Land Based Crabbing in the Mangroves, Gladstone, Queensland (ep04)

Have you been exploring in a mangrove forest?

[@kerrythompson386]

I thought you carried a tomahawk because you are in gladstone lol

[@nancykennon310]

Ah trapsing through the mud. You just popped up. Get to see Australia.

[@nickrava808]

its a scampie

[@stephenhausheer8206]

Great effort and nice crabs. Just need to be aware in this area as a croc has been seen lurking around Barney Point. Small mangrove creeks provide an ideal environment for them to make home.

[@stephenmyers4319]

Its hard going in gladstone catching a good feed of crab

[@aussiedossfishing3843]

Hahah probably easier with a boat, but it's possible off the bank

[@davidacademic1785]

The lobster looking thing is called a mud lobster.
