What did you use as bait? A Taurus?We went out yesterday in Nehalem bay. Crab are starting to fill up and shells hardening nicely. We should organize a NWFA fishing trip one of these days. I don't have a huge boat but we could probably put together a decent fleet

No, no. The idea is to actually CATCH crab, so we use Hi-Points of course.What did you use as bait? A Taurus?
Have you ever had blue crabs from the Chesapeake Bay?Nice ! Dungeness crabs are the best tasting crabs . Imo

They are delicious. The bay water gives the meat a sweet and rich, almost buttery flavor. We steam them with a liberal coating of old bay and a dash of cider vinegar in the water. The Jimmies(males) taste the better than the Sooks(females) and are usually more expensive. Plus the females are the reproducers, so we like to throw them back.No I haven't. Any good ?
I have not. This should be funHave you ever had Dungenous from the Nehalem?
Well criminy! I should really start hitting the coast then!
Do any salmon fishing? I'm all set just rearing for the signal!
I've never met anyone who prefers the blue over dungenous.I have not. This should be fun
Oh yeah, it's pretty fair. Just make sure you don't keep any undersized or female crabs. I hear it's about a grand per crab.Only $10 for a shellfish license too..I'm surprised they don't charge you an extra $9.00 to look at them with your eye, plus $12.50 if you want to cook the, and another $5.00 to eat them.
The Jetty Fishery and Kelly's Marine are 3 rings and a 14' boat starting at about $90 for the first two hours and like $50 for every hour after that.Iirc you can rent aluminum fishing boats with tiller motors at nehalem bay they seat up to 4, includes life jackets, fuel, baited crab rings and everything for like $50hr.
I saw an outfit called Kelly's Marina. They were $100/ 2 hours. They have tent camping as well as RV camping. Might not be a bad overnighter.Iirc you can rent aluminum fishing boats with tiller motors at nehalem bay they seat up to 4, includes life jackets, fuel, baited crab rings and everything for like $50hr.
