Rakes and fish nets are for wimps! use your hands! \:D You just have to be quick and pinched enough in the past to learn the trait.

Any mudflat area with eelgrass exposed on a low to minus tide in Puget Sound should produce a crab or two. They will either be on the move (solo or w/a female attached :rolleyes: ) or burried. To find the burried crabs, look for round divets in the sand and eelgrass and that usually the first indicator that someone maybe hiding. Gently dip the toe of your boot in there to see if you feel a shell and your in business.
