ABSOLUTELY! Was crabbing at Seaside today..the docks are hot! Plenty of seasoned legal males being harvested.. couple guys had over 120+ crabs today.. check out "The Dock Outfitters" you can crab on the docks and also rent boats/jet skis..whatever you want from them..they also provide bait at a small cost .
why would you be thinking im buying realty down there? im 23.. my question... are the crabs active in this area yet? (first poster answered) and if so are they near the docks or will i need to rent a boat..?
basically has anyone seen/heard of/walked up too and asked how it was/second hand reports. people crabbing in the area off of ANY pier
ive been crabbing the area since i can remember. just not this early.
but now that ive found out the my local hudson can be successfully crabbed im waiting until i hear reports about those monsters moving upstream.
but barnegat bay will ALWAYS be a real special place in my heart.
i have crabbing and fishing in my blood btw. its so embedded in my genes or something its so natural to me
