Crabby Jane Crabs (or a how not to manual)
#1 BAIT. and what could be more irresistable than a chicken leg, hmmm?
#2 PLACE BAIT IN BAIT CAGE. Note that doors on trap drop down.
#3 CASUALLY DROP BAIT OVER THE SIDE OF THE BOAT. give the string lots of length.
#4 10-15 MINUTES LATER, PULL UP TRAP. note pissed crabbies
#5 KEEP CRABS COOL. ice is good - they don't drown. "I wanna hold your hand.." literally. crab appendages break off easily to avoid entrapment.
What happens next will probably not be included in this website until I can learn to do it a little more humanely.
