I limited on Sat and got 10 today up to 8 lbs. Oh well, next weekend looks good.

Had 90+ greenies in my trap on Thursday but many, many spider crabs, never seen so many in the trap.

We limited Saturday morning, and fought the wind in the bay to pick up 4 on Sunday. Lots of spider crabs as well, but the local tackle store is selling a generous amount of green crabs for 2 dollars so we supplemented our catch. I did not weigh our fish but we had a couple good size.

Pete, you using Asians at all?

 

[pmeggers]

Yes - I dont see why not...????

Thoughts?

I find the Asian crabs to outfish the Greenies....in most cases, but not all.

FWIW, I've caught Blackfish on Gulp baits. No natural bait, just a Gulp Sand Flea on a hook.

That is a good idea with the rod holder in the center of the transom fish box hatch. Does it hold a fishing rod solid enough or do you just use it for the cutting board?

What is a blackfish? :?

Is it like a tautog or something?

Where do you guys get your asian crabs?

 

[ReelyNauti]

go to a jetty at low tide walk the beach with 2 friends and look for flat rocks with little ledges under them /and flat lying boulders...... flip the rock and then hurry!!!!! one guy holds the 5 gallon bucket the other two grab em as fast as you can....one 1/2 bushel takes about 45 min to collect
