Edible crab..bass?

[cod head]

ive just got a few crabs off my uncle who works the pots, anyway ive got a few crabs and ate the beautifull claws and white meat, however no one in my house is keen on the back, what if i wrapped this in a squid body and elasticated it together on a pennel and prodded a few holes in the squid with a hook to let smell out, surely this would be a good bass bait? anyone tried this technique before..

Never tried it mate, but gotta be worth a shot like.

Sounds a canny idea to me mate, edible crab wrapped in squid got to be worth a shot.

Cooked crab meat does not work as bait has no scent or juices mate

it would more than likely be the squid that would attract a take " but one never knows

Ive had bass on small hard back shore crab . And had bass with eater peeler in them so can't see why it wouldn't work, ( if the bass are about) I would try it in a finger bandage , the way you do when using cart, but as the lads have said if it's cooked its no good,
