    We were able to do a little crabbing during our trip to the beach! Ended up catching a couple dozen tasty blue crabs. How many of yall usually go crabbing when visiting the beach?

      Thanks brotha! Yea it's relatively easy and inexpensive to catch a bushel of crabs which would cost a whole lot in stores...you'll have to give it a try! Have a good one man!

    Another good video. I like to use zip ties around the base of the drumstick and loop a parachute cord to the zip tie. It’s cheap and quick too. I would lay the net down and pull the crabs into it..... you all did great! Catch n Cook!?

  • @GreatAmericanStateFair

    Great technique! I also crab this way but I have a pretty cool trick that I've figured out over the years. If you find the deepest spot, the biggest crabs will gather around there and as long as the sun is above you, you can throw your drumstick up into the air and into that hole. You want it to come splashing down like a bird landing in the water. The biggest crabs you have ever seen will jump off the bottom and GRAB the chicken! If you get one of these, good luck getting it back in. It will be the biggest crab of your life. I guarantee it!

      @@StopFishingStartCatching No problem! It won't work every time, and it might not work at all, but when it DOES WORK it is really something. I am guessing it could take between 100-500 throws for it to happen. The weird thing about it, is you have to throw it further than you usually do and it's all all about the splash down. You will sometimes see it when people are throwing their bait away at the end of the day, they throw it further out because they don't care anymore and it happens, everyone crowds around to look at the huge crab that's just too far away to get it back.

    • @StopFishingStartCatching
      @StopFishingStartCatching  Год назад +2

      hmmm I'm not sure brotha -we usually just catch them so not too sure what the going price is. But I'd say if we are in a good area we can usually catch about a dozen in an hour or two so if you look at it that way it's about $35 bucks an hour if you were to do it yourself! But thanks for watching!

    • @StopFishingStartCatching
      @StopFishingStartCatching  Год назад

      We actually tried this once as a test - the chicken ended up catching more crabs. But it wasn't super scientific (the traps were in different areas/not right next to each other). But both have worked well for us in the past.
