Started around 05:45-10:30 Caught the High Outgoing tide. Used 30 Collapsible traps. Crabbing Started out Ok, Turned on @ 9:30 but I ran out of bait shortly afterwards. TONS/TONS & TONS of little ones, managed to get almost 3/4 Bushel, caught a few Jumbos. Worked in the 3-5ft range of water moved all over the place today. Water temperature was @ 84-86. Action was about the same as last week (sometimes three & four) little crabs chewed up the bait up really fast-had to change out bait several times until I ran out. Caught a few nice size Females, thrown back of course Caught three doublers’, Caught several large paper shells thrown back (hated to do that again and again). All of the crabs kept today were 5-1/4" - 7-" p/p. I took little CMJL out to pull a few and yes he caught a keeper, He was so excited. Looks like they are picking it up again….
