How to Catch Crays like a Pro - 14 in 3 minutes!

Here's a video of a cray diving session we had off Mindarie WA, staring a good mate and cray diving expert Shano. Snaring crays can be tricky business, but not for Shano. Watch his style closely as he demonstrates how to bang them one after the other. You will notice there is no hesitation in his approach, just strait in-straight out. We both ended up catching our bag limit of crays (8per person) and there were also a few WA Dhufish and various other species cruising around, making for an awesome dive.

This person is going out to catch crays legally in West Australia. He's after a feed that's it. If he is lucky enough to have scuba good on him. We go for a feed and getting them quickly gives you more time to sit back and have a beer. Yay
We have to clip the tail immediately so they can't be on sold illegally.
Thems the rules :)

Yeh right you reckon how to catch crabs like a pro. No professional cray hunter roots their spot to the village leaving nothing there.

[willhorner]

Brutal. Nothing ‘Pro’ about using tanks and snares. Use your hands and hold your breath like the big boys.

We snorkel for crays here in NZ an there's a limit per dive 6

[thegentleman]

do you prefer the snare to the net and stick method? I never used a snare before, what do you do if they are deep under a rock? I am really bad at catching them.

What is that you are using to catch lobster? It looks like a pipe with rope at end?

[TheMTBGrind]

suprised it isn't illegal to use a snare in WA

[davidlincoln]

Where was this filmed? I think I recognise Mindarie marina...

[mzhepi]

I like this method. It's less savage

[blowenbowen]

scuba gear for cray fishing?! oh man I wish this was legal in QLD

[jordihenstock]

Like a pro, haha. Get rid of the tanks and start using your hands instead of being teets

[JackDaniels]

It's so weird seeing lobster without claws. Do you guys eat the meat from the legs as well? We do here in Canada but Atlantic lobsters are much different.

[ellepatterson]

why did you cut top flap on the tail off??

[alexc]

With a oxy tank might as well just use ur hands.

[inindianyou]

Aucun respect. Il faut pas s'étonner de la désertification de nos océans.

[wjun]

lol anyone can catch crayfish in a scuba

[gregdebsherras]

You're not a pro if you use SCUBA gear and a lawsuit try going with goggles and then make your videos catching crayfish by hand and you get a lot of comments trust me not trying to be a fence full but do it the old way that's how people like it trying to give you a tip I live in every single day and I get heaps of likes on Instagram

[haydenmorris]

It's illegal to use scuba tanks for catching crabs and also illegal to use hooks

[maurioraking]

Definetly not a 'pro' 🤣🤣
Maybe just try snorkel and use no tools. And our limit is far off from 14 !! Were only allowed 6 per diver
