Hey guys. Havnt been on here for a while. I wanted to head out xmas eve with my son and catch a few sandies for xmas. Was thinking about dropping a few pots out the mouth on the left of the brissy river. Anyone got any hot spots they wouldn't mind sharing. TIA.

reports have been good out near manly/wello point. I've been chasing muddies for mixed results. There are A LOT of crab pots out this season.

Good Luck

Where ever you put in that river don't let them out if your site. I seen 3 different boats check the same line of pots Monday.

I put mine along the rock wall with no keepers, all Jenny. 1 muddie and about 5 sandies.

cheers

Put 8 pots out tuesday night. Checked them wed. Morning. Reset them and checked them wed. Arvo. Released at least 10 crabs per pot on each retrieve. Only 17 keepers. All female sandies. Shit load of jelly fish too.

Sandies....Deep water round Mud is
Muddies....Go right up the Brisbane R, and I mean right up. Start at Southbank and then up past Indooroopilly bridge.
(and you are quite likely to get Sandies at Southbank as well....I have)
