Can definitely just use the twine and meat. A buddy and I one time got hi-tech and used our graphite rods and braid. LOL.
We noticed all the crabs had been removed from the base of the pier so we needed a little more reach. added an egg sinker to the chicken to get it below the seaguls reach. We'd just slowly reel them in until they were over the net. Caught some over 20 feet from the pier... It was a hoot. Crabbin is just a good time and great way to spend time with kids or friends and have a drink or 2 and boil them up.
have fun.
