doran beach crabbin wed 11/24/10

I need to harvest crab for thanksgiving. i am planning on taking my next door neighbor out with me. We will arrive in the a.m. bait and set the pots. We are gonna bring a weber and cook-up some food and hang-out at the pic-nic area while the pots soak. i will probably bring my crab-cooker so we can boil-em up and get em on ice right away.
I may also re-bait and leave my pots overnight and pick-em up or re-bait em on thurs. Thursday and friday's forecasts look fantastic. wednesday's forecast is 10-20kt wind 5-7' swell.

Im with you Jack, I dont have any pots, just 2 hoops, I havnt won any crab pots yet.

I'll be there Wed too. Hoping to bring a bunch into the firehouse for the boyz on Turkey day.

I might be there also.

I am going to try to be there. It will be closer to noon for me if I can make it. Plan B is early Thursday while the bird is smoking.

right-on guys. i look forward to seeing you.  

Hey Guitarzan, If your in Santa Rosa your welcome to barrow my crab pots. I plan on going out Thursday so I need them back that afternoon.  No problem

Forecast has improved to 5-15kt winds with a 5-7' swell

I even may make the trip out...

Thursday is definely looking better at the moment anyone planning on heading out Thanksgiving morn?

I might be up for that...I'll know by wednesday.

I may soak my pots overnight and come pick-em up on thursday.

Already mentally preparing my co-worker for my early departure on Wed, as well as getting a head start on Turkey day by buying and chopping shit now, as to ease the minds of those left on the home-front.  I'd sure like to get some quality hang out time time on Wed with a possible scramble back Thur morning.

we will be there all day Chad. Quality hang-time at the beach is an integral part of holiday preparedness.

My wife and I will be at the campground Wed and Thurs (longer if I can find a site for Fri/Sat). We're supposed to be in site 119, but that may change. Small Winnebago Minnie.
I'll also have a propane burner/pot if anyone wants to cook their crabs.
Hope to see you there and Happy Thanksgiving to all, Jim
