This nice Mud Crab (Muddy) was caught by me out on the mud flats off Bowen North Queensland.

Well........I had a lot of help from Dad.....

Aww, look at the cute lil' Yabba, so adorable! lol

And woah, there's a crab who looks like he could do some serious damage if you mentioned "crab legs and drawn butter" around him. Wicked!

lol......when I was about 15, a mate and I were out crabbing.
He noticed one sneeking back into a hole under the Mangrove trees.

The fool races over to the hole, jamms his hand down it trying to catch the Muddy.
No need for further details....lol

He lost about half inch off his pinkie finger & his ring finger was badly crushed.....
I've never heard someone scream so loudly!!! Twas a mad dash back to hospital...

Sheesh.....the things we do......
