Hi All,
After noticing a few crabs being caught I thought it would be time to give it a crack.
Started off Friday evening we headed down the swan to throw a few nets off the banks into the deeper parts of the river. After a couple of hours without any luck I called it quits and went for a drive to a few popular jetties. Not a heap of crabs around but a few had 8-10 crabs but had put in a few hours for them.
Not to be put down, after a scorcher day on Saturday, that arvo we packed up the car and headed Mandurah way. I was really keen on at least a taste. Pulled up on the banks and went straight in. Walked for around an hour and a half only to get 2 sized crabs. Grabbed a coldie and waited for darkness. Once dark out with the torch and an hour later we managed to get another 17. The size wasn't massive with most 2-5mm oversize and a few around the 10mm over.
Sunday night dinner was crabs with chips on the side, nice way to end a hot weekend.
Cheers.
Still trying to catch fish!
