peeler crabs

[paul208]

where can peeler crabs be found at this time of year on the east coast

[liamd]

from dave at celtic baits, charges about a euro per crab either alive r frozen. beats hours running round rocks for me!

Depends where you are. If you're Dublin way, I can guide you toward a little rocky bay. If you are elsewhere, a shallow bay with weedy, rocky outcrops should provide a bounty.

But not on the N side of Carlingford lough, that dam place is doing my head in.

Nothing but bloody male crabs, and even they have buggered off, untill the fresh water runs out/ less, ah hell, theres been 2 much rain!!!!!!!!!!

Traps are barren and so's me creel.

Dave,
Me thinks you want to watch that developing peeler addiction! I've given up on the damn things........in fact I think I've discovered a distinct race of Donegal crab, new to science, that doesn't ever feel the need to peel!!!!
