Best crab bait?


Tired

Recommended Posts

I just got some rock in from Tampa Bay. It's got all sorts of good stuff, and also some crabs, which are a little iffy. I want to move them to my refugium. There's also a pistol shrimp I want to catch and ID, to make sure it's not an aggressive species. I've got a couple of bottle traps, but what should I put in as bait? I figure I want something that comes in big chunks, so it won't escape, and probably something smelly.

Can I use these? There's a few additives, but I'd be using a small amount of clam at a time, and I doubt eating a little sugar once would hurt a crab any. Plus, nothin' does smelly like a clam.
