I am looking very forward  to my next trip to the coast. I'll be taking an ice chest with a drain, and ice, along with a seawater soaked towel for my crabs. Hopefully, I will have as good of luck as I did last time! 5 keeper dungeness, and one redrock was by far the best crabbing trip we'd ever had. So much fun.

Cuterebra are NOT cute!

We drop rings, pots, and castable traps...depending on how many family members are fishing, sometimes we can get all our gear out. Usually have good luck with the rings, but all work.
