Dive #529 - Finn Beach - 21 January 2022 (Dive 4 of 2022)

Back again to look for lumpsuckers, but without Bel the Lumpsucker Whisperer, we only found 3 (I know, dissapointing, right? ;-) ). One was very, very pregnant. It looked uncomfortable. I also found 2 little red octos.

We wandered way far right.
