That looks so fun! Thanks for sharing!
Nice and good job bro🏆
Hell yeah, dude! Looks amazing!
Thanks! catching the crabs was fun, but eating them was even better!
This is an awesome video! I love crabbing here, and also I live like 1-2 miles from this spot 😃👍
Bro what state is that I wanna go there and what is the schedule thanks advance.
That dinner looked awesome!
It was great, been too long since I had crab, need to make a more detailed video on cooking these delicious crabs and try new recipes
Poke holes in your oyster lid seal and or container if it is plastic with knife to allow the stinky juices to get into water and attract the crabs. I found that the incoming tide from low to high is the best time to go crabbing from docks.
I had a few holes poked but I think I should of made more/larger holes, oddly I was looking at the oyster container and thought I didn't but 100% Sure I did(not sure why I wouldn't of), hard to tell on video but the nasty oyster juice dripped on my hands which is why I remember poking holes with a knife.
@@cdro670 broken up Razor Clams and their guts also work good for crab bait.
im starting to find, the stinkier the better. Ive used squid freshly caught in Seattle, they go crazy for it! but they devour the squid too quickly and I don't go squidding anymore. im starting to find, the stinkier the better. id like to give this a try, Thanks!!
Don't put water on crabs ! They use up the oxygen really fast. They can live out of water for 6 - 8 hours. Maybe an hour in water. Water drowns them without a aerator. They need oxygen!
I actually use aerators now, this was my learning days, thanks for the advice, I will make sure I use one next time I post another crabbing vid! Thanks !
Muckilteo! Let’s go! That was the flounder spot as well on the old dock next to the ferry!
yes sir, I caught a decent size flounder their couple years ago, and heard of people catching big ones there!
@@cdro670 Yessir! Even the crab were nice size coming off the old dock!
very nice 👍👌
Thank you! I haven't done crabbing in a while, might be motivated to try this year again lol if I haven't blown this spot up already, didn't know this many people were going to watch this video lol
Hafa Adai Chelu! Try using razor clams. They're great for crabbing and surf perch fishing. My wife says I'm Nutz! LOL!
and if you catching nothing, just eat the bait! back-up plan ! haha I use to use squid that I catch as crab bait and man ill tell you they slurp it up like no problem, gone within minutes which was a problem since it took us sometimes couple hours to catch the squid(bait) and would sometimes run out before we can even get one legal size crab. lol "USE WHAT THEY ALREADY NATURALLY EAT IN THE OCEAN"(remember to read regulations to make sure everything your doing is legal)
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Has anyone tried this spot recently ?? LOL I want to go back and haven't gone in a while haha
I learned that the way to piss off crabbers who are dock crabbing and you're a scuba diver, do a dive under the dock and bring up a few crab.
lol I found out the hard way...haha
@@cdro670 I'm a commercial diver and did a few months of work out of Deep Cove in North Vancouver. The public dock there was where I left for work every day in a boat, and where I returned at the end of the day. The dock there is also very popular with recreational crabbers. All the work I was doing there was scuba so sometimes at the end of a day's work I'd leave my drysuit on and have a tank with me and go over the side when we tied up at the dock.
I gotta tell ya, there is no easier and faster way to limit out on crab than under a dock where there's a lot of pots and bait in the water. The crab were practically forming lines in a race to get to the pots first. Every direction you looked, dungeness crab. Just scoop 'em up and away you go. You're done in less than 5 minutes. Then all you gotta deal with are the dirty looks when you get to the surface with a full goody bag.
Do you think that was a douchy thing for me to do? I'm undecided. It was legal though and I didn't take any crab that were close to anyone's pots.
@@Mo_Taser No sir sounds legit to me. And I would be congratulating you! thats the whole point of "recreational crabbing"-to FILL your BELLY with delicious crab. People are just jealous now a days and SELFISH(look at how people drive nowadays lol). Even when I go fishing, some people seem to hate when catch more than them, and believe it or not, even though I tell them what Im doing to produce more to try and help them out some people are just so salty they won't listen and would rather struggle and be frustrated then ask for help.
@@cdro670 Thanks. Good talking to you. 👍
If you going to keep them you're going to cook them up and eat them so let us the viewers see how you cook them up in some good recipes and showing in detail how good they really taste 👍
Was that during weekend or weekdays? The piers in mukilteo are always pretty crowded during weekends.
This was during the weekday Lol I think I told my work I was sick, and had to go to the doc. (dock)
Other than that I agree, everywhere is always packed now, I use to squid 4 years ago at the docks but haven't gone in the past years due to shoulder to shoulder over-crowding, but I seen people on boats now?
you need a little wagon or cart to pull along to carry your supplies.
I wish I would have know that few years ago lol thanks for the advice though! I now own 2 wagon carts lol I haven't gone crabbing since but I use the carts to haul my camping gear to some of my camping spots that are not so close to the parking areas.
Dang brother. I'm thinking of moving to Seattle and this is why!
VERY BEAUTIFUL STATE outside the city limits lol
Must have been before new ferry terminal? Was crabbing there a couple months ago and gots several, but no keepers--- all females or too small!
It's been a while since I crabbed there, I do miss it lol I I had some good and mostly bad days. Had to work really hard for some keepers.
What times would you say are optimal for crabbing this spot?
I used to go winter time usually 8pm until the next morning, late night cold temperatures tend to help thin the crowd a little.
Always incoming high tide
@@cdro670 Not anymore- highly regulated times now. Must be done by sunset.
@@trevorvallins8913 NO WAY !!! I haven't gone in a while!!! that's crazyyy!!! use to go all day and night!
I want my relationship to be as strong as that casting line😂
lol a year later and I slept on the best comment ever, when I first saw my brother in law casting like that, mind you he is twice my size and more and he is a beast at casing the castable traps lol he even uses turkey legs for added wait lmao
When was the time you went to crabbing? Is it legal to go crabbing in winter?
Check your rules and Regulations! but yes, crabbing was legal at this time, which was around winter at the time.

