I use a Perception Acadia to fish for blue swimmer crabs. I tow a small
fibre glass kayak to carry the drop nets and to have somewhere to keep the
crabs. Last time I went out I caught about 2 dozen. I have small floats
tied to the end of the dropnet line. I just paddle along and place the nets
about 30 metres apart and then after 15 to 20 minutes I go and pull and
empty the nets. The only trouble I have is when a big sting ray steals the
bait and damages the steel frame of the dropnet. In between pulling the
nets I usually do a bit of fishing close by to make sure the rays don't
steal the nets.
Cheers
Trevor

Has any one here tired crabbing form a touring kayak with any success.
