A friend of mine got suckered this year and dropped coin on a new boat and motors, shrimp pots, crab pots and all thinking he had a long shrimp season on the straits this year at least, he went out twice and then they closed the season after a few weeks when it was supposed to be opened till September, now all you see is indians with trucks and boats loaded with shrimp pots heading out.

My cousin came up from Vancouver to do some crabbing to find out there were 400 injun crab pots out in-front of the point Wilson boat launch for two days prior to the Thursday opener. 4 pots two soaks and not a single legal dungie, but about 70 females and 8 rocks.

Boy it sure is worth spending the money for license and gear isn't it?
