I read everywhere that peeler crab is the bait to have. Could anyone tell
me
if other crab is as good the hard backed ones i mean. If they are how
would
you fish them?

Thanks


well me ole lubber, what you need to do is catch a nice bass and use that
for crab bait, works bloody well !!!!


Failing that, a nice nub end of bacon rind (the thick bit that isn't
thick enough to go through the slicer/is more rind than bacon) dangled
onto the sea bed from a child's crab line (preferably your own child's)
will attract crabs like nothing else in my experience.
