LT,

Is this the same spot that you and I dropped the pots last year? There didn't seem to be too many other crabbers in the area...just a few other buoys.

I do remember, though, the first morning we were out there another boat went out and came back one pot short...remember? They thought someone had taken it.

If you could talk an enforcement officer, or a Sherrif's Deputy, or maybe even a city cop, into sitting up on the bluff for a couple of hours, if he watched you drop your pots and kept an eye on your buoys, he wouldn't need to see your information on the buoy...he'd just need to see you drop yours. You may want to drop them a bit away from the others to make sure the deputy doesn't get confused as to which are yours. I bet he could read boat #'s from the bluff, too, if he had a good set of binocs, which I'm sure he does.

Are you going to fish on Saturday?

Fish on...

Todd
