    Just struggling to fit under the computer desk with a big full belly. The wife and kids all enjoyed scrumptious crab for dinner.

    Squiggle,

    I can assure you that smaller one was a buck, just legal at 15.3, but a buck nevertheless. My mate and I had a double check before we tipped it overboard thinking the same thing. It just had much smaller nippers in comparison to the larger ones. LOL.
    Before you go crucifying people and making accusations, I always adhere to catch regulations and are well aware of the reasons for their existence.

    Hardly lol.

    You's obviously measure your crabs up there different to what we do down here.
    Here they have to be 8.5cm from front to back. How are they done there?

    Yesterday I seen a split 99% empty shell washed up with the tide, of what would have been a huge crab..The nippers on him were the size of my hand (small womans hand). Seems he might have met a hungry fish.
