Hey guys its been a while. I went down to my skippy spot the other day with John for a flick, had no luck whatsoever so we went down to the Jolly Frog jetty and got a couple of herring and John lost a tailor to a shag.  We decided to go back to the spot and give the skippy another crack but when I was walking down the beach I noticed a crab close to shore, within 3 seconds I was stripped down and ready to grab this blue manna and I got him pretty easily... however he got me too.
By the time I got to shore with the crab in my hand I noticed another crab in the water about 20 meters away, and another just a little bit further than him. Covered with lots of cuts, blood and peeling skin I ended up with around 10 decent males all grabbed by hand. The biggest was around 145mm carapace.
Not bad considering I didn't even have a clue they were going to be around. Went to a mates house and cooked them up for dinner. Twelve minutes seems to be the go for cooking them, they came out perfect. 
I'll be back there pretty soon
