We love Sunday afternoon trips out - today Liam had the bright idea of crabbing at West Mersea. We've been to the beach there before, but when Liam went sea fishing recently, he left from the pier and thats where he took us - what a great spot.
We weren't the only crabbers there - in fact it was dificult for the boats to find a place to land!
We took a washing tablet bag, some string and a couple of packs of bacon, and within minutes, we were hauling them in.
We caught over a hundred crabs in the few hours we were there - Sam was amazed!
The crabs were desperate to get at the bacon and didn't want to let go!
Megan has always been very bold in picking up crabs, Sam has become more so, and Leah's been a big scaredy cat, but today she took the bull by its horns and took the crab by its shell! She did actually want to do that although it loks a bit like we're forcing her to!
Luckily, Megan's always on hand to offer some support.
Hunting for crabs take a lot of concentration...
