Just curious if you could help me understand a couple of the benefits of long lining crab pots over there its just seems like a lot of extra work pulling up the whole string then setting it all back down again and if that buoy get cut all those pots are gone not just one
Boat traffic is terrible here. I use to lose hundreds of pots a year. Now very few. I mark all my rows so if both ends get cut I can drag for the line. It's very rare to lose both hawks.
@@CrabdadCJ makes sense im guessing since all those pots are tied together they dont budge too much cause if we get a good blow with the tide our pots will be 100yards away if not gone by morning interesting how close we are but completely different styles
Love the videos my dad would use me as cheap labor sometimes dredging in the winter when I was young .gill netting in the summer and winter dredge was fun and quality time with my father miss it !
Wonder if the Brown booby means a bad winter, I know the whitetail deer coats up here in PA got really dark early this year. They say that's a sign of a cold winter coming
It'll be interesting to see. I'm pretty sure we had a bad 2014/15 winter. Anyways shout out to Paddys crabs in Dallastown, got 3 doz smalls comin my way tomorrow😛
Me and my dad carb in the same bodkin we crab in front of your boat on the other side of the wood thing and we have a quiestion why are there so many females and we crab there three to two times a week we are in the back cove
There is always a run of females this time of year. They have been shedding and doubling up with the males for the last month and a half. They will leave in the next couple weeks to head south so they can spawn out in the spring.
Don’t know about up there but Labor Day was my biggest Crab day of the year here in Florida. Or was it Memorial Day? Damn I ain’t sure, but both good crab selling days. Lol
Another great video guys! Nice work!
Looks like you were pretty far south. I saw the new cranes in the background.
We were north of the bridge. They past by us along the channel heading into Baltimore
nice shot of the new cranes for the port
It was crazy how big they are. Hard to show on video.
Went out crabbing this weekend in southern Maryland, clear water and next to zero nettles.... can’t ask for much more: thank you again for the videos
We haven't seen many Jellyfish this year. Did you catch any crabs?
@@CrabdadCJ the crabbing was fantastic, 3 hours and we nearly filled a bushel... lots of heavy females mixed in that were released
We still got trees comin down the susky. Makes test driving boats a little tricky
Good to know. I haven't seen much debris at all. Just grass.
Yes, especially if they are just slightly submerged and give little or no visual signs on the surface. Is testing boats part of your profession?

Not much tide here. We use 1/2 inch irons.
Another good video ! Thanks ! GET TO WORK !

Yeah. Hope to get the same out of my kids. Haha. The quality time that is.
I love to see the owner of any company get in there and see what the job really feels like nice job captain til next time bye ⚓🐚🙏🌴❤️🇺🇸
Crabbing has been great up here in the rivers. Last weekend was my record best, this weekend was even better. 5 traps with two keepers in one pull.
Thanks for the report. Enjoy those Fall crabs or technically late summer.
Another lovely friday of crabbing. You da man!!

Tell ya in April. Haha. I hope not. Hard winters are bad for the crabs.

Father's Day is the biggest in MD. 4th of July probably second.

Sept/Oct is crab eating season if you really know anything about it.
And the crabbing was great, lots of males feeding on shad were up on the poles.
