2022 Crab season announced
« on: June 16, 2022, 06:21:58 PM »
So our crab season is again July 1. Looks like the same issues with area 13 and south area 12. North waters should be good again. Plan on slamming limits for the first 4 day in July. Pound for pound, outside of spot prawns is there any other seafood better? Please don't say halibut, lings beat that.

We'll be out.  The last 3 seasons will be hard to top.  And yes, there is nothing better out of our waters.

I've never been as I don't know anyone that goes crabbing.  Maybe someday I'll get an invite to learn the ropes. Good luck to you all and safe boating! :tup:

Nothing better than warm crab on the beach, best food I have ever eaten anywhere.

I am so looking forward to this.
Modified my Turkey fryer into a steamer.
Got new pvc perforated pipe swinging bait containers.
And my favorite new trick is my octopus trap   :tup:.

I'll be out Saturday, taking out a friend and his in-from-out-of-town dad.  We will be soaking pots in 8-2 and throwing in lines at the bubble while post soak.  I doubt we will get much in the way of fish, but some crab and a day on the water is still a pretty good day!

My marina neighbor got a 10 pounder out of the bubble on Sunday.  So there are some fish.

I think you are going to be able to walk across Area 8-2 on the red and white buoys this weekend.  I’ll probably give it a week to calm down.

I saw John got one recently too, so there's hope.

Oh yeah, it will be chaos.  I'm going into it knowing that, it's more about getting my buddy's dad out on the water.  Catching anything is just a nice bonus.
