    One of the best things about living in Oregon is the winters, when fresh Dungeness crabs are around $7.00 per pound!
    *I eat a BUNCH every year. **_THANKS FOR WHAT YOU GUYS DO!_*

  • @2011blueman
    @2011blueman Před 8 lety +6

    I'm wondering about the practice of dragging the haled line back in the water as you're retrieving the pot. Aren't you risking getting the line stuck in the propeller?

  • @FlintF
    @FlintF Před 4 lety +1

    Wow. What strikes me is how strict they handle the width of the crabs; too small goes overboard.

  • @alexkg1

    18:51 That one crab almost got away when it managed to go over the table! Then it got picked up and tossed back in. FREEDOM DENIED! HAHA

    Thank you for sharing.Great video. You could not pay me enough to work that hard ! How many feet do you fish for the crab ? Oh and looks like you did not check for males or females or perhaps your so quick? I missed that please explain Thanks A Lot ! Well oiled machine !

    • @menolastnameneeded1023
      @menolastnameneeded1023 Před 8 lety +1

      +Cannotsin its dungenus so im guessing 0-400 ft

    • @wesleymonske8103
      @wesleymonske8103 Před 2 lety +1

      More like 100' to 225. Dungeness like eel grass. Then shrimp 225 - 400' ft. Spot shrimp is the stuff. Holy crap batman ! Break tail off , butterfly raw best stuff ever. Thats what shrimp should taste like. Like crab when they die they release bile into their blood to decompose (its ammonia) the funky fishy taste. Fresh is best.

      Anders Brook Yes, another name for propellor to some..

    • @Andersbrook
      @Andersbrook Před 8 lety +3

      yeah! I think they have "sinkrope" on it (directly translated from swedish) so it lower itself under the prop :) Atleast that is how it works when i fish lobster :)

    • @bradgillis3701
      @bradgillis3701 Před 8 lety

      Squid

    • @wesleymonske8103
      @wesleymonske8103 Před 2 lety

      Squid for Dungeness, also turkey legs or duck . They are greasy and chum the area. Herring and anchovy work well too. Its s matter of how many tide changes (the soaking time) .anything from the sea works. Fresh is best ! Not stink bait.(old stuff) I found the best to be bbq colonel chicken. Fresh tuna ,duck , mackerel . Stink bait they have to hold their noses with one claw. Less productive plus it stencihes the pots. When you stor them it will attract rodents. You can hose down pots to remove the fresh smells. Its kinda like girls 👧. Bath often.