What is the right address for this spot
I want to stay at that hotel I wonder what the name of it is
Silver cloud Inn hotel
This is a vibe! Great video. We'd love to get together and make some bangers. 🤙

@@cdro670 Right back at you. Let's connect on email first and go from there, if that's cool with you?
yes that sounds awesome
Fish was a red Irish lord !
Better late than "NEVER" lol Thanks I appreciate the identification and participation!
Can you link where you got the traps? Everything one needs to catch crab?
I got them at my local Walmart back then but I didn't realized how horrible the quality was, the traps did not last very long. im sure there are better versions out there that I have haven't discovered yet??

@@cdro670 which fishing rod and reel did you use? I’m new to this and not sure if buying expensive equipment is necessary
@@cdro670 Cabelas
bought them from Walmart here in WA state couple years ago. www.walmart.com/search?q=castable+crab+trap
I will warn you, they don't last very long and get beat up pretty quick, I noticed when i wash/rinse with freshwater after each use they lasted longer, but the springs seem to stop working after a while?? Someone let me know if they've come across a decent brand.
Where's this place at? Those are beautiful crabs

It's in Marine 8-2, at that Time stated 5 crab limit for Dungeness crab 6.25" length. I just checked rules as of this year it states the same.
"its so strict there, trust me game wardens come and checks our limits all the time"
"Scheduled to open July 1 through September 5, Thursdays through Mondays only. Tuesdays and Wednesdays will be closed.Daily Limit: Five males. I hope this helps.Heres the link".

@@cdro670 does that mean this pier will be be closed for winter crabbing?
@@cdro670 Your first catch nearly looked like a female. How can you tell when it's very close? Others definitely. had narrower abdomens.
@@trevorvallins8913 The males have a more triangular abdomen and the females are more round. once you catch a couple they easy to tell apart.
