Back Creek 8/17

Daughter and I crabbed from 7 am to 11. Incoming tide, caught 59. The size is getting smaller but still some real nice 6" mixed in. Starting to catch more females, think I have to move a little more north
Caught at least 15 turtles and dozens of spot, perch and oyster crackers. Some of them turtles were big, don't know how they got in the trap, not easy getting them out either

Dividing Creek boat rentals is about 20 minutes from there. Also a place called Beaver Dam, they rent boats that are towed out into the creek.

Thanks. I ran into my neighbor while I was out there, he was crabbing with some friends and was planning on having a crab party that evening. The only problem was he had only caught 9 when I was leaving. I told him to stop by on the way home if he doesn't get enough, he stopped by and only had 13 crabs, so I gave him 30 already cleaned.
Its the least I can do for the guy, he lets me waterfowl his farm for FREE.
