CRAB CART WINGS – Lightly Salted & Salted (4 per Pack)

Premium Crab Cart Wings for Sea Fishing

Our Crab Cart Wings are premium-quality, juicy red crab bait taken from the top section of hen crabs. Carefully scooped out and laid on a bed of salt, these wings are packed with natural scent and oils that predatory fish find irresistible.

Available as lightly salted cart wings or fully salted crab cart, each pack contains 4 wings, ready for serious sea anglers targeting cod, bass, smoothhound and more.

Crab cart has long been known as one of the best natural sea fishing baits, especially during cod season. However, modern anglers now use cart wings successfully for a much wider range of species.

What Are Crab Cart Wings?

Crab cart wings are the red, juicy, meaty sections found in the upper body of a hen crab. These sections are rich in natural oils and scent, making them extremely effective as sea fishing bait.

We carefully remove the wings and preserve them in salt to:

• Enhance durability

• Strengthen scent release

• Improve casting performance

• Extend bait life

How to Fish with Crab Cart Wings

Using crab cart wings is simple and highly effective.

1. Remove a wing from the pack

2. Cut into strips with scissors or use whole

3. Secure firmly with bait elastic

For best results, fish the cart semi-frozen or frozen, as this improves casting strength and keeps the bait on the hook longer.

Crab cart works exceptionally well from both shore and boat, especially over mixed or rough ground.

What Fishing Rig Should You Use?

The rig depends on your target species. However:

• Hooks from size 2 up to 6/0 can be used

• For larger species like Cod, Bass and Smoothhound, use a 3/0 or 4/0 strong pattern hook

• Choose a heavy-duty hook similar to Varivas Big Mouth Extra or equivalent strong sea hook

Pulley rigs and running ledger rigs are particularly effective when targeting cod and smoothhound.

What Fish Do Crab Cart Wings Catch?

Traditionally, crab cart was mainly used for cod fishing. However, anglers now regularly catch:

• Cod

• Bass

• Bream

• Flounder

• Plaice

• Brill

• Smoothhound

• Bull Huss

Because crab is a natural food source, cart wings consistently attract a wide range of UK coastal species.
