Fish hates man....loves man vid

Post by mat »

Popped down to flinders for some freediving looking for some Blue Devil Fish that I'd seen earlier but instead i was distracted by this blue leatherjacket....and played a game of confidence and curiosity with him to get him close. A big blue throated Wrasse .....his companion was a bit on the shy side but after an hour came around to say hi..I couldn't find those Blue Devil Fish...will try again sometime.

nice vid :thumbsup: couldnt help thinking that the LJ looked like bubba from forrest gump. the way its mouth was hanging open :) did you have zoom on that camera or were you able to get super close? I've had LJ's eat out of my hand before but never been that close to a bluethroat.

Nice video & appropriate sound track. The lips on the LJ look like it does want to kiss you.
The Blue Devils are a lot more elusive and from my experience are usually in deeper water.
