Any Mandurah Crabs Yet?

Hey all.

Just wondering if anyone has got a feed of crabs down Mandurah way lately?  I remember reading a report a couple of weeks back that there were heaps down there but not many sized ones.  Is it a bit easier to get a feed yet?  I'll be heading down anyway with a couple of mates so we'll see how we go.  I've never tried, but I thought I might take some snorkel gear with me this time and have a crack at diving for them?  Am I likely to have a better chance at that then using drop nets?

OK.  Thanks guys.  That's not too bad Duffman.  I'd be happy with 1 per net.  I guess I'll find out soon enough.  I'm pretty pumped.  I haven't been out in the boat for months.
