Hey all, my daughter and I rented a boat out of Red Bank Marina on Monday to enjoy a day of crabbing. We started off slow, but then it picked up with most of our crabs coming on drop lines, under the Route 35 bridge. We ended it with close to 30 crabs, all nice size with a few giants mixed in. All in all it was a great Daddy/Daughter day on the water.
My daughter and I have our own YouTube fishing/outdoor channel. Check out the link below for the video of this crabbing trip! We hope you enjoy the video, if you do, please give us a thumbs up and subscribe!. Thank you!

Great report! Your daughter really knows her way around the boat and did an excellent job netting the crabs. Not necessarily an easy thing to get comfortable with. Awesome seeing you spending quality time with your daughter and her having such a great time being with her father. Looks like you had a nice meal for yourselves at the end of the day. Great stuff!

Great stuff! Used to fish with my daughter too but lost her to her iphone and clothes shopping at the mall and other girly things with her friends. Miss those daddy/daughter fishing days. Keep your girl fishing and off her phone, enjoying the outdoors with her dad! Love that she was driving the boat too!

Thanks for the kind words! She loves everything fishing and outdoors, so I am hoping she doesn't lose it. And she did great driving the boat! Thanks for watching!

Nice trip.... I crabbed a lot with my daughter when she was young and then it sort of tapered off school activities, boys, college etc.
Good news is later in life they come back to it.. She still loves to crab and now I get to take her, my son in law and my Grandson Hudson who will be 4 soon.
He loves the boat and loves to crab.. Every time we get one he says "Hudson is on the crab!!

NICE JOB. I did the sink this past Wednesday 7/15 with similarly good luck. But worked over Red Bank, Oyster Point and then Oceanic bridge area. perfect me at 38 keepers
Even caught 2 fluke. Never did that in traps. One 4 incher and the other about 10 inches.

Thats great! 38 keepers and the fluke too. We love crabbing the Navesink. We recently did good trolling for bluefish there too
