That's GREAT Linesider.... 3 generations sharing some tides,,, CAN'T get better than that!!!
IMO-Sidenote: I often read of guys peeling the shell off...???
I never saw the advantage??...In fact, I feel just the opposite
> Even if just slightly, it will retain
some of the juices until removed
> It will also fend off cunner bites from that side of the bait
> All this is
momentarily of course, as it doesn't take long for it to come off on it's own anyway, if not during the decent itself....so why bother with the extra step of removing it yourself?
> I also see guys leaving the legs on? That's another no-no for me...by leaving the legs on, you get a lot of missed hooksets, Tog grabs a leg or two, runs with it or chomps...you set, but strike out cuz there's no hook there.
I like cutting a bunch of crabs once I'm set up on the spot...then I'll grab handfuls of legs, quickly mince and toss over the side.
