Default Re: Dead Crabs at the Hook?.....

Interesting.... I wonder if anyone ever uses them as bait.

When fishing for Tarpon down in FL we use small blue claws as bait... Hook the crab through the side horn with a large circle hook and live line or fish them under a float. I'd bet that would work around jetties or close to shore in the surf as long as it wasn't too rough and the crab wasn't getting tossed around too much...
