The rocks are in pools you can't turn them you just got to get your arm under the crab are buried under them, your going to get wet most folk wear wet or dry suits

Definately agree with that
In an ideal world arms need to be 10 ft long then you won't get wet,
Hands made of steel so they don't get ripped apart from barnacles etc.
It's hard going now as soon as they start peeling it gets hammered & people take everything.
The locals are p***ed off & have taken to running a key down the side of your car, or slashing tyres so either take someone (ideally a Rottweiler) & leave beside the car
Or as I do get number plates made up locally with silloth or Carlisle on the bottom of the plate. They just don't like us Geordies or mackems

Peter you said you turn the rocks over and the crab climb in your bucket and the locals bye you ice cream and tea?

Park at least 5 miles away from the beach or you'll more than likely need the RAC to get ya home

Sorry lads, I was just passing on what I was told by a lad I got a load of frozen crab off. I should have known it couldn't be as easy as he said mind.
