[conoflexman]

can u use lobsters than are soft as cod bait like edible crabs

 

[endurothumpers]

i wouldnt of thought so as they have a minimum size requirement and unless your talking about fishing with a full size one lol.

 

[Bushwhacker]

It is illegal to use soft lobsters for bait,wether they are size or not.
The same with Edible crab.

i was fishing on a beach one night and not haing much luck so i had a wander and found a lobster washed up on the shoreline dead so i broke it out of its shell and put the meat on like you would a crab and got a six pound cod out on the very next cast... coincidence maybe.. never used another one since...

Yes and I bet when you found the lobster it was lying on a bed of fresh salad with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil and a couple of slices of warm freshly baked wholemeal bread !!!
