Our first haul was a little... sad...

|
But we did find some cool stuff... a lyre crab!
|
And some hydroids...
|
Dredge two went a little better.

We were quick to get most of the critters back into the water, keeping a few samples to identify and study in the lab.
|
The lab booty--Triopha!
|
So many spot prawns.
