Swan River Crabs

 Ok i've never fished in the Swan before and are just chasing some info on crabbing in there.

Not looking for any secret spots just somewhere to take the kids and have a bit of fun. General area and depth?

try the deeper water near mossie bay etc, or wait untill the water warms up and then they come in shallow, summer is the best bet

cheers

Yep, can still get them in the deep water, mossies is 15-16m deep. Youd work hard for a feed, just leave them set for a while, I just take off and go for a fish
