Crabbing!
« on: July 02, 2019, 07:52:30 PM »
Who’s going to brave the super low tides and crowds to go drop some pots in the sound this weekend? We are going Thursday morning before the low. Got 4 new pots all rigged up with new lines and snaps, lines wrapped up and tangle free, just gotta wait for the opener!

No scouting needed, crab dialed in.

We're dropping pots Thursday night and pulling Friday morning before low tide. Super excited for crab again!

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!

Got the new buoys labeled and everything stacked in the truck, going to take the big boat out of Edmonds to avoid the gnarly boat launch fiasco with this -3’ tide tomorrow afternoon. Can’t wait for some fresh dungies and rocks!

I saw all the boats stuck at the Everett marina.   :chuckle:  Guys were trying to back down to the mud, but then they were getting stuck.  No, loading boats and they had to wait for the tide.   :chuckle:

Never ceases to amaze me how many people don't check the tides before heading to the launch.  Pretty good entertainment though!

Southern Area 10 was a total bust for us on the 4th. Anybody find the crab in A10?
