I am going to be in Nags Head end of September and was wondering where are good places around to go crabbing? I just have 2 collapsible traps and hand lines for the family

We came home last night after a week of mostly BAD weather 1 1/2 days of sun the whole week A good place to take the familey is the Kitty Hawk boat docks on Bob Perry Rd. off of Kitty Hawk Rd. We caught a lot of crabs but all small 3"-4" but it is ok to keep the kids happy. I also got a 8 lb. Snapping turtle which was returned to the water. Good luck and we are looking forward to next year.

I just got back from a week in Duck. Caught plenty of keepers, tossed hundreds back. The highlite was working with the local green police after calling in a poacher who had set a string of pots under milk jugs in the sound behind my rental. I followed him after he left and gave the cops his rental address, car tag # and showed them the pots from my back deck. Set up a sting with the green police and town cops. He came out every morning to take about 60 shorts and cook them for 4 days till we called him on it. I called it in and they jumped on him when he made it to shore. I hope he gets thousands in fines, the green cops said the judge will have a field day with this guy! If I have to play by the rules, everybody has to play by the rules. My state or yours.  Don't ever take a short crab when I'm around!
