Josh Jensen and the Undersea Productions team visited Cod Hole back in 2011 to survey the damage from Cyclone Yasi. Despite some loss of coral in the shallows, they found the reef off the Northwestern coast of Australia to be surpringly healthy — and the Potato Cod as huge as ever.

During this particular dive, Josh was also able to record mating behaviour between the cod. According to the description of the video, he has never witnessed this type of behavior over the course of 100 dives in the area.
