Went out 2 Friday's ago w/ 20 traps using necks in the Elk near B-wood, caught 9.
We caught the tide right but got a late start. Going out again Sunday.

bdog and stryker, thanks for you're reports. It seems to be running late this year! I have not had a chance to crab this year yet, just got my trailer fixed up last night now need inspection but a friend of mine who crabs the Tred Avon has been disappointed with the results down there as well.

i'll agree with that lance, was down there earlier this year and worked hard for what i got.not worth 4 hr.s of driving for results.comm. guys i saw with their razor clams were not setting doing so hot.
