swan river visibility

Hey guys,

has anyone done any night diving in the swan in recent weeks?

I was keen to head down to bicton baths or the combe and try catch some prawns but know there has been issues with the vis due to the ongoing dredging. i know about 8 weeks ago is was aweful.

your help is much appreciated

thanks

 Bicton baths doubt you could even see 2ft infront of you but that didnt stop bunch of divers going down anyways desperate for the prawns.

Mate went diving Wed night and it was near the Coombe and vis was a whole lot better that it has been for ages so if you are used to the river vis it is pretty good at the moment

Bicton baths last week was horrible, you know its bad when you can't see your buddy but you can hear them haha! But i still got a feed of prawns. Other spots round the river have been a whole lot better.
