Not sure, I'm to lazy to look as I know my areas aren't open yet.

What's open?

Everywhere except the eastern Strait, San Juans, North and Central Sound. They all open on 7/1.
Haven't been out yet myself but I will during 4th of July weekend. Good luck out there!

My brother and I are headed to the Hood Canal Thursday.  We'll be around Dosewallips State Park.  There's a good clam tide, so while the pots are soaking we will rake some steamers.  The crabbing in the Canal hasn't been very good for the past couple of years since they let the Natives commercial fish for them, but we still get a few.  :bash:
Hunt hard and shoot straight!

I read that the northern part of the canal will be better for crab this year, north of ayock point I think is what the article said. Either way going to try it next weekend, good luck for those of you who venture out and be safe.
