Keen2Learn 0 Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 just wondering what the rules are on using a hand spear? also if can you use the spear to get crabs? and does the tide affect the crabs coming in closer to shore? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Red Bull Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Not sure about the spear :dry: Always "dabbed" them on the bottom of the low, and the first 2 hours run in of the high.......others may vary,depends on locale Keen2Learn 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jagger 24 Posted October 15, 2012 Report Share Posted October 15, 2012 Not sure about the tide effecting the crabs coming closer to shore but it sure makes the fisherman get closer to the crabs.Rule of thumb for spearfishing around Adelaide (but please check PIRSA) From outer harbour to the southern side of the onka mouth and 500 odd mt out is a no go.I wouldn't bother with a spear for crabs, rakes are better and do less damage to juvenile crabs if used correcty. Spear and undersized crab and it's a lose lose situation Keen2Learn 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
