Look likes there are only 11 spots left in the Jetty Campground. Here is the link if you are interested in camping in the Jetty Campground. Once that fills up any campsite at Doran Beach will work.

Team Montana will be there! Savana to help cook again I am sure, and Chad, you can put Cody to work steaming and cleaning crab for ya again! Looking forward, might just be a day trip for us though, depending on my scheduled tour dates.

Anybody want to trade a spot in the jetty campground. The ones that are left are too short for my 5th wheel, so if you are in a tent or pop-up tent trailer and will trade, that would be GREAT!!!!
Thanks, Bill

I have reserved my site at the Jetty campground  #125, going to be my first Crabfest. Now I just need to figure out what gear to bring for crabbing. So excited and looking forward to seeing everyone again and meeting new folks :)

Steph:

I (along with a few others) have been taught under Jedi Crabmaster "Obi-John Kanobi Lyons" the fine art of rigging crab gear, including braiding line; I can help you get your gear ready.

Also, I spoke to Victor about having a seminar and he will be posting up in a few days/weeks/months/year/decades/centuries... :smt044 :smt044 :smt044

Most manufacture PCV pipe thru the scupper holes and thru the crab pot mesh/net to prevent them from falling off the yak. depending on how much your traps collapse and weigh, will determine how many pots you will/can carry.... you do not want to make you kayak anymore top heavy that is currently is.... I carry 4 Promar Collapsable traps; like the one below....

Cheap and effective... Don't forget the Bait cage!

I'm in and reserved spot #121 accompanied by my wife as well.  Arriving on Friday and leaving on Monday.

My only experience crabbing is from a collapsible net off some docks down in Mississippi over 30 years ago, so I'll need some o that trainin'.  Hope someone can post up where to buy traps.
