If youve got a boat mate ,
If youve got a boat mate , does it matter where u launch ? You have the whole estuary at your disposal. Been plenty around so it shouldn't be too hard. They will be everywhere, maybe try deeper water if the sun is up. Good luck

Crabbing in Mandurah
Hi Redemperor000,
Launch atthe Coodanup boat ramp (Norton ave) follow the signs and markers out of the river and into the estuary, once past all of the markers (stay within as it can be shallow) headover to the east, drop your nets about 300 metres from the eastern bank (use the large paddock with no trees as a guide) you can also go close in and scoop in this area you will do well.
Good luck
