    Crabbing

    This has been the best year so far. We've kept 209 since the beginning of May. We have 5 traps and get 8-15 each trip. We eat some and froze some and gave the rest to family and neighbors. Any one else doing good on crabs? BTW, this is in Surfside.

            Good idea. Just finished my wife's first attempt at crab cakes. They were very good. I'll take pics and post them next time. Take care.

              I haven’t done it in a pretty good while. We caught around 50 off our pier one day last year. That’s the last time I’ve tried.

                50? Wow, that's awesome!

                  Hey, I just googled 'crab black spots' and found out it's nothing but scars from shedding their shells.

                      Doug and I go and fish for flounder and crab. Usually catch about 2 dozen and kinda stop there. Went with kid and Doug and we had about 35 in about two hours. It was so fast I couldn’t sit down and drink a beer

                        Where in surf side is a good place to crab with kids. No traps, just lines with chicken necks
