INSANE Crab Hunting In Jamaica - with 'Mexican' | How To Catch Crabs | Catching Crabs On The Beach
In this special video, I share live highlights from my recent but scary Crab Hunting In Jamaica adventure. It was an amazing experience learning how to catch land crabs from the experts in the morass (by the sea) but more so, catching crabs myself!

So how EXACTLY do you catch crabs like the experts?
1. Identify the hole (larger means bigger crabs). An active hole, meaning signs of movement, suggest that their might be at least one crab in it.
2. Use a machete or similar too to 'track' where the hole leads, feeling for hollow areas in the ground. Note that you can track a crab up to 3 feet from where you identify the entrance to the crab hole. Be wary of the root/ base of trees which are usually harder to navigate.
3. Carefully dig while 'feeling' for the crab's back or limbs.
Sometimes you have to forfeit a hole as the crab might not be there at the time and
4. When it is found, with knowledge of the anatomy of the crab, try to mentally locate it pangs or claws then attempt to get your hands behind them and hold on to them. The reason? That's its main weapon! It can literally tear away your fingers!
5. Carefully pull the crab out and immediately place in a bag and close the neck to prevent it from running out. See the full article here: https://www.my-island-jamaica.com/crab_hunting_in_jamaica.com#HowToCatchCrabs
