Hi Daniel! Love the expertise. I read that was one of the common names in my field guides, but chose mole crabs as to not confuse them with the sand fleas that bother my Yorkie. Keep it up!
I saw one guy catch a bucket's worth of these in Florida. I haven't seen any walking though! Daniel, you're on fire! Welcome and keep it up!
Did you know that mole crabs are commonly called sand fleas by fishermen
