Tiwi Pearl & House Boat Wreck Underwater | Moreton Bay, Rous Channel, Harry Atkinson Artificial Reef

I put the underwater drone down on the Tiwi Pearl wreck and other structures at Harry Atkinson artificial reef, Moreton Bay before checking out the known house boat wreck on the western side of Peel Island. I finish the day off checking out some natural structure in the Rous Channel. Fish species include Gold Spotted cod, Black Spot Tuskfish aka Blue Bone, Morwong aka Slatey Bream, Bream, Shovelnose Ray, QLD Groper and more. Filmed using the Fifish V6 underwater drone available from underwater.com.au/shop/fifish...

Great footage, mate, the invention of Spot lock on the electric engine.these days. Hopefully, we'll stop all the anchors and ropes on those beautiful wrecks.

Hey greg years ago i was told that the house boat was purchased from Russell island by a group of guys that tried to get it up to tinny creek but cracked the hull on way over which filled up with water and thats as far as it got , i also believe that there is 4 pieces to this scatted in the surrounding area 😉 as for the harry the pipes are scatted far and wide now from being dragged by boat anchors not in one clump like when first dropped in 👍

[@Side85Winder]

People need to learn to rig their anchor properly so it comes out backwards when it gets caught on reef.
I don't have this issue so much where I fish but I use a grapnel anchor. The attachment rope goes to where all the claws join in the middle. The chain is heavy duty zip tied up the shaft to the end. If it hooks a reef the zip ties brake and the anchor comes out backwards. Most style anchors can be rigged like this to come out backwards when caught.

[@gregswickedfishing]

one of the original owners contacted me about the houseboat. It sank and drifted away from it's original location never to be found again. So the one we all think is the houseboat is actually not it but another older mono hull vessel.

[@alfbittner6489]

Good stuff Greg, all my old haunts in the bay. Can you view what the drone is videoing real time, what is a unit like that worth.

[@gregswickedfishing]

Thanks mate. Yes it in real time and they're around $2800 mate. Available at Underwater Australasia

[@rowdskawasaki9922]

Hey mate what brand of sounder are you running

[@gregswickedfishing]

I run furuno for conventional 2d sounding. The images used in that vid come from a mates Lowrance side scan

[@barrett4386]

'Promosm'

[@FIRSTDROPFISHING]

great footage as always. spewing you showed everyone where marks are that its taken us fishos years to find :(

[@ew9165]

The places he has shown are probably the most well known fishing spots in the bay. Takes seconds to find on google not years bud. I assume thats why he chose those areas

[@scottyzfishing5660]

Mate those marks are all well known and have been for years can even find them on the net .

[@chillz47]

You’re taking the piss surely

[@bustedoff6038]

who hasn't heard of Harry atkinsons reef?

[@n5688434]

He doesnt share marks ship racks that are not known
