I wasn't sure if there were going to be people at OAP so I decided to head out to Bodega bay.  A little bit choppy at 8 in the morning but it calmed a bit by 9:30   
For a two hour stint on the water I was able to net 28 Rock/Reds and 5 dungees. 
Hoping to try for a Dino soon though :smt012

Being an honorable sportsman is way more important than what you catch.

Whooo, strong work, makes me want to get out and so some crabbing again very soon!

Places like Doran and Ft Baker never cease to amaze me; there are people taking crabs from there continuously, yet the supply appears to be limitless.

If you guys are really into the red and rock crabs, drop your nets by Tides Wharf in the harbor. That place is crawling with crabs.

Kiel, the dungees were just about 6".  I stayed near the jetty cause the chops were nonstop.  I would have ventured out more for more commercials but i didn't feel safe.
