Antonio sent me a message earlier this week asking if we had hung up the pots yet.  Well, let's give it a shot.  What a great day to be on the water, flat calm with no wind or swell.  I'm happy to report that there are still crab in HMB, and they are B-I-G right now.  At least 1/2 this catch are jumbo 7+ inchers, and the rest are over 6 1/4.  Had to weed through some softies, maybe 50/50, and there are a lot of females and shorts out there.  I had some pots with 20+ crab in them today.

My biggest worry is that my wife(when I'm dead)will sell my fishing gear for what I said I paid for it
