Im going out for the first time this year taking my nephew out for the first time. Hes really excited but I usually crab in the chester and it seems im going to have to wait a few weeks for that to kick in. So my question is where do i go iv always crabber in the chester and dont really know the waters in the Wye or tred Avon.
Any advice is greatly appreciated im trying to get the kid into crabbing but if i get skunked chances are he will not like it.
also i know this is not delaware forum but anyone think indian river gonna be any good i know were ever i go it will be packed.
regards
kyle

The Tred was good early but it's slowed down. I think the crabs are going through a molt. A lot of doublers right now but the numbers have been tough to find the last week. It's a good place to go if your looking to catch 2 or 3 dozen.
