Catch a crayfish if you can

The weigh-in will be in Scottburgh.

HIBISCUS Underwater Club’s ‘Crayfish Comp’ takes place this Saturday, September 13.

The exciting competition is open to all divers and the first 40 entries will get a T-shirt. Divers can dive anywhere between Durban and Port Edward on the day.

The weigh-in will be at the Scottburgh Country Club at 12.30pm and a valid licence needs to be presented. Divers will donate their catch to the braai, so bring your family and enjoy a great day out. First prize, for the biggest crayfish, will be a wetsuit plus many other fantastic prizes.
