You got any?

We had a very cold, and ice covered winter here, cold spring so far too..set a short string of pots in my best early spring spots and boy was it poor....bad winters here usually cause bad winter kill as we're at the northern edge of blue crab country....
just wondering how it's been by you....

My youngest has 600 pots out now in the lower Chesapeake Bay…weather hasn’t been good…chilly and windy…he went this morning and had to come back after checking one line..said he got blown back in and he has a 38’ Deadrise.

Couple weeks ago he was bringing in about 20 bushels primarily sooks…peeler run has hit now.

Do people eat them things? Or Are they for cat food and old bay?

vinke is just messing with you since he thinks we have a superior crab in the north Pacific: Dungies.


My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

A survey recently found that the blue crab population in the Chesapeake Bay is rebounding. Hope NC will see the same.

If we could only get our crabs the size of Louisiana crabs or Louisiana crabs to taste like ours we’d be in tall cotton.
