pescados 1 Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 This is a cray caught on Tassie's east coast. Took 2 people to bring it up. The cray below it is of a legal size. The cray above is 8kg and sitting on a full size dive tank! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Piranha 76 Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 thats a ripper of a cray Last time I was up near robe doing some cray measurements for pirsa there was some divers that brought in a cray a little over 6kg and it somehow latched onto my leg while I was measuring it's mate, I thanked the divers for their time and went to walk away with the cray still attached I only got 2 steps in before they pulled me up That bloody cray went from foot to mid thigh and it took another 10 minutes to pry it off my leg.It is odd for a cray of 8kg to stay shallow and grow to that size and not go off the shelf and turn white like the normally do at 4-6 kg.I would'nt kick it off my plate if it farted.cheers wes Quote Link to post Share on other sites
