Decided to check out my crabbing grounds for some early season crabs.Arrived at 830am and within 5 minutes i had 2 keepers.I used my crabhawk and two handlines.It was slow going for the day but i ended up 8 keepers.I had one double on my crabhawk.The crabs ranged from 5-6.25 inches and all full of nice meat.Left at about 2:45.Can only get better from here on out.made some nice crab cakes with them

Thanks for the report. How do you like that crabhawk? I was thinking about getting one to keep with me for when I'm fishing and the crabs are taking my bait.

thanks guys.I personally love the crabhawk allot.I have had many,many doubles on it and even a triple.And with you knowing when the bait is being grabbed at by the crabs your bait lasts allot longer by allowing you to reel them in,when you see your rod tip bouncing.Its a great product.Happy crabbing everyone and i am looking to contribute allot this year.!

I loved my Crabhawks even more once I added netting with smaller sized holes. I love seeing the line bounce
