They Stole My Crab Pot - This Means War

[@TroyFiori]

I had one pot stolen last Monday in the Ross river mate. Can't wait to catch those dogs. Looking forward to a trail cam video and catching those thieving animals. 👍

[@SkidPig]

It will be awesome 👌

[@TroyFiori]

@@kizzjd9578 I launched the boat at Barnicle st boat ramp. The first creek on the right heading out. I was out with my niece. Had 6 pots got 4 good keepers. The first pot just in that creek was gone mate. So came home with 5 pots. The thieving animals. It's simple really if it's not yours don't touch it! What don'ts they understand about that and it's a $50000 fine if they are caught. Let's hope you catch em mate.👍

@@SkidPig Just wanted to give you a big thanks mate for your local knowledge. I came up from Tamworth to stay with my brother for a gap year at 58 after having two hips replaced. Thank god we don't have a third one 🤣. Your videos have not only entertained me but given me important information to take my boating and crabbing to the next level. Thanks again mate. Keep it up you are a champion in my eyes!😁👍

[@rogerdudra178]

A bad day of fishing is way better than any day at work. I hate it when the weather man is right.

[@Mrbuckaroonie..]

I lost my last crab pots to crocs. They wanted the chicken frames inside. I can handle that. Losing them to grubby humans is a different story.

I thank the the mates for talking Aussie great to hear

[@GregoryMcDermott-p3b]

If you catch the pot raiders...... just remember that the crocs have to eat as well. Donuts are better than working.👍👍👍Brizzy team.🐊🐊🐊

[@steveanderson2881]

I live in the state of Washington. I go crabbing every chance they open the season. And sometimes someone checks my pot. I know because it's not were I put it. THAT PISSES ME OFF TOO!!

[@SkidPig]

Nothing makes me angrier mate

[@aussieadventurestimetoplay]

Implant gps tracking tags into the floats and glue over the hole and paint over

He never seams to catch much but worth a listen after a few beers. 😀

Yeah after a few beers the dribble becomes normal😂

[@ericball7636]

Being on the water is awesome catching a fish is a bonus

[@rogerdudra178]

I've always held that one man's ceiling is another man's floor in fishing.

[@barefootrestos]

good work Lads, listened to you on the Alpha Blokes Poddy, thanks for putting me onto them, was a game changer for me. keen to give yours a listen. being from Townsville I'm keen to hear some local yarns. I grew up at Bushy beach in the 90's. good times great place to grow up. cheers bud

[@SkidPig]

It's live now mate, have a listen and let me know what you think

Last time I caught pot thieves in Ross river was maggots on mored boats in river.

[@michaelbrace3652]

Here in Hervey Bay one guy did set up a trail cam. He put the still shots of a blue half cab and a fishing kayak up on Facebook in each photo the culprit had the pot rope in his hand. Go big and go public.

[@robfaith6029]

a another youtuber in Queensland put some pot out and returned the next day and one of them had been cut open and the other one had be robbed as well as both had there baits eaten and the crabs gone

[@SkidPig]

You obviously didn't watch it

[@ryanhill4091]

Crocs get caught in the rope while trying to raid the pot. They snap the rope eventually in attempt to free themselves from the tangled mess.

[@acp1866]

Will be very interested to see results of the trail cam footage. Make sure you hide the cameras as they will also steal them!!!

I caught one of those eel tailed cats when I was a grom and my dad stepped on the fish so we could get the hook out and got the spike straight to the foot! He was spouting all sorts of words 😂

[@SkidPig]

Oh man that sucks 🤣

[@fishmut]

Yeah man they are painful no laughing matter , I had one on a muddy bank stepped on it and the spike broke off in my big toe joint , it came back out of my foot years later with an itch in my boot and it was the spike working it’s way out , step on one you won’t be laughing they are deadly dangerous.

[@muddymad5864]

@@fishmut yeah bro they do hurt, it went through his croc and still hurt him bad. You should’ve gone to the hospital to get it removed there would’ve been a big risk of infection braz.

Where’s the link for the podcast Skid?

[@SkidPig]

We should have an episode uploaded today mate

[@roypowell3450]

Can't wait for the crab raiders episode, what bastards...Anyway thanks for the video. Cheers for now...👍👍

[@blakepaulger3042]

See if you can hide airtags in the floats and reseal them inside of in the pots, cause they're not waterproof and I doubt someone's gonna remove the float or look inside it

[@SkidPig]

I'm all over it mate 🤙

[@privateuse4681]

i sold them down at the bohle pub

[@rogerdudra178]

That would be akin to getting a guy his first trout. That usually creates a monster around here.

[@MY2STEP]

Yeah everytime we put the pots in at Coco creek just across from there the pro always takes the crabs and bait out of the pots and leave nothing he has onece cut the pots so there but 3 or 4 times we had 14 full crabs in the esky

[@wokbox_]

Hey mate I was crabbing in the ross on the weekend of the tenth not sure if it was a similar time to you and i lost 3 pots but I put mine down to tide as the tides were so big and I actually ended up finding 2 of them right out the front past the bridge as I had some pots on the sand out the front. all of mine that were tied up had crabs in them and still there. as much of a pain it is the zip tie is a good way to know if someone has opened your pot but there is a possibility that the tide could have taken that pot that was out the front of the creek.

[@SkidPig]

Nah mate, heavy pots and sinking ropes, plus placed out of water flow. I know how to crab the creek

[@KyleSap]

Had the exact same thing happen to me on the exact same day at morriseys skid. But I had 2 pots go missing. Dogs
