Crabbing in OC

Type: Chesapeake
Region: Eastern
Location: Ocean City

My wife Krista and myself headed out on Friday to try for flounder on the incoming tide. The water was really dirty so we decided to do some crabbing. We harvested a half bushel using collapsible traps and chicken backs near the Rt 90 bridge. We found if the bait becomes washed out the catch rate really dropped off. So if your chicken becomes white you need to change for best results.
