A small blue crab or a piece of cracked crab. They wouldn't need those teeth they have if they made a living eating soft stuff


If you can either quickly or quietly switch out shells, you can bring home almost anything.

Live fiddler crabs work best, drop it near a pole or somewhere the current is broken by a rock or something and start pullin em up.


You'll always miss 100% of the shots you don't take.

Yes. I have seen them in clear breaking surf when it is backlit. I have occasionally caught them as well surf fishing. Best fishing for them is around the rocks and pilings though.
