CART bait?

[Scotty91]

was given 2 cart sausages to try by an angler who was packing up for the day a few weeks ago.....i left them on the wall at middleton pier to use later .....about 1/2 hour later my mate shouts me over and pointed out some mucky bugger had left 2 turds on the wall next to my rod and knocked them into the sea with a stick that was lying on the floor ...the stick followed the "turds".. he still doesnt believe me that they were 2 cart sausages [partially defrosted] and is convinced some agile bugger from h/pool was trying to have a sh.te into the north sea lol

Lmfao got my belly in stiches hahahah

the law states that no edible crab my be used for fishing bait.
i don't agree with it but it is the law .i cant see why that if i go to the fish key and buy some edible crabs if i decide to eat them give them away or even bin them that is my choice but someone can say you cant use them for bait something not right there

Got to agree with you there mate. Some people like the brown meat and some don't. If you wanna use as bait then why not when you've paid bucks for them.

I wonder why u carnt use it as bait. We can use muscles and othere eatible sea food as bait seems strange like. Dont no wat the ppl maken theses rules up are thinking . Who no's

 

[Steve Bell]

Its stops the commercial potters using undersize crab for bait and anglers get the backlash from it....

 

[Wee Ver]

How is it prepared? Just all the inners of female crab mashed together then frozen

are you sure i was told by 1 of there officers they couldn't do it i was at st marys and a guy had been getting lobsters might or might not of had 2 meany or under size ones but he refused to show the nifca guy and he just walked away he told me if the lad had showed him what he had then it would have been different outcome

maybe the guy was big, have a feeling the guy wasn't a NIFCA guy, they certainly have the right to look at what people are taking.

I can assure you the fuzz will not be interested in Cart Sausages. Trust me.

Yeah they must have one or two things more important to worry about than what anglers use as bait

how do you tell the difference between male and female crabs?

[Pescod]

how do you tell the difference between male and female crabs?

Look underneath, the females have the biggest pouch.

 

[rod-the-cod]

When making cart do you use all the crab brown and white meat mixed and is it cooked 1st

how do you tell the difference between male and female crabs?

Daren, the fishmonger will sort the hens out for you, but to check for yourself, turn the crab on its back and check the "pouch". In a cock crab its thin and pointy, in a hen its really broad. Once you see the difference its no problem. Good luck mate.

The hen crabs are easy to spot they nag you all the time lol.
