I live in South Australia and spend summer catching blue swimmer crabs. Nothing like sitting outside eating chilli crabs and drinking beer. One of the sweet pleasures in life. Enjoy.
"Washington Life" down in Oregon. 🙂 Up in Port Angeles (Washington..for those who don't know) we'd take a canoe out at night (with a car battery, spotlight, and a salmon net) in the bay and scoop Dungeness crab from 2-foot deep water. It only took us a half hour to limit out 2 of us.
A lot of people don't know this but a simple table fork alone performs much better than nut crackers especially in the high leg joints by slipping the outside tine into the joint and pulling up. Enjoy your crab however you crack that shell.
@@Spark4Dummy In Oregon bag limit is 24. It's kind of sad that there is no regulation on size and sex. Seems ripe for it to have a negative impact after awhile.
@@gordonendicott5114 yea I heard a lot of people where catching them by the buckets! I totally missed out but for sure I would like to give it a try next year. What’s the limit on them? I think they run around March if I’m correct
According to the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW), the daily bag limit for red rock crabs in Oregon estuaries is 24 of any size or sex. The area of crabbing is in Newport, Oregon. Washington State: All Areas have a daily limit of 6 Red Rock Crab, 5" minimum size, of either sex.
We usually take their claws and let them back in the water. The body is so small and annoying to eat with barely any meat hit the claws are huge and full of sweet meat
My grandmother would buy chicken legs, let them sit out for a day or two to start rotting and then use it as bait. Literally Never failed. We always came home with crabs
We only use chicken for bait when crabbing. Works awesome. We don't use fish anymore because the sea lions always take it and even took off with one of our crab rings
Oh very cool! I thought it looked familiar. I figured from you RUclips name you were crabbing in Washington. We go to a dock a couple hundred yards up on the other side of all the boats. We used to crab off the docks where the commercial fishing boats are tied up when I was a kid but now they have a sign saying no fishing or crabbing off docks. But there is a smaller dock on the right side that doesn't have any signs
@@kennethgreene7124 yes I do lots of videos in Oregon as well. I really like this dock because I’m always guaranteed to catch crab compare to other docks 👍. I tried crabbing off the Newport bridge and it’s only good on the early morning or later evening
Crabbing off piers in the Pacific Northwest is a hoot. Dungeness crab is pricey these days, so a nice haul offsets the cost of the trip a bit. Washington, Oregon, and California, all seem to have similar regulations and similar crab: male Dungeness of a certain size, under a limit, and red rock crab of any size, male or female, up to a very high limit. The red rock crabs taste great, but you have to catch the big ones to get enough meat from them.
I use to live in Washington I know some spots as soon as you throw your crab net out in about 5 min over 50 crabs in net so many crabs that I broke my string pulling crabs up. You only able to keep so many! Went everyday all summer was giving my whole neighborhood crabs for free. Nice video
I wish the crabbing was better down here in San Diego. We mostly get yellow rock crabs, the odd dungeoness crab (which is rare here), spider crabs, and maybe some small Mexican swimmer crabs (about the size of a blue crab). Technically, there are also box crabs and California King crab but those are so deep you needed specialized gear so only commercial fisherman go after them.
@@washingtonlife , for the whole state of California the minimum size on dungeoness crabs is 5.75 inches. Those crabs are mostly in Northern California but we do sometimes find a few here.
Nice! Someday I’ll have to try that side. I always go to the long pier. Love those big male Red Rock claws, & Pacific Rock crab claws are even bigger (on the males). When you start worrying about losing a finger, its big LOL! I usually catch the Pacifics off the jetty, but occasionally from the long pier too. 👍🏻
lol went crabbing in SF with rod and reel and it was fun after the first 3 or 4; however, the next few are tiring. Most of the crab are also too small or they free themselves half way through reeling.
Awesome video! We can’t crab here in the Midwest but it looks like something I would love to try! Next time I go to Cali I’m going to look into trying some crabbing on the piers
These are tiny crab, by the way. You have better luck doing it the way we did growing up. Going on the beach at super low tide and had picking them out of clay shoals. That's real WA crabbing.
Nice video, please use the crab cooking area to cook your crabs.. Please don't stink up the room and other people unit at the Embarcadero in NewPort Oregon.
I hope they are all of legal size, in Anacortes people go out on the train trestle and crab and they keep absolutely everything it got so bad that the State with approval of the Rail Road a Refinery closed down public access.
That’s not good that people keep everything especially the females for Dungeness crabs. It’s illegal to and also they are the future for more crabs….. In Washington and Oregon we can only keep male Dungeness crabs at the right size. Anything under size including females has to be release back
You can actually crab year round if your state allows it and the best time to go are the months that ends with a R because that’s when they are full of meat and fat 👍
@washingtonlife oohh...thanks for the tip. Now I gotta do some research for my state. I usually go blue crabbing during summer months. Will surely check out later months for sure. 😁👍
The daily bag limit for Dungeness crab is 12 (males only; 5 3/4 inches minimum size); the daily limit for red rock crab is 24 of any size or sex. That’s for Oregon

