Well done mate. Great catch. Thank you for not breaking the legs/tips off the undersized ones. They don't survive when their tips are recklessly broken! Keep up the good work.

Great vid mate.. As a former commercial operator I once had a 'dig' at Paul for telling everyone how to find them in one of his reports , I believe his words were "It's easy , just follow the pros" .. Don't get me wrong , it was all nice and friendly. Iv'e ripped harder on him for boat handling skills but that's another story. He's a cool bloke. thanks for the upload , keep em coming

Great videos Doug! Very generous with your expert knowledge. Thank you

Hi Doug! Thanks for the awesome videos!!!

Great video mate, like to see you do one on mud crabs from the gold coast or even summer whitting. Great work keep the video’s coming

Nice vid Doug - is that your wife's Black Pepper crab recipe in the shots from your birthday dinner at the end of the clip?

Thanks for sharing Doug

Great videos doug👍👍👍

Does it matter which side up the bait bag sits on the bottom?

Hey Doug, awesome video! Been wanting to catch spanned crabs ever since I saw them when I was 10

Funny enough I thought those marks look familiar, I’ve got a good fishing spot around there 😂

Hi doug, just wondering do you think 70L of fuel on a jet ski is enough to get to the spanner crab ground? I often go fishing at 24F and my fuel never goes below half(including return).

Hi Dougie, Are you on sand or reef bottom when catching these tasty critters ? Great job & vid. Enjoyed it a lot...

Small catch for the broken double jaw fish

Hey mate does it help to weigh them down as well? Do they move much from the mark without being weighted?

Hey Doug, thanks for sharing the information. What length is the rope you used in the video?

U Beauty..man gooood day to go out..Whats your preference for finding out weather

How far is it from the shore?

hey mate what app do you use for the gps on your phone out on the water?

could take a little more time detaching them mate, you're napping legs off most of the throwbacks. Otherwise good video

HI mate I'm from The sunny coast around Gympie area would love to learn more would I find these crabs around double island point? If you need a hand One day pop down your email address and I will be more than happy to drive down to help and learn. Great video mate

nice vid , what sorta boat you running there cheers

how deep are you fishing in and how much robe mate

Hey mate, what app did you use then?

What is a spanner crab

Sadly we don’t get these off Yeppoon. A lot like Mackerel or Cobia the waters off Yeppoon are too barren to support a healthy ecosystem

What app is that on your phone

Helo

There not even tangled why are you snapping the feet. Us professional crater would get in a lot of trouble if the fisheries seen this. Plus it kills the under size crab not sustainable
