Lots of pots being dropped in area 8-2 this morning.  I hope they leave a few for the sports crabbers.

There is a husband/wife up north by bellingham that brings bait to tribes,  it is " we have 50lb frozen bags of ground tuna/clams/salmon/chicken it's $40."  I used it, works pretty good but man is it greasy, hard to clean gear.  this was about  3 years ago, I think they are still  doing  it and would sell some to general public if they ground too much.

My favorite are the ones in the shipping channel on short lines so they are just below the surface when the tide is running.
