 Dont think you can get them without a boat, from what I have seen most people fish 300 or more feet deep, and usaully leave the traps overnight or check them every 24 hours. I have tried some prawning up the arm, but had very little success lately leaving the traps down for a few hours. There are some spots up the arm where the water may be 200-300 feet deep just off the shore, but you would probably need a helicopter and mountain climbing gear to reach the water.
