      All I know is the west coast crabs are more agressive due to the ladies there on. you should seek medical advice ASAP! (only kidding) No idea mate, if they peel the same then they should produce the right scent to catch your cod
      Species: Cod, Bass, Coalie, Flounder, Dab, Rockling, Mackerel, Plaice, Pollock, Ballen Wrasse, L/S Scorpion, Common Blenny, Weaver (unfortunately), Whiting, Common Eel, Trout, Pike... think that's it

          A shore crab is a shore crab, they will be fine and the chances are you will have used west coast crab before from the tackle shops anyway.

              I used to collect them from there and used with pretty good results over this side.....When there used to be fish
              "And I looked, and behold'a pale horse; and his name that sat on him was death, and hell followed with hi, and power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword and with hunger, and with the beasts of the earth"

                      In my opinion they are best used in the open sea, had better results in rivers on local crab
