fred 1 Posted September 6, 2007 Report Share Posted September 6, 2007 Barney and i were chatting about the number of crabs i had around me after i dropped a tub of crushed Mussells down. We got thinking that the crabs were attracted to the mussells. After talking to AAron he reckons he can help us. This is the plan......Grab some crushed mussells and put them in a mesh onoin bag. Use a bait clip to clip the bag into the bottom of the crab net. We'll see if it works. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ospray 1 Posted September 7, 2007 Report Share Posted September 7, 2007 I used some muscle berley at Wallaroo this week, never caught a fish except 5 weedy whiting, we did finish up with 14 big blueys from the same spot, most of them were Jennys, with the males big ones and full of meat, we fished the corkweed grounds as per the GPS marks Book, will have to try the Muscle berley in the cannisters next time I go out Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lcstory 0 Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 i find the best crab bait is what ever you have on your hooks when your not trying to catch the darn things. sorry i'm abit anti crab. lol. but i will tell my old man who loves to catch the to give musscles a try.
