White leggers
 
I'll be headed to ocmd may 20 and 21 and I am looking to bring down some white leggers. Does anyone know of anywhere to get them? I know there isn't much demand this time of year.

I fished out of OC three days last week. We spent about $175 on whites and I don't think it paid of. Three out of four of our biggest fish came on greens. The greens worked very well. Many of the whites died in the warm conditions.

Even if you can find them you may want to pass on the whites.

Was on the trip with Ytuna and totally agree with what he said. I had a 16+# on that trip with greens. The greens also worked with a jig.

Ytuna is right. Did not find the whites to outfish the greens on this trip
My crab guy I normally deal with is not potting crabs yet so I called NY guy who I never used. I had my friend Dave pick up the crabs from guy in Brooklyn. Crabs were $50 a bushel and we bought down 2 bushels, When Dave added the cost of gas ,ice and 5 hours of his time his total came out to a whopping $175 bucks. There was some kind of bike race going on Sunday so a 2 hour roundtrip turned into 5 hours. With the extra time it took and the heat crabs did not fair well as only a little more than a bushel made it alive. If still interested in bringing white and going through the trouble I will give you guys #

If you're looking for an alternative bait to green crabs pick up some blue claw crabs. They're hardy,readily available and can be deadly on tog . AND if you have left overs they make a great snack :D
