But the one bait which works best at all times of the year is a dead octopus. It seems, in Mother Natures scheme of things, pay backs are demonstratively real. Crab is an octopuses favorite food and crab are very aware of this. When the crab smell a dead octopus they will travel extraordinary distances to get a bit of pay back. If you can't find an octopus, however, any real oily fish will do.
