Male Peeler Crab

Hi Guys,

Just a quick question for ye.
I've been reading up on previous posts about this bait and I just wanted to confirm.

Am I right in saying that the male Common Shore Crab normally starts peeling around this time of year?

Heading out on a boat from Howth tomorrow, thought I'd try and hunt down some of these guys near Sutton after work today if they'll be around.
I've read posts about crazy going-ons with these, illegal dumping of tyres / car doors / aggressive bait collectors etc.

I'd only be looking for a handful of them to try them out.
