I'm heading to rodanthe in April. I was wondering if I could catch any crabs than and where should I go? Also what are the prices normally for a bushel down that way?

I don't know the particulars for that area, but crabbing should be in full swing in April.
They are pricey that time of year.

I take people out as a ride along deal, if you want to get go out and see how we crab pot or peeler pot...It's free and will be the cheapest thing you'll find on the Outer Banks...  Just call me when you arrive and we'll pick a nice weather day...We usually leave at sunrise and are back in by 1PM |
