C-Dory 22' Cruiser: Winter Dungeness crabbing in the Puget Sound
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 авг 2024
- Winter crabbing is open in Washington! Come along as we take the C-Dory out to try our luck, and see if we ended up with tasty Dungeness crab.
We started out making Dungeness crab omelettes, then head out on the boat. After arriving at the crab traps we pull them to see what we caught.
All in all, a great day crabbing on the Puget Sound, ant the C-Dory cabin cruiser showing what a perfect PNW boat it is.
Thanks for watching!
I am highly engaging with this contents
Wow great catch. I can't wait to see more in the future. Thanks for sharing.
Spring has sprung fellas! I know it's Dory:30. 70,000 views later we are all anticipating the next voyage. Hope this message finds you well. Super excited about your future videos. Have a good one as always. 🐟🐟🐟🌞😎👍
Used to fish Vancouver island in our C Dory. Those were great trips all around BC. Great boats!!! Thx for posting.
That was amazing how those traps can save money and the traps are affordable, Literally crabs in a bucket on a whole new level 🙂
Thanks fellers learned lots. Not much crab fishing up here in mich. Someday I will get a shot.
Awesome video. We need more!
I keep getting recommended this same video. YT definitely knows what I like. 😂
Keep the c-dory videos coming!
...... And 17 minutes after the drop...... Yes it is I..... I am here Captain! 😎👍🐟🐟🐟
You're on top of it! Thank you for the support!!
@@wolfpackroam yes indeed Captain Eric..... It looks like you were on top of those Dungeness crab as well..... NOICE!!! 🦀🦀🦀
Wow that first pull was amazing. All males and huge. The C dories are a great boat. The flat bottoms make them a very fuel efficient design. However that flat bottom can make for a rough ride when the water gets choppy. But I believe it's a great compromise. Have a great day 🌤 🦀🍻😁👍

I like your videos, keep it up!
Some of my best times were crabbing in Puget Sound......
Doing great for 3rd time. Life must be good for the crab population. Hope it keeps healthy flu you guys.
Great job on the video. Nice boat.
Foss Marina to Dash Point area. My same route during summer crabbing. Didn't make it out this winter but the crab look alot bigger.
So amazing
Thank you!
On the other side of the world in Moreton Bay, Queensland, Australia there were two fantastic crab species that are still much sought after and fantastic prawns. The mud crab and the sand crab or blue swimmer to name them. There are many stories from the old-timers that when the sandies were on pre-overdevelopment times eg up to the 1960's, that big tigers and even great whites would arrive to feast on these crabs and giant schools of prawns, kings and bays. These sharks would literally open their mouths and push along the bottom, usually sand and seagrass beds to scoop up the over-abundant populations. You would see long furrows on the bottom and often in pretty shallow waters. Who doesn't like fresh crabs and prawns.
PS muddies are more mangrove shore based crabs and don't school like sandies do.
Check for soft shell too. Looking pretty white!
Good Video 📹 👍.
New Subscriber.
Wishing I was there.
Stay Safe 💕 💞 🙏 🙏
Grab the top of the crabs shell stick your finger slightly tight to the rear end and just pull. Easiest way to clean a dungy boys! Simple fast and clean
Lungs still hand plucked
I make an inside out omelet. Two tbs. butter in 8' nonstick pan add crab, mushrooms. sauté until mushrooms are soft. add beaten eggs stir now and then tell egg start to set. add salt and lemon pepper, grated Monterey jack, chopped green onions, Fold in half when plaiting. Microwave one Minet or so to set eggs and melt cheese a bit Top with salt, lemon pepper, hollandaise sauce, and a sprinkle of paprika. You can make it with crab, shrimp, and lobster chunks also. side with home fries. This is why my wife loves me and lets me fish. lol I have a 1964 21 ft Glaspar, someday I see a C Dory in my driveway. Always liked their lines. good looking boats.
Sounds great, we'll try it next time!
Those wouldn't be chanterelle mushrooms, would they?...
"MAA...?! Going to breakfast at some guy from the internet's house! Did you need anything while I'm out?"
In n.j. we can’t clean blue crab have to leave them until we’re at home fish &game catches us big fine$$$$
My buddy was a Bush pilot in Alaska with pontoon planes..... He said it was okay to poach their traps if he left a bottle of Jack Daniel's....... Hee hee hee.
