Went to turkey point to scout out some crabbing for a VIP I have coming down latter in the month, Ramp was just to soft for me and the gnat were thick as thiefs, So head to Dividing creek 20 traps with necks first run 25 horse shoe crabs 3 blue crabs 2nd run some traps we could not even pull they had 4 horseshoe crabs in them must of caught 50 of them that run and they were bending the traps. So we moved. Next spot all small crabs 2 runs no keeper  so we were going to call it a day. But I ran the boat over to turkey point what a good move  did three runs 20 traps half a bushel all jimmies all over 5" largest 6.75 most close to 6" super nice crabs and rusty |

It is that time of the year for horseshoe crab mating - the Fortescue beach is loaded with them & there were hundreds of seagulls pecking the eggs out of the sand. Noisy too!
