a few questions about chinese mitten crab....

[Mike Yu]

Hi, just wondering if anyone know where to catch some Chinese Mitten
Crabs in san francisco bay area. What kind of regulation for catching
these crabs? I heard that you have to kill them and can't take them
alive. Is this true? Also, when is the best time to catch some?

Thanx...

Go up by the Mothball Fleet and throw out some expensive sturgeon bait, and
you will get lots of crab bites. They bite every other bait also. You can
not possess alive.
