Anybody else dislike holiday weekends, on the water??
Started out trying to prove a point to my girl... Headed across to my crabbing spot, at 4:30 am.. On the way across, watched several boats working their trotlines, and traps... They had to have set their gear by at least 4.. After waiting until legal time, and setting my traps around their gear, giving more than enough space, I really appreciated a couple of the crabbers blowing through my traps, circling around to run theirs.... After that, I had the priveledge to deal with boats, 35ft+, blowing through everyone's gear.. Are these boaters clueless, or rude?? Amazingly enough, only one boat almost sank, swamped due to big boat wakes.. You really should pay attention to your surroundings.. Managed to catch 15 monsters, by 1:30... Good thing i have outgrown my younger self..,
