COME TO ME, DELICIOUS CRUSTACEANS

So, Dad and I went crabbing today. It's been years since I went crabbing, and I'm happy to announce that I've still got the skills that I had back when we used to go regularly.

That is to say, no luck with the hand lines and I managed to lose one of our traps. : D I am clearly cut out for Deadliest Catch: Jersey Edition.

That being said, the area we were in was clearly great for crabbing. We caught 4 keepers on the first haul, and though a good chunk of the day was slow due to us not realizing we were a bit further below the area where all the good crabbing was, we still managed to catch 10 well-sized blue crabs before a major rainstorm drove us off. Looking forward to feasting on them tonight. OM NOM NOM.
