Rented in Seaside and hit the water around 9ish. I used mostly hand lines baited with chicken backs. The north wind made things a little difficult but we wound up with 24 nice sized males. Ate some last night and they were packed with meat. 5 hours on that bay is always fun.

Good to see a crabbing report. I'm definitely getting the itch.

From what I hear from some locals it's been a good crabbing year so far down there.

Went down Saturday to SeaSide area had 26 and water was milky. Been a good year. Always a plus when able to make crab gravy.

Yes sir . 26 is perfect for crab sauce. I forgive you for calling it gravy by the way.

Did Gerry just post he is getting the itch for crabs?
Might want to see the doctor and get rid of it
