Dungeness Season Opener

September 27,  2018

Question: Could you confirm when the Dungeness season starts for 2018? (Anna)

Answer: The statewide recreational season is scheduled to start on the first Saturday of November, which this year would fall on Nov. 3. We do not yet have any information on domoic acid levels in Dungeness crab. That information will be released by the California Department of Public Health in October. Health advisories and closure information can be found at www.wildlife.ca.gov/Fishing/Ocean/Health-Advisories.

Hope it's going to be a good season. All those smallies from last season should be keepers by now...hopefully 

So looks like Dungeness season opens Sat? who is going out???

The question is who is not going out. I'm going out to HMB for 1201 am soak. 😀

Be careful out there this weekend. It may get a little rough.

Btw, just in case someone needs this info on the crab trap regulations:

Make sure you have done this before or go with someone that has. Plenty of light is good too. Boats will be out in full force.
