Wading For Crab Solo Beginning Of Summer 2024

I was doing good on finding crab. I don't always film when I go but I decided to film this one with hopes to get my limit. I did good.

Nice work!

That's crazy that they are all out in the open like that! I've never seen that sort of crabbing! In Australia, we have crab nets.

[@seasonaloutdoorswitherin297]

They are closer to shore in the spring to summer for breeding and molting.

Love wading for crab, haven't done it since I was young though. How are you identifying females from the top?

[@seasonaloutdoorswitherin297]

They are more rounded and, their backside sticks out a little more than the males. The male crab are more flatter.

I’d love to try this type of crabbing. How do you know or look up where to go for it? Obviously not this spot since it’s private.

[@seasonaloutdoorswitherin297]

The beach is public the access is private. Just follow the season in your area and, find a low tidal area with eel grass and, look for any crab in there.

@ 1:47 that orange thing on the surface is that a lions mane jellyfish?

[@seasonaloutdoorswitherin297]

That is a jellyfish But, I don't know the type.
