Crabpot Variety

Today in our crabpots, we hauled in dungeness and rock crab and a sunstar, of which most went back into the drink.  But tonight for dinner we will be grubbin on 2 giant dungees, can't wait!

One of our pots, our smelly bait must have done the trick.


A couple of big ones to take home for dinner tonight!

Crab Happens


We launched at Shilshole yesterday and our fishing did not  compare with how well our crab pots did.  21 crab on the 21st of July!  With 4 keepers, we delivered 1 to my other mother to enjoy!


We got to see an Osprey with a larger fish than we caught, and only 1 harbor seal making me think we should have been fishing off Jeff-head instead.

Once the marine weather burned off, what a beautiful day.  Snow still on the Olympic Mountains, what a magnificent backdrop to a calm day on the water.

As for boating, it is never complete without a happening, such as the bearings in your boat trailer for example. Not only did they stink, so did the algae hatch in the Sound, between the two, stinkeeee, while working on that.  Enough said-Crab Happens!

What a feast!
