  • Last Kayak Crabbing for the Year 10/19/2019

    Here is my last kayak crabbing outing for the year.... I did manage a bushel of crabs, but I had to work for them.

      Moc- The “Crab Whisperer” and one of my mentors who showed me the ropes when I was clueless...notice the old guys, the main “ posters” on this forum have slowed down...the greatest thing about “Snaggedline” is the knowledge base of kayak fishing and the generosity of the members sharing their experiences..not the money making aspects of turning a hobby into a paying job, but the sheer fun and enjoyment of the sport. Great that folks become sponsored “team” members acknowledging their skills...but the pureness of a new to the sport poster letting us know how much pleasure they see in their development in kayak fishing...we all started some where, sharing our experience is what keeps this forum alive...and from where I see, there is less sharing...Moc is one of the “old hands”...thank you to all who share...makes for some great reads...

        Thanks for sharing some of your tactics. As Ron noted, some of the early members of Snaggedline, like you Martin, do not post as often as in the early years. It is good to hear from you.

          Thanks everyone, I feel the same about all of you. I learned a lot from you too. I like to post from time to time just to give those who are new to the sport some information that they might find useful. I wish I had those resources when I was first starting out with my Wilderness System Tarpon. How to fish or crab and tactics is what I feel is important. Not so much as where the honey hole it.

            I have learned a lot and really appreciate your videos/posts. Both from the midwinter just wanting to watch someone dip a crab net to the learning helpful advise (such as where you try to soak your lines at different times of the year, or your recipes). Please keep em coming. I didn't manage to get out crabbing this year(ugh) but have a 1200 foot trotline ready for next year. Lol I said that last year.

              Thanks Justin. The afternoon crabbing this year really helped me get out. I have been out more than I post, only because it takes so much time to make the videos, that I enjoy doing.
