    Western NC here, heading your way to our favorite place (topsail) in September just in time for the flounder 👍. Appreciate the fiddler crab how-to, would love to catch a couple sheepers! When we aren't fishing we are sharks teeth hunting, would love to see more tooth hunting videos in topsail. Tight lines, stay free!

    Any time you see dime sized holes you can dig them up easily. I also put a round cricket box down in the sand/grass/ rocks with a pogie.👍

    Hey Erin when you have large clusters like that wouldn't something like a sand flea rake work to rake a bunch up at one time as they are runnin away ?? Or a basket type on like a pool tool pole that way its light

  • @phileisermann1257
    @phileisermann1257 Рік тому

    greetings from down-the-road in Wilmington NC. can you follow up with how to best hook the fiddlers so the sheepshead swallow the bait instead of getting a free snack? How long do they stay alive in a bucket in our 90+ heat and can you keep them alive longer with some sort of aeration or something like a shrimp bucket?

  • @1216gsxr11
    @1216gsxr11 Рік тому

    Careful running and grabbing after them. The crabs aren't dangerous but if you step on, fall on or ram your hand into an oyster shell just right they'll cut you to the bone. Nice fish by the way

  • @joeschmoo9055
    @joeschmoo9055 8 місяців тому

    if you cant get fiddlers use half a nightcrawler per baiting. sheeps cant resist it. sometimes we only use nightcrawlers. i was skeptical at first until we filled up a bucket in a hr.

    How do you find them in Jan or Feb in Florida, Daytona area

    • @finsandfossils
      @finsandfossils  9 місяців тому

      I think they’re dug down during cold weather. This time of year, I hunt for mud crabs. Find a muddy bank with rocks. Go at low tide. Flip over rocks that are submerged at high tide, and you can find them hiding under there. They have very strong claws, and can do more damage than fiddlers, so use caution. And be sure not to grab any baby stone crabs. Stone crabs will have purple tipped claws, mud crabs have brown tipped claws. I’ve been able to keep them alive for almost 2 weeks. Just put some of that wet mud in the bucket with them, and then I’ll give them a rinse with some fresh marsh water every few days. I keep them in my storage closet, which maintains a stable temp. They’ll die if they get too hot, too cold, or dry. I’m actually planning to record a Mud Crab hunting video today! I’ll try to edit and upload asap. I hope that helps!
