I've never heard of such a thing as "left over brisket". Where does that come from?

This is correct

Brisket is way too good and expensive to be used for crab bait nowadays...lol!

Aniseed oil has been banned for Carp fishing in certain waters (UK) as it was so effective. They now use Garlic...Just a thought.........😎😎

[@mervallan1822]

A relative of mine was a Professional Crabber for a number of years and he used Kangaroo as bait almost exclusively. He purchased the carcasses off a professional shooter. Cut them up with an axe and stored them in brine.

[@SkidPig]

Yeah it works well, if there are crocs in the creeks they tend to smash up the pots

[@craigdutton6072]

Flipping kfc bones we used as a experiment in cairns lol 😂 and I used fish scraps from a 5 star ⭐️ kitchen and soaked it in fish sauce lol 😂 it was better line bait than crab bait but the kfc was good but up the creek 👍but keeping turkeys 🦃 outta our pots is the issue lol 😂 my brother in law gets mighty cranky when we get poached as do I lol 😂

Hey Skid was that the Holt Prawn or from those Barkly grubs?

[@SkidPig]

Not sure mate, they were in a container full of liquid

[@davy2365]

I knew a guy here in Scotland who used to use rabbit as bait for lobsters and done very well.

[@adventuresinwonderland5592]

Love how you let that legal go who was mating !! I’ve done the opposite in the past but won’t do it again… even if it’s a 2kg crab… ooooo easier said than done. Still a bit early November might see 1 or 2, at least that’s how it is in the system I crab but once December comes they are scattered on the floor but a lot of soft stuff from their late October/November moult. 👍🏽

[@SkidPig]

Yeah I'm keen to go back there again in a few weeks and see what the difference is

[@adventuresinwonderland5592]

Heck yeah man would love to see the results !! Awesome content love it. 👍🏽

I went to put pots in off the bank at Fitzroy river got to one spot and did not put pot there due to about a 15 ft croc floating in the water 20 meter off the bank I was not going to walk down the mud bank

[@Antipodean33]

I make my own berley for whiting, tommies, gar and other table fish down here in South Oz and I use dry bread blended as the base then mix in aniseed, curry powder, tuna oil and garlic powder and I swear it brings in all sorts of fish. The last time I went fishing off the beach I caught 7 different species and tons of them

[@SkidPig]

Nice, wouldn't it all fall apart in a pot??

[@Antipodean33]

@@SkidPig yeah it wouldn't work in a pot, unless you shoved it inside a fish and stitched it up so it slowly leaked out, or freeze it in water and that may help it stay together for awhile. But aniseed is a real winner with fish for some reason. Commercially made berleys use it as well

@@SkidPig If you could figure out the scent gland the females release to attract the males you may be able to use that? Kind of like trappers of beaver use the castor oil gland of other beavers to attract territorial beavers. You must keep those females' from eating all your bait and filling the traps somehow?

FIRST OFF, "Girls like Aniseed", I just shaved, and I've thrown the Brutt33 out and splashed on some Aniseed, there's a girl in the office I've been keen on for a while, WISH ME LUCK BOYS. I'm 51, been crabbing all me life, grew up in Cairns. Best tip. There is only 1 thing worse than having your pot poached and crabs taken AND THATS, NOT KNOWING IF YOU HAVE BEEN POACHED. So, I always cable tie my pots shut, usually in both the center of the round pots like in this vid and also the hook that usually hooks onto the ring frame. I want to know more than anything if I have been poached, BECAUSE, then I can look at all the other variables to try and figure out why no crabs ? Was it the spot, the tides, the moon, the tide size, etc etc etc. ALSO cable tying will cause some thieves to just drop the pot, WHY, well maybe don't have a knife handy, maybe the small amount of time to cut the ties may put someone off etc etc so in some cases it can stop thieves. If you don't cable tie and you get a blank, you have no idea if you have been robbed or not, so have no chance to know if the spot was any good.

[@tolowanona340]

Oyster the best I reckon..💯👍

[@TheTopend2]

Question for anyone ?? I'm a Qlder. Grew up in Cairns, FNQ. Been down just over the border for about 10 years now, The Tweed. I have heard that these days in QLD there are tons of Jennies. ( just like this vid ) ?? Guys have told me they think that because you can only keep Bucks that its thrown out the whole balance of the crabbing ecosystem, the balance or percentage of male to female numbers ?? Kinda makes sense, I guess that over time it would have to. Just curious, is this true ?? Are Bucks less common and harder to catch in QLD these days ?? Down in NSW you can keep females. About 10 yrs ago, when I moved here, I asked a local Fisheries office why can you keep females in NSW. From memory he said their science is that females get to a certain age and become very cannibalistic ( sound familiar boys ? :) ) and kill other crabs, a bit like female spiders I guess. I find it a good even balance down here when catching crabs 50/50 male/female. I've also read that females only mate once as well, so after that they don't breed, so maybe bigger Jennies should be kept ?? I will say the size limit in NSW is ridiculously small, ONLY 8.5cm from between the eyes to back of caripous. I only keep a muddies about 1kg and up. Caught a few 2kg crabs down here.

Why do u not show you measuring the crabs. From what I seen there was more than one legal crab in those pots.

Because if we don't think it would be a good crab to eat we just let them go, it doesn't matter if they are legal, if they are not full of meat it's not worth killing

When I was a kid we used to spear crabs with an old broom handel & a brazing rod flattened out to a barbed point & an old car headlight in northern NSW . Went back a couple of years ago & it was F%^&ed. Too many people taking whatever & not obeying the rules. Theiving pricks don't just take your crabs , but traps & all. Not impressed!! You are so lucky with so much less pressure .
