Always crabs in hillarys

use those or the blowies will rape and pillage very quickly...I made my own from small galv chicken wire around 25cm sq and have them permanently secured in the centre of each net...would've thought it be a bit early for crabs but gotta be in it to win it

You can use blowies for bait
You can use blowies for bait - blowies dont seem to eat blowies.
