2021 Crabbing
« on: June 30, 2021, 05:58:06 PM »
It's time for crab in most Puget Sound areas, funny to look back at the regs and see how slowly they are getting more restrictive, I live on Hood Canal for example. Crazy how hard I have to work to continue to get limits when it was once such an easy fishery all summer long. Good luck to everyone, "go north" once again my friends.

Was just up there geoducking.
The commercial pots I saw them pulling were very busy.

And that was just off the one beach I was on.

Looking forward to the 8.1 opener on Thursday. Got family from out of town with a boat load of kids. Should be fun!

We ran out and made a few pulls today Out of Oak Harbor, on the East side of Whidbey Island in 8-1.  5 pots in and 3 limits in roughly 2 hours.  I had to go to work on swing shift tonight.  So they'll soak overnight and hopefully be heavy first thing in the morning.  :)

One does not hunt in order to kill; on the contrary, one kills in order to have hunted. If one were to present the sportsman with the death of the animal as a gift he would refuse it. What he is after is having to win it, to conquer the surly brute through his own effort and skill with all the extras that this carries with it: the immersion in the countryside, the healthfulness of the exercise, the distraction from his job. ~ Jose Ortega y Gasset

we never do over night just because of theft, but try for 3 hour soaks but the reality is the tide. If I can have a pot soak during the out, then slack and some incoming you get the best of all worlds.
