As few as 5 years ago, If you used rings, you could crab year around. And I did. Had some fantastic January afternons lazing on the bay and pulling rings....

Duckhunting in November in the bay, and you could see 2 comercials working over the shelf


Now we are lucky to have 4 months in a year.

What I really find interesting is the fact that a portion of Port Gardener is supposed to be recreational only. There should not be a concerna about comercials in this area.
