Could anyone help me out by telling me if there is anywhere in Bris to buy live mudcrabs.

Every place i go the crabs are dead, i cant tell if they have been frozen or not. #[smiley=dunce.gif]

There is a seafood shop at Underwood just near the "Big Gun" butchers but I can't for the life of me remember the name of it but it is easy enough to find as it is on the main road. I was there recently buying some prawns to take to Great_White and Herm's place and I could not believe the size of the live crabs that they had in their tanks. Absolutely huge. Great shop. Will try swing past there to get the name of it. If you look up Scalem here on Ausfish he will know which one I am talking about and may know the name of the shop. Regards,

At the darra markets beside the railway station is a very large asian fish market, everything in tubs, usually has live muddies, but best maybe to go early saturday as the locals love their live ones.

Can back that up. Grant's a mate of mine and he showed us what a full load of muddies look like. :o Couldn't believe they moved so many crabs in one go.
