Thanks Mike, that is an excellent lead. I do sometimes see bits of
crayfish shell along the creek. In NSW we call them yabbies, I think
in Victoria they are called lobbies and are served up in posh
restaurants.
So next time I throw in a hydrophone I guess I should also throw in a
piece of meat on a string, and see if I can catch one of these
mystery critters!
