How longs a peice of string all depends where abouts in the swan if you go to blackwall reach you might need a fair bit of rope .CHEERS SHAG

Most crab grounds are 4-12m but deeper water like Mossy Bay & Blackwall Reach is 20m so atleast 23m is required!

The charts a good idea as mentioned and that'll show you likely spost to crab!

Hi Keeny,

Sorry i didnt reply to your pm. For some reason your pm setting is set to not receive pm's

The location you asked me about i would think wouldnt be anymore than 6-7 meters deep. I think its up to 5 meters but havin a little more is safer than sorry
