Second time is a charm. Nice catch. I see people already kicking ass with nice crabs down state, but it will be a few more weeks for me until I go crabbing in the river.
Loving the videos they're holding me over until I can get on the water and get my crabbing fix. What traps are you using and where are you getting them? Keep em coming guys.
Still a little early for major river action. Just coming on in the bay. Smart move going a few rivers south. 5 feet is to shallow try 10-12 feet on the edge.
Well, I reel em on up and then I pack em on in! -Clutch. Can't wait to get out in Sept. My family moved away from the Severn years ago up to the Darnstown area and for a long time all I could do was buy overpriced jumbos unless I was willing to drive an hour. Found a 22 foot trailer sailor abandoned on its trailer off Rt80 a few years ago and have been re fitting it for a multi-sport vessel. Floated her last year on the Sassafras for a few days and this year I'm heading across to the Wye for a solid week. Nver used a trot line before, but I picked up 600' of the black Mamba from Crab Bully last month and hope to see some success between that and 20 or so traps. If you're on the Wye second week of Sept, I'll be the nut crabbing from a sailboat.
Thanks for the content and product suggestion. Do you think the 84qt comfortably holds a bushel? I see a 100qt pot also. Wondering if you wish you had gone a little bigger or maybe that would be overkill? Thanks.
No, I think it is a good size. I've already put basically a bushel in there and fit good. 100qt doesn't hurt. if you are like us, we don't always have a bushel to steam.
Why do you put the crabs in the basket while its in the pot? You have a basket. Fill it while that water is rolling with the top on and then just put the basket in and cook 17 minutes. You are letting all that heat out. The shells are dark orange in about 5 minutes. 25 minutes is cooked too long
I don't know ya'll, but I ran across this video after a 13hr. shift today, and I love ya'll already. The fur babies just melt my heart. 😊❤
That is awesome!! Thank you so much!!
I just love your show guys. You guys sure know what you are doing. Thank you for your hard work in bringing these videos to life.
That's awesome thank you so much
I usually put in a couple of bay leaves when I steam. I mix Old Bay and salt on each layer.

Yes! Nice video also. One day I'll get to Florida. Always wanted to catch a peacock bass.
Any recs where to go to handling in southern Maryland?

I got them at Bay Country Crabbing Supply. He does ship, but I am not sure if he is still making them.

We are right next to a deeper channel, the second place we went.

Are those sly fox chocolate labs?
I don't think so. Mixed of American lab and English lab. I believe.
@@OutdoorsInMaryland gotcha I got 2 chocolates from sudlersville that have that same blonde nose color
@HunterMazzio my dogs are a little nuts, lol. great on the boat though
How much does a bushel cost?
@@dmak1080 I would say, about 180- 250$
Me and the little bro caught 11 last week goin for a freakin bushel
The beginning was a tough day, but ended well. Wife was very happy.
@@OutdoorsInMaryland happy wife happy life unhappy wife stone cold misery quote from transformers 2 I think

Just how I have always done it, and they always turn out perfect, like these did. Maybe I'll try that next time.
