Zero at the north Causeway in New Smyrna. Actually, I did catch one 5" female on a Gulp! shrimp that I was fishing with...but the traps with spanish sardines did nothing (cept catch some wierd fish that I couldn't identify). Fishing pole 1 Traps 0 Then I went to Tomoka State Park and crabbed off the Beach Street bridge where I caught some crabs, but all small, biggest being maybe 4-4.5". Threw it all back of course. My hunt for blue crabs continues...

Try under the NSB south causeway off the fishing pier. Also the farther south you go the bigger the crabs! Try from Oak Hill to Titusville; I've heard good things from down that way.

I know it is not "big news" for us Southerners. I left out a key word on my previous post. I have been eating fresh crabs here all winter. I know the waters in North Carolina is a bit colder than Georgia waters. I will be putting my crab traps this weekend.

My father in-laws got 200 ready to go in about the third week of March. So by then with my kids help he'll have at least the better part of 3/4 of them ready. We haul 3 to 4 times a week about 150 a time out of SC. They were mostly females, sales dropped off due to the snowy weather up in DC/Balt.
