Muddies

Still to bloody windy to get out for a fish. Starting to think about selling the boat and buying a yatch.

Finished night shift and one of the guys from work wanted to go for a crab as he hasnt been before. I was thinking that most of the creeks have been hit pretty hard by now with the full complement of nomads in Samson. Took a gamble and thought we would try a spot that has never been renowned for holding crabs. It was very pleasent floatin around in the boat sheltered from the wind with a cold beer or two and when it came time to pull the pots this is what we came up with. Nice feed for my workmate, family and made some friends very happy.

When asked by a non-fisherman 'how many fishing rods do you really need?' the correct answer is either:

n+1 (where n is the number of fishing rods you currently own); or

n-1 (where n is the number of fishing rods which would cause your significant other to dump you.

What do most crab connoisseurs prefer, The blue manners or the muddies? I personally find it hard to go past those muddie claws.

Both are pretty good. Plenty of meat in a muddie claw, just smash it open with a hammer and you`re away. Blues are nice and sweet but can be a bit tiresome getting a good feed out of them. Luckily both are out there at the moment so just depends on what you are in the mood for.
