Thanks for the Ethel Merman update! She stopped singing long ago due to unforseen circumstances.


I'll be hitting the PAX this week and will report for those that are still in the game.

If the winds are not a blowin, me three. My last trip for the year, boat comes home. I'm looking at Tuesday, how about younze? T.

I was going to brave the wind and waves today but when I woke up at 5:00AM this morning the wind was shaking the house and I was just too tired and hung over after staying up to watch the Sox kick the Rockies butts again .

I just put the line back in the freezer so I'm looking at possibly going Tuesday, either the Wye or lower Pax. I'm calling this my last trip but last year I think I had 3 "last trips"...

Going to try Tuesday in the Choptank. We'll see!

The fat lady is still singing for me. It sounds like she may be singing to me personally though.
Crabbed the Wye Saturday right after the rain subsided, just luck on our part. Crabbed from 1:30 to 5:00 and ended up with bushel and a half.
Talked to several boats that stopped by as we were crabbing and most guys said they didn't even catch one keeper.
We're going to play this hand every Saturday until we get skunked.
Maybe our late departures are paying off for us.
Good luck everyone.

I talked to a commerical crabbing friend who crabs the Choptank yesterday. He said he stopped last week because cutting grass was making him more money,but he said he was still getting a bushel and a half per trip.

Crabberlig, thank you very much, I'm headed down there tomorrow to give it a shot. Any hints on depth or what kind of structure you found them on? I'm planning to stay out near the mouth on the edge of deep water and move around until I find them. I'm planning to launch in the Narrows and run across EB so I can hopefuly I can get in a little top water action the morning and afternoon.
