Looks like it might be a bit windy for crabbing this weekend, and if so I may check these areas out.

Looks a bit sporty. Taking my 15.5 aluminum boat. Trying to get out friday and hopefully saturday. Either way, let the chill begin.  :smt001 :smt001

Bringing snare as well as some perch gear.

Alex

We know how big the boat is and it only gets launched during toe knuckle size swells 😂😂😂
