Crabbing in Yaquina Bay, Newport Oregon

[@someoldmanoutdoors9136]

I met you over on reef robbers live the other night. His earl is quite the character.

[@mystylebaits]

He is so awesome. I appreciate him. I’ve learned so much from him.

[@outfishontario1272]

Right on 👍🏻 I’ll be back later to watch full video

[@mystylebaits]

Thank you!

[@kennethhoang5860]

Youi guys are lucky, lucky to be near the water. Our state is landlock so we have to buy them at $20.00 + each which is so expensive!

[@mystylebaits]

Wow! That sounds terrible. You’ll have to come out. Planning to set up a crab and cook in the future. It would be cool for you to come out and get some crab! Plane ticket might be more than buying the crab there though.

[@mescko]

Those of us in the PNW are so blessed to have easy access to Dungeness Crab. I like it better than Lobster and you'll never be satisfied with Rock Crab again.

[@lonewolfsok]

What kind of boat do you have?

[@mystylebaits]

Alumaweld adventurer

[@someoldmanoutdoors9136]

Even though I lived in oregon when I was younger I never went crabbing. And I don't know why because I love to eat crab. I like your boat also.

[@mystylebaits]

Shoot! You should come out and hop on the boat with Earl or I! I love crabbing but I’m not a fan of eating it. 🫣

[@someoldmanoutdoors9136]

If I ever get to go back out that way again I will definitely get a hold of you both. Take care, And thanks for the invite.

[@victorcunningham4220]

I was always taught the buoy first so you dont get caught up

[@mystylebaits]

One day we will learn😂

[@theimage1144]

Going to newport tomorrow morning.. is it good crabbing in july ??

[@mystylebaits]

That’s awesome! We will be out there in the ocean. Crabbing should be okay. You should get a decent amount. Check for hard shell, I recommend using chicken. What were you planning on using for bait?

[@mystylebaits]

Nice! We got our limits in rockfish, got 5 ling cod and 18 crabs. They seem to be all soft shell. Let me know how you did?

We crabbed that bay a lot in the 70s and 80s while i was growing up.

[@mystylebaits]

You don’t go out crabbing anymore?

[@danschulte113]

@@mystylebaits my Mom left Newport when I was about 18 and I lost access the the fleet of limit dories that we had out of Neptune's Wharf. Went a couple decades not fishing... Ugh. Picked it back up back around 2016. Got my kayak set up nowadays. Lotta surf perch. Jetty. 1000s of casts for steelhead and only nabbed one at Barton from the bank. I'll be getting a crab snare this week and plan on hitting Cape Meares. I'll probably launch in the Yaquina Bay too. As a town Newport has died IMHO. It sucks there compared to the way it used to be 20 years ago. BTW - what did you do with all that crab meat?

[@mystylebaits]

Nice! Best of luck. We invited friends/family over. What we don’t finish we eat the next couple of days and freeze the rest or give it away. We have so much fun catching them. Honestly I don’t even like to eat the crab haha

[@danschulte113]

@@mystylebaits haha you might grow into that taste. I don't like fishy fish all that much.

[@jhtsurvival]

Awesome

Thank you

nice catches I like to ask you what kind and whats the name of your Boat

[@mystylebaits]

We have a 20ft alumaweld adventurer. We don’t have a name but we are open to suggestions. ☺️

@@mystylebaits how about the Crab Express

[@adammillenium3295]

And what do you get out of each crab, a half of a bite!?

[@mystylebaits]

My favorite meat is the meat in the legs but the body has a surprisingly large amount of meat. It’s just not as good as the leg meat in my opinion. Have you ever tried what the call “crab butter”?

[@adammillenium3295]

@@mystylebaits Must be pretty big crabs! When we lived in Alexandria, Virginia, our favorite "outing" was taking the train to Baltimore and having blue crabs in one of the seafood restaurants on the boardwalk! We'd watch the boats come in and offer their catches to the chefs. They bought them all!

[@mystylebaits]

That sounds like a fun memory! I would love to try blue crab. I would be curious how it taste compared to the dungeons.
