I think I will keep catching real crabs. I don't have to inject them with scent, just have to dodge their nippers :). Scrabbling around on the rocks catching them is almost as much fun as catching bream.
There's nothing . . . absolutely nothing . . . half so much worth doing as simply messing around in boats.

for bait fishing that is OK. If you are lure fishing, good luck casting your real crabs over and over again. ;-)

I'm in love with these things. My wallet is copping a flogging though, I've lost 4 to snags in the past few days :(.

The plates fell out of two of my crabs and I just sent them back to cranka and they are sending me new ones.
