a video like this. I'm about to get into spearfishing, just saving up for the gear. Thanks heaps for sharing your knowledge.
I think a few people were there are some other good vids on this as well such as Harry Lindleys Cray vid
Sweet vid, nicely timed as just bought gloves and torch. Those ocean hunter gloves are very small fitting so recommend buy the xl, xxl for normal size hands.
On that note I tried your links in the description (clicked from mobile CZcams app) and they’re broken.
Thanks man, perfect hope you get some nice bugs.
Cheers for the heads up i believe ive just fixed it 🤙🏼
enjoyed the video, you are finding some big ones, and hectic nests well done. one thing when you measure it may just be in the video where you didnt measrue from the central horn due to swell etc, but you go from the tip of the central horn back to the end of the carapace. you may be letting some go you could keep... big crays match the mullet.
Hahaha cheers man, yeah you are right with the measuring though thanks for mentioning i should have used a cleaner clip showing the measure 🤙🏼
Greetings from Singapore...Wow this is as detailed as it gets! You provide uncommon insight!! Coming down to the South Coast for a couple of weeks end Aug later this year. . . . Hope to get some crays... and not wobbies!
Hello 🇸🇬 thanks man hopefully it helps and i wish you the best of luck down there for a couple of big fat juicy crays!
Incredibly informative! thank you
Thank you, I hope that helps 🤙🏼
Thanks for sharing your tips! Crays are like voodoo for me. I've never been able to find them, even when my buddies are diving right beside me and pulling crays out of every crack they look in. Looking forward to getting out and trying some of these tips.
No worries man, honestly once you have the eye for them it gets easier, over time itll become too easy. Let me know if you get onto any 🤙🏼
Thanks for the info 👍👍
No worries whatsoever 🤙🏼 thanks for watching
Was fizzing to watch as soon as I seen the title brother, some awesome info there, I've never bothered to invest in a torch before, always so many dark holes I leave without investigating due to the low light. New dive torch incoming🤙
Shot Sam!!
Awesome man! Yeah a torch is a game changer just helps you secure more crays quicker, thanks bro 🤙🏼
We have some pretty intense current here in SW Victoria. Down here I suggest tying a drop weight on the end of the float line. If you find a cray at the end of your breath leave the drop weight outside the front of the hole. I’ve lost some when the current drags me.
Yeah thats pretty common back in the UK too (although due to vis) haha
This is gonna help me so much next dive I am terrible at getting crays
I hope so man, youll have to tag me when you get one!
Great vid mate
Thanks man, hopefully it helps you onto some!
Great tips in here man! Got me keen to get out and get some crays again!! Yewww 🤙
Yeahh buddyyyyy get wet! Thanks man
great video. learned a lot from this one
Thanks bro! Hopefully it helps put you on some lobsters
Great video dude !
Thanks man hopefully it helps!
Great vid mate, i'm sure alot of the info will carry over for finding and catching their North Queensland relatives 🍻
Thanks man, hopefully it will, love a good tropical cray too
Great vid man so good clear footage
Thanks man i hope it helps :D
You forgot to mention the bottle opener on the gauge mate ! top vid
haha the most important part!
Sick vid heaps good. Keep it up 👍🏻
Cheers bro 🤙🏼🤙🏼
NICE EXPLANATION
Thank you :) i hope that helps you find Crays on your travel :)
Thank you u helped me heaps
Amazing glad it could help 🤙🏼
Any advice for catching cold water lobbies back in the Uk? Bit worried about there claws. Caught heaps of Crays in the Caribbean but they have a lot of escape routes so only had luck with a snare. Can never move quick enough to catch them by hand. We usually park boil them and finish them on the barbie, dries them out less. Great vid love your work!
Hey man, sorry for the long reply, lobsters in the uk i use my spear to get them to chop down on then use my hand to get around to the body and grab them :D
hey, i live in sydney and am considering getting into spearfishing. any tips for local spots/good areas, i know this I'm asking for sacred info but just some general spots would be much appreciated.
Hey man, i used to tell everyone to go to Little Bay until someone got eaten by a Great White there this year. Join the San Soucci Dolphins Spearfishing Club and they will help you grow with like minded people :)
@@WetMammal thanks heaps for the quick reply, I'll make sure I stay away from the Great White (:
Dude I feel you got super long arms. LOL
🤣🤣🤣
15:40 so in this clip I can see that you have your gun with you (nice leatherjacket btw), however I thought it was illegal in NSW to have both the gun and torch when diving? Or is it that you can carry them together, as long as you're not using them as the same time?
Yeah it is illegal to use a torch for spearfishing. Basically that means you cant use your speargun if you are using your torch. As long as you arent operating both at the same time its fine
Ah, makes sense. I dont have a torch and I've never gotten a cray and I fear that might be why, but I'm sixteen and I'm not sure if I want to spend that money for a good torch yet. What do you think, is it worth it?
i now know a decent amount amount of information about spearfishing for someones whose never seen the sea
Ahh, i hope you one day get to experience it, the ocean really is incredible
Footage is obviously from day diving mostly, do you prefer day or night diving for crays?
Yep your right there man saving the night footage 😉 i dont really have a preference for crays i get them easy enough in the day so no dramas. But night dives are a lot of fun
Great video, where did you get the measuring tool from?
from their actual website :D theyve got a range of tools just google rippa gauge lobster tool :D
Cool
I wouldn’t even tell a friend about a honey hole. They tell someone else eventually
Best kept secrets. To be fair my two biggest honey holes of all time 100+ crays in each are in WA and ive kept them to myself since discovery and thats 7 years now
The big honey hole in this video ive never taken anyone too but theres one fella in Vic i would share it with haha
Don’t boil me!
I’m still alive!
Iraq Lobster!
hahaha i instantly started reading that in Peter Griffins Voice hahaha
👍👍👍
Suck vid my dude! Love them lobster!🙌
Cheers man 🤙🏼
Never show cray holes to mates because they have mates too and so on and so forth
yeah depends on how much you can trust them haha
Dk what the question is but the answer will always be 69 👌
Take the ads off, clown.
And what do i get in return for buying thousands of dollars of video equipment, tens of hours put into filming, editing and uploading? Bills to pay man, if people paid for content i wouldnt have ads hey
Wet Mammal dw bro I understand, he the clown