Thank you and sorry to through you off with my channel name but I actually do all my crabbings out in Oregon since their size limit is a lot smaller than Washington. This was out in Newport Oregon
We caught too many crabs in DMV over the years and sadly our crab population never recovered. All they catch now are juvenile crabs not even worth it. Please throw your females back for repopulation.
I did some dock crabbing when I was younger on a family trip to and last day there we went crabbing and had a 10ft seal lion bending our bait hooks and stealing our chicken legs
You can crab anytime but the best time for them are the months that ends with a R such as September October November December because that’s when their shells harden and they are full of meat 👍. During the other months the shed and not full of meat mainly just water in their shells
Thank you and this is for Oregon - The daily bag limit for Dungeness crab is 12 (males only; 5 3/4 inches minimum size); the daily limit for red rock crab is 24 of any size or sex.
Her in Nags Head N.C. Blue Crab is 6 in point to point no Females with Eggs ..Cook Them in a Steamer Pot Old Bag Top Sauce and Butter , That there is good EATS.....
Hey man! Thanks for showing us how to . BUT...can somebody make money? Selling.. and I guess you take the crab home and freeze them?? Where do you buy the traps?? Good to see you and your family. Enjoying a nice meal. Thanks 👍.
Thank you for taking the time to watch and you can make money if you have a commercial license I believe, I’m not sure since I only catch for a nice meal. I bought all my traps from my local fishing store and cheers 🍻
They are saltwater crabs and they are very sweet and has way more flavor than the Dungeness crabs. I would totally trade you for all our crabs for your blue crabs! They are my favorite
Red rock crabs 24 of any size or sex and this is for Oregon rules and regulations. Dungeness crabs 12 males only * 5 3/4 inches minimum size for Dungeness crab* that’s for Oregon
Check it out! you don't want to use fresh bait...you want smelly rotten bait....crabs are foragers, they can pick up a scent quit a distance away....I usually let my bait sit in the hot sun for a day or more, allowing it to get nice and ripe....drives the crabs nuts...but I guess it didn't matter here....you guyz are feasting.... So awesome, Mahalo's for sharing...Aloha!
So i went to Newport today to go crabbing and both the docks i us d to crab on ate closed to the public from fishing and crabbing. The large dock where the boats hook up to was closed around 10 years ago and the smaller dock i have used since is now closed. I yrid looking for this dock you used and wasnt aute of where it was. Is this dock open to the public?
@@washingtonlife ah. I thought that might have been where you were at. We are going to go to Waldport tomorrow. It's about 30 minutes farther but I've been craving some crab!

Blue crabs are the best
I was raised on the coast of NC and went crabbing and fishing growing up. I love a big pot of blue crabs with a bowl of melted butter.
Oh man blue crabs are my favorite! They are sweet and has the same texture as lobster 😋

Can you crab here without paying? just a question have heard about it but not tried for that reason ?
Only thing you need to pay for is your license to crab. Crabbing on piers and docks are usually free is they are open for the public
Everyone 12 years or older will need a shellfish license to clam or crab in Oregon. No other tags, permits, validations, etc. are required.

