Plenty of redclaw in Cania.
We were up there for Easter last year and averaged about 15 redclaw per pot per drop. We experimented with different baits (all of the usual suspects) and found that although everything worked to some extent, dry cat food pellets had the highest catch rate.

There are only two moments in time.... There's now, and there's too late.
Ok thanks for the responses pipifin and giffo65, i guess all I have to do is throw the pots in and have a go. I will let you know how we go in about 8 days time. Thanks again Shane
Looks like the bloke at the park told me Furphy, the kids want to go back to Cania, so will take the pots next time.
I have never heard of using dry cat food = how did you use it in the pots ?Originally Posted by pipifin
And what was your favourite way of cooking them ?
Thanks Scotto

Hey Scott
I'd never heard of it either, it was my brother in-laws idea. We used (his) stockings cut and tied a handful in 'em.... worked a treat.
We simply boiled them the way you would crab. My neighbor swears by pickling them.

I have been using dry cat food for a few years now and it works a treat, cheap and easy to store. I put them in a small container with holes drilled in it and attach various vegies to the top.
Paw paw, rock melon, tomatoes, half boiled potatoes all work well for bait.
