To be honest man frozen seems to do the job just as good if not better IMO . Try tightlines off the site if you are stuck or give henrys tackle shop a buzz and get him to hold a few for you . That worked for me previously :)

Tallagh rod and gun are doing them as well but ya need to ring them beforehand and they will get them in........1.50 per crab :?

if you can souce good frozen ones they will work just as well and they normally peel alot easier after a spell in the freezer ,one sign of good frozen crab is the condition of the lungs if they have gone blackish in colour they arnt tip top :wink:
dave tilly is good for crab and normally has a few fresh available ,and normally a good stock of frozen :wink:

Dave Tilly, his frozen crab is as good as his fresh. So if he don't have fresh don't worry about it, he will have frozen. Real sound bloke to and real accommodating when it comes to when you need get ur bait