I see that Maryland flag flying sir!
I love eating crab. I say it’s tastier than lobster.
Everybody has a different method for cleaning Dungeness crab. I always pull an extra bucket of saltwater plus the bucket of saltwater my crabs are in. I take them home live, boil the water from both buckets in my propane heated giant pot/caldron then drop the crabs in live. After 20 or so minutes of cooking the crab I drop the cooked crabs into a bucket of cold fresh water, then I clean them and toss the guts out for the seagulls that are always around living so close to the Strait of Juan de Fuca.
Lots of different ways to do it! We just found this is the cleanest and easiest way for us. Need to try boiling in seawater later this year. Thanks for watching!
Come January you might pull up some 10 inch jumbos!
Always ate crab from Puget sound, oysters too
That one big 🦀 probably ate the others 😄
49,000 views in a month with a new channel that only has three videos posted..... that's insane!!! You may want to ask for some likes and subscribers next video Captain. Your channel has mad potential with these Dory videos. I can't wait to find me a used Dory one of these days. Have a good one buddy. 😎👍
Nice ass boat. Catch more. Make more videos.
You said Chesapeake? I live in the area, and catch lots of Bluecrabs. Delicious.
60,000 views in two months.... WOW! Captain Eric you are still trending. Let's get your channel to 1,000 subscribers so YT can help pay for your boat gas. It's time to float the Dory again brother. Does the Dory have a name? Be blessed Captain E. 🐟🐟🐟
Consider.... Rain-X on outside and Fog-X on inside of windows. You'll never use your wipers again. One application lasts about 3 months....
Give to neighbor or next boat with peeps on it
Hey! Just found you! I'm in Oregon..hello
the Deep Hard
I use gloves when pulling pots because one time there was a jelly fish on the line......
Missing the best flavor by not boiling or steaming them in salt water (ocean not home made).
And we can't forget the crab enchilada in the ceso/crema sauce!👊
Lucky Edmonds in Candler NC
Nice catch! But surprised you didn’t check for soft shell…
None of these crabs were soft shell. Thanks for watching!
Are you allowed to crack the crab before you get to the dock? How would a game warden be able to measure your carb when you are stopped?
We keep the carapase (body) to prove the crab's sex and size, then discard when ashore. Great question and thanks for watching!
They deliver.
If you're worried about it, you shouldn't have kept it in the first place
How did you know it was a male by just looking at it, while still in the cage?
You can tell by the way it is.
Trying to figure out how you mounted the Trap Eaze to the downrigger mount. Is there an adapter out there or did you fab that?
You're looking at a 1026 PEDESTAL SWIVEL MOUNT as the base, with a 1023 TILT-UP MOUNTING BRACKET on top of that, then a 423 DOWNRIGGER ROD HOLDER ADAPTER, and finally the 750 TRAP-EASE to that... It may have almost been cheaper for me to wait for a sale on the electric pot puller....
do you sell your catch here in the PNW?
Is that a Phillies hat?
Will the crabs taste like chicken after eating all of it?
Can confirm they tasted very much like crab!
The body has great meat don’t waste it
I'm watching this naked! Is that wrong of me?
WA lets you license children under the age of 14 which includes its own limits. so bring any neighbor kids that dont eat crab
No identification on your buoys! Cleaning before you go in, I think is illegal under Washington Law. Check your game laws. Maybe a fine from the Washington Depart of Game.
Per the WDFW Sport Fishing Rules page 144 you must retain the back shell, which we did.
Don't worry we had identification on our buoys, just didn't show our full names and addresses for all of youtube to see. Thanks for watching!
several things, only sissy's use gloves or pulleys when crabbing, hes not from WA he's from MD, they are used to an entirely different species of crabs. most of the people on the puget sound that go after crabs dont have boats
I'll give you some criticism boys the way you clean them that's nice way but the best way to do it cook them in the shell why because you get all the good juices when they're cooked in the shell and all the good fat that you can make crab soup I'm in the best stuff from the best stuff is in the shell but a lot of people will just do it your way crack them and throw all the junk all the junk in the ocean and I think you're just wasting all the good stuff but this that's the way I always done it whole whole crab in the boiling and boil them I just think they taste better personally but this that's me
