Crabs have been out deep lately, but you can usually do all right hand lining downtown.

Spent a few hours at the museum yesterday and all I got was a sunburn. Ended up going to Quality Seafods to get my crab fix.  |

Well, that would explain why there weren't any. When about do they come up the river? Or, do they? Don't get me wrong, I love to be out enjoyin' the scenery as I'm "crabbin'", but I'd like to catch something too.

They have usually started heading that way by now, but you never know. |

How deep are you trying to crab? At least here on Pamlico River with this heat etc, crabs are practically on shore.....depths from 2 to 5 feet. Also what bait are you using? |

I'm using chicken. Crabbed at two locations in E City. One by the Albermarle Museum, the other, just over the bridge near the marina. Each location 5-6 feet deep.
