We tried a new area for crab and had great success. Normally, we launch at Mukilteo and head south (along with many others!) Yesterday we went north.

Three of us caught 15 nice dungeness crab in about 1 1/2 hours - unlike previous outing previous weekend, which took us nearly 6 hours to pull 12 legal crab. At least half of the ones were over 7" - some were very close to 8" - cooked my 5 last night and will eat one tonight :) No soft-shells and very few females in our pots, which was very nice to see. One pot had 10 crab in it with 3 keepers. Had fun and we will definitely hit this area again soon.
