what is the biggest cherapine you have seen? This is a question I ask as I these are the 2 biggest ones that I personally have caught. They are the same lenght as 1.25l coke bottle body lenght. The nippers where that again +. got some good red claws as well to top it off. Very good dinner.

Got a few at the Roper that size... Biggest I've seen anywhere! Body was the length of my forearm and almost as round as a coke can.

How are they to eat???

The smaller 10-15cm jobies are awesome! I prefer them over prawns... I don't tend to feed em to barra as i'd rather eat them myself!

I might have to give them a crack.

Eat the body and use the heads for bait, get the best of both worlds. Those big heads leak a poop load of stuff, they get scoffed pretty quick
