Recorded as part of a scientific research project conducted by the Department of Fisheries in collaboration with the University of Western Australia and CSIRO, this project aimed to describe and compare fish assemblages of the upper slope (100-600 m) along the west and north coasts of Western Australia. The footage was collected from two research surveys in March and November 2010, onboard the Research Vessel Naturaliste. A total 150 stereo-Baited Remote Underwater Videos were deployed, recording a total of 1358 fish from 78 different species. The number of species and total numbers of individual fish decreased with depth. Fish assemblages at 200 m were very different from fish assemblages at 400 and 500 m which were more alike. As depth increased the fish assemblage was made up of a variety of different sharks and rays.

Excellent Video ! Beautiful footage. I'm amazed how little bait you need to attract these species at those depths

Excellent, hubbie has fished there and got some nice snapper. Fantastic to see what is actually in the depths of the ocean, those 6 gill sharks are the really prehistoric ones I think, quite rare as well.

Love it! So interesting to see what is down at those depths straight out from Pert/Rotto. Also interested in what the Rv Naturaliste gets up to and where they go insearch of more research. I keep track of the Rv Naturaliste with the iphone app Marine Traffic . Right at this moment they are down off Margerate River.

Amazing footage, hope you post more of it. Any chance you could drop some of those cameras on the Derwent wreck? Always wanted to see what it looks like. Cheers

They identify it as a short sunfish/Mola ramsayi (now considered synonymous with Mola alexandrini). The ocean sunfish/Mola mola has a more scalloped rudder on back end of the body.

Is there a way I can view live cam feeds?

You can View live feed from a security camera mounted in a water proof housing to a laptop in your boat on the surface via PoE (Power over Ethernet) I do this for a hobby Security camera quality can go up to 4K video

Do u guys now that pretty much all the lakes in Stirling Western Australia have invasive European carp in them and I have seen many big ones about 60 - 70 cm and I think there might be some carp in the swan river

Go to Herdsman lake in Perth! We have caught huge carp and goldfish there!
