Crabbing With the Boys and Dad-Dad

The boys, their grandfather and I went out for a little crabbing in the Magothy. They did a great job pulling the traps all by themselves. We only ended with a dozen and a half but boy were they tasty.  

Bushels O'Crabs

For fathers day weekend Greg and I took our Dad out crabbing on bear creek. We had some hints as to where the crabs where and it sure paid off. We were at Merritt Point in line to hit the water before the sun came up and then once we were out laid our 30 already baited traps (first time crabbing with 30 traps). From 6 to 9 AM we had a bushel of crabs and keep going. We took a break to fish a little north east of Fort Carroll and ended up with 30 white perch and a few small stripers in about 45 minutes of slack tide. We ended up with between a bushel and a half and a bushel and 3/4. It was a great day and made for a wonderful Fathers Day crab feast.
