Is that u Harrison? :smt006 Droppd pots in same area and managed a limit too after 3+ hours.  Found that short 40 min soaks and moving pots resulted in best results. Many short Dungies and rock crab in the mix.


Did you mean the big filipino guy on the big tuna?  My name is Aris.   :smt001

Which one were you?  I'm still having trouble connecting people's names with the real names of the people I met on Sunday.

Had a great day crabbing with Chet. I weighted one end of a pool noodle as a float that would stand up out of the water, which turned out to be super helpful in that swell. I probably would have lost my traps otherwise.

Paddling back to the harbor against the wind is no joke. I wouldn't recommend it  unless you're a strong paddler. My next purchase is definitely a VHF radio.

Thanks to everyone for the tips. It was nice meeting you eelkram and wanabee! Congrats on your easy limits!  :smt001

It was good to meet you too. 

I had the same issue finding my floats.  I am definitely gonna put flags on mine before my next outing.

Yup, that was me.   :smt001

And, I remember you too.  You were one of the last people I said hi to on my way back to the harbor.
