Crazy to see the change that's taken place in the short time I've lived here since 2003 when I was a kid and now the unknown of what it may look like when my son is older. I've enjoyed going to Dewey as well some places in Rehoboth so I can't really hate on the businesses and homes for building there that's just the nature of doing business on the east coast, I guess. Great video man!

Here in Alaska, we have to use rot cord (cotton string) since it'll rot off in less than 30 days. That's the law. I use it to tie one entire wall of the crab pot on so it falls away. Typically, when fished properly, the only "lost" pots were stolen by someone else.

Commercial or recreational? Trying to get our state to consider incorporating this on the door

@rickgotner7596 Ай бұрын

@@seasaturated Both commercial and sport fishing. An escapement mechanism is required to eliminate ghost fishing. Escapement rings are also mandated, just a little smaller than legal crab size, to let the little ones go. And here in Alaska, only male crab of the primary species may be retained. (King, Snow and Dungeness crab.)

@WilEngelen Ай бұрын

@@seasaturated Although there is an escape option, the pots remain on the bottom. And as I saw in this episode, there are a few thousand at the bottom. So water pollution remains a problem. The best solution is therefore to remove the pots. Can't it be fished up with large fishing magnets? There are magnets with a pulling force of 1600 kilos.

@seasaturated Ай бұрын

@@WilEngelen yep totally - the amount of marine debris these are creating is pretty brutal. I may be wrong here, but I believe some folks have tried magnets, but the issue we face is that these pots are so sucked into the mud and have such a small amount of actual metal on them that magnets don't really even make them budge. for comparison we can bend a steel rebar grappling hook on them before they budge, and our usual approach is to cleat off a grappling hook, put the boat in gear and let the boat do the work of un-suctioning them. obviously the other question is "why don't we just go out with a big dredge?"...we are trying to do the least possible damage to the benthic habitat as we can (including protecting our fragile little population of seagrass that is attempting to keep our bays healthy). At the moment, just a lot of hard work unfortunately!

@WilEngelen Ай бұрын

@@seasaturated I saw a crab cage made of steel wire with a coating on Amazon. About $35 each. Where the exit links were wire that rot in water if the crab cage is not taken out of the water. This can be lifted without any problems with a magnet with a pulling force of 1000 kilos. Better is 1600 kilos. Even if the cage is sucked into the mud. I have seen half a car pulled out of the mud with 2 magnets. And it was stuck in the mud. Who knows of an obligation for all crab cages made of coated steel wire? I try to think along in a scientific way. I would like to help you, but the flight costs from the Netherlands to America are too expensive for me.

ROMANS 8 Life in the Spirit 1There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. 2For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death. 3For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh, 4in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. 5For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit. 6For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. 7For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God’s law; indeed, it cannot. 8Those who are in the flesh cannot please God. 9You, however, are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God dwells in you. Anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him. 10But if Christ is in you, although the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit is life because of righteousness. 11If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you. Heirs with Christ 12So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. 13For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live. 14For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God. 15For you did not receive the spirit of slavery to fall back into fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption as sons, by whom we cry, “Abba! Father!” 16The Spirit himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, 17and if children, then heirs-heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ, provided we suffer with him in order that we may also be glorified with him. Future Glory 18For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. 19For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God. 20For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it, in hope 21that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God. 22For we know that the whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until now. 23And not only the creation, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies. 24For in this hope we were saved. Now hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees? 25But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience. 26Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. 27And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. 28And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. 29For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers. 30And those whom he predestined he also called, and those whom he called he also justified, and those whom he justified he also glorified. God’s Everlasting Love 31What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things? 33Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies. 34Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died-more than that, who was raised-who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us. 35Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? 36As it is written, “For your sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.” 37No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, 39nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

hey guys great video let me put this out to you you need to have a couple weekends get together so everybody everybody in the town that likes crab and then you bring the boats and their hooks and they need to go drag Hooks and start picking out all the crab pots the old ones and the other thing is you need to start helping helping people you need to get a weekend like a Saturday and have Urban bring their crab pots and put release relief twine on their pots so all the animals can escape that's for one thing the other thing is people need to put better buoys and better connection gear on their pots cuz that's the other problem people don't connect their ropes properly to the pots and or have a a buoy that doesn't float right. My guess is if you got a 100 boats together you can catch a hell of a lot of old crap traps a lot of

