went out with Grant on Sunday in this little diesel powered tin can 
late start left the ramp about 8.30 and headed out to peel to get a snapper on plastics on the way we droped off a pot or 2
after about an hour of catching nothing but little bream and snaps and with the weather  changing we headed back to pick out the pots
score card
fish 0
Crabs  14 keeps  not bad for about 1.5 hours in the drink

thanks Grant for a great morning 
the crab cakes were very yummy

Thanks Bob

Yep, a bit disappointing that the fish were on strike but it was nice to find that the crabs were firing.

FYI guys, after just over an hour in the water some pots came up with 9 or 10 crabs in them!! The Bay it seems is chocka with sandies at present, I can only wonder how many would be in there if you dropped them and left them overnight or for 5 or 6 hours.

But make sure you take a decent deckie with you because otherwise those pots can get quite heavy pulling them up full of crabs! Just ask Bob   - he's used to being the skipper, all soft and struggled to wind the boat back up on the trailer

i is surprising how heavy a tinny is when it has a diesel on the back
