Here are some pictures taken by Mark Davidson on the same dives we were on, featuring fish we saw. Our trip began in the northern part of the Reef at Cod Hole and progressed south back to
Norman Reef off Cairns. The Cod feeding was memorable with one of the dive instructors feeding a huge Potato Cod while several other cod and a swarm of Red Bass tried to grad the scraps. Steve's Bommie is one of
the best sites we've dived.
