Yeah she was a good size Ash but I was glad to see you put her back in. 👍 Legend. People that steal crab pots suck 👎🏻 Please take extra care bloke, big salties have a habit of appearing when you least expect them too, even a small one could get you into trouble in the mud. Great vid dude 🤙🏼
The Queen Crab mate was a pleasure to catch her! I agree, I’m quickly becoming very aware of crocodiles & how stealth they actually are, it’s actually terrifying! They scare me a lot to be fair haha a lot of care will be taken after our recent crocodile encounter. Thanks for watching another episode mate & we will see you on the next one 🤙 Take care
@@wildtroopytravellers They are literally the last surviving dinosaur to roam the earth, stealthy and smart. Even moments after eating a meal they will still kill again and stuff a carcass under mangrove tree roots and save it for their next meal. If you return to the same spot day after day, they will watch you, learn your timing and then position themselves in the best place to strike. Once they get something in their jaws it’s basically game over…….salties are terrifying. I Definitely will be watching, appreciate the time it takes to make these TH-cam’s. 👍
Good onya mate for throwing the jennie back it’s the territory way even though it’s nice to keep them we have a rule amongst MOST of us locals to always throw female crabs back and iv watched numerous videos of people up here keeping them and your the only bloke I’ve seen do the right thing 👍 it was the only crab you got after all that hard work and you still threw it back tells me a lot about the type of bloke you are 👍
@@user-xe1ol7xh4i legend mate gotta keep the numbers up aye so they are there for everyone 👍 thanks for tuning in & looking forward to coming back to the Territory
this is pretty interesting. I keep thinking coz u put the pot in the center of the canal river that coz the mud crabs live in the holes up in the bank u'll prob catch a fish coz the crab has to go down to center of river to find food .. seeing the tidal movement is very cool . alot of water !
I do catch fish sometimes mate, what happens is when the tide rises all the crabs come out of there hidey holes to go exploring for food, I put my pots in the centre so when the tide drops again, your not leaving your pots high & dry on the muddy banks, exposing your crabs to direct sunlight & cooking them alive. Pot thief’s are the worst mate & it happens a lot 😡 Thanks for watching another episode mate 🤙 take care
Oh hello 👋...haha that was funny! I reckon it was a stonker for sure! Tried to google average size for a female but google told me nearest mud crabs to me...& gave me the name of a Chinese restaurant in Hawthorn 🙄 Reckon Hollywood will knocking on your door soon Sonnyjim, your videos (are they called videos 🤔) are getting that good 👍 Your humour 😅🤣😂
Great vid. I just subscribed. A lot of effort gone into that. Thanks. The rock in the pot - I guess only got there one way. Why would anybody do that ? Take the crab or steal the pot - but putting a rock into the pot ???
