Someone might want to give Dillion Beach a try.  I talked to a couple of PB's that did pretty good down that way in about 50 FOW.  We had our best luck using the PB in the 180' mark from the safe entry buoy north, but we still didn't have the numbers per pot like last years opener.  Hopefully the commercial guys will strike again this year.

P.S.  Sonny's BBQ Crab and Crab Omelet was the bomb. :thumleft:

I'll try to a the video up tomorrow.

Crabbing here was slow in general but it's "perfect" weather wise.  I enjoyed spending time camping with friends and OTW.  We ate delicious BBQed crabs for dinner and crab omelet for breakfast.  Hope the crabbing there will improve next week.  Here are some pictures of the trip...

Wait... Is it common to BBQ crabs? I've often thought about trying it, but couldn't find anything via Google so assumed it was not doable. Looks like you just tossed 'em on the coals -- any reason I couldn't cook them on a charcoal grill?

Grill is fine just try not to over cook them.

We boil ours, and toss them on the grill to warm up when we are grilling steaks and such. Never cooked them on the grill though, might have to try it.
Live your life, the way you want to be remembered. Don't have any regrets, we only get this one dance to make it count. Start at your eulogy, and work backwards.
