At least you're out setting traps. I think you're the very first person on this entire site that's actually crabbing.
Weather wise, we've had a mild January and I'm hoping for a mild February so the water warms up faster than normal so I can crab off the banks and piers sooner.
Theres a few guys here that are crabbing. Basically anything from NC and up is such down. |

Kinda wish I had thought a bit more about mving here to the Texas Hill Country when I retired, the deer, hog, and exotic hunting is the best in the world, the fresh water fishing is ok but it's way to far away from salt water fishing and crabbing. 3 and a half hours each way. I think its to the point that I'd rather fish and crab rather than hunt.

Ron I used to be your neighbor. I used to live on Kentucky Ave. I do not remember much I was only 4 when we moved. I was there from 1960 to 1964.

OK now you are the second person to live on Kentucky street. Craigfos also lived in the 2200 block of Kentucky. Infact Craig and I went to school together. John Clancy. WOW what a small world. Ronnie |

I can think of several more appropriate Rule #1's for selecting a property, which far outrank an easement behind the house in terms of importance... |
