Delaware 2022 Kayak Crabbing in the FOG!

It's been a long winter and we are finally back with some crabbing! Starting the year off with a solid 18 keeper crabs between 5"-6 1/4" in Southern Delaware. Hoping to bring more episodes out to you guys soon.
The traps I am using are Perfectionist Ring traps which can be purchased with the following link: www.uscharterboats.com/crabs/

[@adamh8517]

You’ve even got 99 fishing irl, that looks so relaxing mate with I could do something like that. I live in the desert’s of Australia lol

[@DelawareOutdoor]

[@DOWNEASTADVENTURES]

Cool deal buddy

[@stevezeppieri]

It’s good to see you out there and catching them. I’m in NY…dying to get out there. The water still isn’t quite warm enough yet. Very encouraging

[@DelawareOutdoor]

It’s getting close! It’s been a rough spring with all this wind and rain.

[@stevezeppieri]

@@DelawareOutdoor I couldn’t agree more.

[@thewrightgaming9686]

Not sure if you still respond but this is a great video. I’m looking to get a kayak soon here in VA. How many traps do you set, how early do you lay them out and for how long before you start pulling??

[@hooked4]

This is beyond awesome to me. I just saw my first crab in south jersey near the DE yesterday while striper fishing. what stretch of the DE is this? I’ve tried crabbing b4 with no luck maybe it was my homemade trap lol

[@DelawareOutdoor]

That’s so exciting! This is in southern Delaware 🙂

[@hooked4]

[@michaelhemphill8602]

I’m stationed at Dover afb and currently deployed.. been trying to find places like this but I know some people have codes.. but what am I looking for if I want to get into crabbing more?

[@justinbressler3807]

What kind of Traps are you using? Are those Alario Brothers from Louisiana?

[@DelawareOutdoor]

Perfectionist ring traps! Local made in Maryland by a guy, have the link to them in the description!

[@PristineAutoDetailing]

Man I need to get out!

[@DelawareOutdoor]

That time of year!!

[@ewliketravel4051]

Where was this at exactly?

[@FishyAngler]

Nice. I’m thinking to get some traps and get into crabbing. Can you recommend spots to crab?

[@DelawareOutdoor]

Sure thing. So much fun on the kayak, you have a peddle drive right?

[@FishyAngler]

@@DelawareOutdoor on kayak I have Minn kota trolling motor now. But I have a boat I can crab in.

[@DelawareOutdoor]

@@FishyAngler best crabbing is for sure in MD, from your boat I recommend Tred Avon and the Chester River around mid to late September. Those crabs are starting to show up now. In Delaware though this time of year you can launch out of Augustine beach outside of Delaware City and should be able to do well

[@FishyAngler]

@@DelawareOutdoor thanks. That’s what I already heard that Chesapeake has bigger crabs. I’ll definitely try there, but want to see what’s closer to home.

[@DelawareOutdoor]

@@FishyAngler for sure! Best crabs are out of the Chesapeake, especially out of the Chester or Wye river going into late September or October. Not sure what’s closer in Delaware but Augustine beach will produce, recommend having some open top traps with 15-20’ of line, usually use chicken necks and bunker for bait.

[@seonggkim]

I’m guessing this is the Indian river bay?

[@DelawareOutdoor]

Yup!

[@samanthamiller6723]

How long did you soak for?

[@DelawareOutdoor]

Usually 10 mins! I run the line of 10 traps and turn around and do it again. Usually about 10 mins between

[@fuzzygreen3634]

Where can I buy that kayak?

[@DelawareOutdoor]

Pretty much any Cabela's or online for delivery im sure!

[@fuzzygreen3634]

@@DelawareOutdoor Thanks! Do you know the model or brand ?

[@DelawareOutdoor]

@@fuzzygreen3634 this is the Ascent 10T, they have a 12’ version as well and sit in options but I prefer this one.