@seasaturated 3 ай бұрын

thanks! great suggestions here - we're definitely trying to scale up our operation, but the reason we don't just have everyone come out and grapple is so that we can protect the rest of the habitat. CIB is trying to restore seagrass etc in the bays, so we have to be super targeted with sonar instead of just grappling everywhere. We'd love to have you out next year! I'll share info as I get it.

Oh and in New England pots everywhere. Not just one either. 3,4,6 pot trawl. So u see a lobster pot it’s not just one trap. I know them they will drop them anywhere they want and if you drop yours in their “spot” you won’t find them again. Very territorial. And big guys do it right with proper traps and the latest stuff. It’s the small guys who do follow the basics

Thanks for watching! I've definitely heard that about NE especially lobster pots. This was specifically recreational crabbing in DE which doesn't require a name plate or biodegradable link on the door unfortunately. Wild West out here...I'd love to know what's causing these pots to go derelict here whether it's just unexperienced people tying a bad knot, prop strikes, intentional vs unintentional like you mentioned

@judd0112 3 ай бұрын

They are supposed to have an escape for crabs& whatever and biodegradable links so it falls apart. And their name on the plate.

not recreationally in DE unfortunately! Cull rings are only recommended, and you're only required to have your info on the buoy (most people don't do this anyway).

@eyespliced 3 ай бұрын

I though crab traps had a secondary larger escape "hatch" that was biodegradable and would effectively turn lost traps into more habitat because nothing could get caught in them if they were lost.

@seasaturated 3 ай бұрын

see the other comment but it's definitely state by state. unfortunately what we've seen in DE is mostly pots that are clearly old w/ growth but are still fishing. I like the biodegradable hatch a lot!

@TY-dq2px 3 ай бұрын

Crabs just leave pot when bait gone. Then after a week pot in water the mesh fouls out and stinks of marine growth which crabs hate. Also mesh quality is poor nowadays and pot will rot soon enough

@seasaturated 3 ай бұрын

I think you may be thinking of traps? The whole point of the pots is that the crabs can't get out :) the pots we've seen in DE are in a pretty low energy environment, so most of the time they're completely intact with critters (alive and dead) inside.

@TY-dq2px 3 ай бұрын

@seasaturated the crabs do get out when bait expires. I own 500 commercial pots and tired of being blamed for this problem. The weekenders need fined where they won't abandon pots whether in back bay, Delaware bay, Delaware River, or creeks..

@mrfish49el 3 ай бұрын

I didn't notice any degradable panels on any of those crab pots. In Florida that's part of a regulation crab pot so if you lose one the panel will eventually rot out giving everything an escape route.

@seasaturated 3 ай бұрын

I didn't know that about FL...interesting. Any idea of how long it takes to degrade? In DE at least the only mandatory part is a bycatch reduction device (BRD) which prevents terrapins from getting in above a certain size (it's the orange square plastic piece over the opening). And they're virtually not enforced. If you come in with an out of state pot w/o BRD nobody bats an eye. Thanks for the info!

@philmann3476 2 ай бұрын

True here in the Pacific Northwest as well. All pots sold commercially have an openable panel held closed by biodegradable string or something similar, which after being soaked continuously degrades, opening the panel and allowing any crabs to escape. It's not a big deal or controversial, everyone uses them and they seem to work. (And you simply replace them as they get worn.) Surprised Delaware doesn't have something similar.

@brandonosprey7457 Ай бұрын

Crab pots melt to nothing all on their own. We have to attach sacrificial metals to them and change them every couple months or the trap will degrade extremely rapidly. Any "ghost pots" were very recently lost.
