Launched from Shipping Creek this morning and laid 25 topless traps from 9 to 16 feet outside of Cox Creek. Not much incoming tide flow. Low tide was not that low this morning. Managed 18 mixed crabs in 4 hours. Many of them came out of the mud to chew on my necks. Ran into a few people at the pier on the way out and they had less then we did. Water temp 57 at the surface. Traps are now in the shed for the winter. I'm done.
