Want to boost your mud crab catch? Try placing your pots in tidal channels near large areas of mangroves or saltmarsh.
During high tide, mud crabs move up into these shallow, vegetated flats to feed and dig. As the tide goes out, they return to deeper water through channels – making these spots ideal for your pots. You’ll have even better luck during bigger tidal movements when crabs are more active. Set your pots where the water drains off the flats, and you’ll be right in their path.
Me and my dumb friends caught mudcrabs by covering our hands with a rashvest thrn sticking them into the crabs little hidey holes and pulling them out
Crabs would totally do that. Since they've got those claws you know they got to grab everything
