Any Mandurah Crab Reports?

Hi ppls.

Just after any reports about Crabbing in the Peel.  Are there many about? How big? Drop nets or scooping?

I'll be heading out on the weekend to hopefully get a feed?

it's been a excellent summer, bagging out in no time at all but I tried last weekend about 11 o'clock am and got bugger all,must have gone to ground coz it's been to hot. If it's going to be hot , best to go early morn or late arvo if using drop nets.

last weekend only got 10, my mate went scooping , he only got 9 in 2 hours. A few mates have said that they bury themselves in the sand when it gets hot.

Hi all.

Planning to do some scooping on Sunday or Monday of this long weekend down in Mandurah.

I'm a little out of touch with the bag limit per person for blue manna's although I have been trying to find current info on the fisheries website. A lot of the info is out of date as it seems to change every year.

Anyone help me out here?

Thanks

 Had a great session in January, bagged out in an hour. Went twice since and have had a couple or no luck.

 

The water was so murky and seaweed filled last Saturday. Sucks cause the wind was perfect.
