lil dippper(linda) and myself headed for indian river on monday afternoon.taking some advise from tlb(tammy) i didnt go to my normal spot. her directions were right on the money and we were on the crabs from the word go. we ran 1200' snooded line with necks. linda was dippin so bad she couldnt hardly lift the net to dump it. first run was 58 keepers second was 77 keepers with 2and 3 crabs on 1 bait. half way through the 3rd run we had to kick the line off since we ran out of basket space. 60 percent big females (7-71/2 inches) and 40 percent jimmies. we ended the day with 224 crabs total, linda will post pics shortly. i would like to thank tammy for giving us her spot for the day and a big thank you to my buddy chris for letting us use his boat. he and i were suppose to crab the previous saturday but he ended up going home(to pa.) with a slammin migrain headache. good luck to all and be safe.............rob
