Humboldt Inland Water Crabbing - 12/5/20

Kitty, David and I got on it for some crabbing this afternoon down at the mouth of the Eel.  Conditions weren't ideal, ranging from whitecaps with rain to glassy and calm, we took it all in stride and focused on getting the trainee some time on the water running gear and handling the animals.  We were treated to a decent bite and a rich experience where goals were met and joy was had.

We got blown off by a squall at the end, loaded the gear in the rain, and socially distanced and masked steaming of the catch was topped off by a well deserved beer on my patio at dusk.

It doesn't get much better, and we shoot for that.

Damn that's a jumbo

Thanks for the report and pictures Eric.

Looked like fun and nice clean crabs 

Nice Eric. I found the documentary you and Sean were in and watched it about the Eel River. Keep up the good work protecting that watershed

I think our crabbing is getting a lil better up here. Looooots of clinkers still

Wow Eric, looks like a fun.  You guys are going to eat good with those nice crabs.

Love it.  I'm finally reading NCKA again.  I was going to post a picture or two from this day and discovered, to my dismay, that Safari is no longer responding to the "attachments" thingy here.  I can't post pictures.  Oh well.
