Crab!

[sled]

We launched sat at about 11:00am.  That was like deadliest catch crap out there for my 16 foot bayrunner!  We left the channel, bucked waves for a few then headed straight back to the launch.

Hmmm...after a couple days on hood canal only a few keepers.  This is the worst crabbing I've seen in 6 or 7 years out here...hoping something changes soon!

Sled....I've to turned around and come home before reaching that point. Many people don't understand that just coming out of the channel right by the big ships it can get nasty.

Slow for us in the canal Saturday. 20 keeper crab but 18 were red rock. At least we got our limits of those. Don't get me wrong I love rock crab but way too many females and undersized dungies.

We had a good opening weekend.  63 for our group for two days.

We caught 70 crab (7 limits each day) and had to throw back at least 10 keepers from the last pot yesterday. Wind and water conditions were horrible Saturday but better yesterday. Fun stuff and good eats for the holiday weekend! Good luck to everyone out there.

Was in area 8-2 yesterday. Lots of crab in each pull.....but unersize or legal but soft. Moved to a different area. Soaked two pots for 45 minutes. 5 keepers. All really big. But slower than usual for sure.
