‘berried’ (egg-carrying) females
is illegal and you could be fined
up to $5,000. Gently return
these crabs to the water within
five minutes of capture.

棕色的泥蟹12mm就可以抓,这个可以判断出来的,我们抓的都是比较大的,小的直接放过,根本不去碰.
Undersized or ‘berried’ (egg-carrying, see
picture) crabs are totally protected. They
must be returned to the water within five
minutes of catching them.
You must release any protected crabs you have
caught before you pull any more drop nets.
