Crabbing!

[7mmfan]

Pulled 6 pots this morning for 30 keepers. So happy we had friends in town that got their cards so we didn't have to throw any back! Lots of boats and lots of buoys.

You guys ever try northern like minnow for crab bait! I always bring some over from the Columbia and they work amazing for crab bait! I catch them like crazy on chicken liver and load my pots up with them. Can't wait to make a trip over there for the opener in Bellingham and Birch Bay area later in August.happy crabbing all! And happy fourth of July week!

Used northern pike minnows a few years ago and was the best bait I’ve ever seen! I’ve tried chicken, salmon skeletons, lingcod skeletons, cat food, ox tail and by far the best results I’ve ever had was the pike minnow!

We ended up with 3 limits of dungies, and somewhere between 3-4 limits of red rocks in A10. Finding the rocks wasn’t a problem but finding the right beach for dungeness was a bit tougher. My wife and I like the rocks a bit better anyway so it all worked out!

Just finished our first few crab. Really just a salt water shakedown cruise in the new boat. Put a monster soft shell back and brought home a few. Got pots soaking overnight and will be gunning for a 3 man limit in the am. Fishing off har, got chicken and salmon carcasses soaking.

I've never seen as many soft shelled crabs as this year.  I'm tossing 3 or 4 soft ones back for every hard shell