We caught too many crabs in DMV over the years and sadly our crab population never recovered. All they catch now are juvenile crabs not even worth it. Please throw your females back for repopulation.
Nice catch es what stayou are bro
Thank you and this was out in Oregon
I did some dock crabbing when I was younger on a family trip to and last day there we went crabbing and had a 10ft seal lion bending our bait hooks and stealing our chicken legs
Yes I had the same experience every time I’m out there with those darn seals 🦭. Thank you for sharing
@@washingtonlife no problem
Is this considered early in the season for crabbing and would you expect it to usually get better later into the summer or worse?
You can crab anytime but the best time for them are the months that ends with a R such as September October November December because that’s when their shells harden and they are full of meat 👍. During the other months the shed and not full of meat mainly just water in their shells
I agree with @washington life. Those months are prime time 👍
Mid August is legit
You can crab year round

Very small ;not sure they would be legal size in Australia 😂
Yes we have size limits here too for certain crabs 👍👍
This is by the embarcadaro condos/rentals. Was that open to the public or was it for residents only?
For residents only and thank you for watching
How do you access that particular pier? Heading that way Thursday, 9/14/2023. Great video!
Unfortunately it’s a private pier
Real nice size Crab , and quite a few each time.!!!
Do you have a limit and what the size Point..
Thank you and this is for Oregon - The daily bag limit for Dungeness crab is 12 (males only; 5 3/4 inches minimum size); the daily limit for red rock crab is 24 of any size or sex.
Her in Nags Head N.C. Blue Crab is 6 in point to point
no Females with Eggs ..Cook Them in a Steamer Pot
Old Bag Top Sauce and Butter , That there is good
EATS.....
Is the dock finally open again
Yes 👍
Hey man! Thanks for showing us how to . BUT...can somebody make money? Selling.. and I guess you take the crab home and freeze them?? Where do you buy the traps?? Good to see you and your family. Enjoying a nice meal. Thanks 👍.
Thank you for taking the time to watch and you can make money if you have a commercial license I believe, I’m not sure since I only catch for a nice meal. I bought all my traps from my local fishing store and cheers 🍻
Are they fresh or saltwater? H I w do they taste? I catch blue crab here in Virginia. I've never even heard of red rock crabs
They are saltwater crabs and they are very sweet and has way more flavor than the Dungeness crabs. I would totally trade you for all our crabs for your blue crabs! They are my favorite
Aren’t all crabs salt water?
were is that? I actually live in Doungeoness WA.
This was actually in Newport Oregon
Where is this?
Newport Oregon
Caught crabs in Cali once wasn’t even trying.
Lol 😆
Crabs for dinner...nice...how many is the limit? And whats the legal size?
Red rock crabs 24 of any size or sex and this is for Oregon rules and regulations. Dungeness crabs 12 males only * 5 3/4 inches minimum size for Dungeness crab* that’s for Oregon
Check it out! you don't want to use fresh bait...you want smelly rotten bait....crabs are foragers, they can pick up a scent quit a distance away....I usually let my bait sit in the hot sun for a day or more, allowing it to get nice and ripe....drives the crabs nuts...but I guess it didn't matter here....you guyz are feasting.... So awesome, Mahalo's for sharing...Aloha!
Thanks for the tip!
May i know what state and city this is ? Im so excited to
Go and try this!!!
This is in Oregon and thank you for watching
I love Newport
I caught crabs once...... They looked nothing like these though lol
Lmao 😂
So i went to Newport today to go crabbing and both the docks i us d to crab on ate closed to the public from fishing and crabbing. The large dock where the boats hook up to was closed around 10 years ago and the smaller dock i have used since is now closed. I yrid looking for this dock you used and wasnt aute of where it was. Is this dock open to the public?
Oh man I’m sorry to hear that brother. This dock I was at is a private dock over at the embarcadero resort 👍
@@washingtonlife ah. I thought that might have been where you were at. We are going to go to Waldport tomorrow. It's about 30 minutes farther but I've been craving some crab!
hello it’s meee🎉
Hi you! 😃😃😃
