    Capt Luke you truly are a very hard worker which is very honorable. I would like to thank you for showing us what you are doing and why on your boat. I had no idea that it was that much work and the method you have. Very impressive to me for such a young man.

    I grew up in MD, every summer/ fall family get together we had crabs.
    I'll be driving from WV (almost Ohio) to visit. Plan on buying crabs to take back with me. It's been 4 years,.... bless you guys!!

    I grew up around there. Lord I miss those sweet little critters ,use to go out in the marshes with my grandpa an just dip them up with a long pole with a hoop net on the end at the end of the day with another crew we would have enough to feed half the campground. We did that back in the 60s,70s family reunion at a KOA campground. Great work keep the faith Luke hard work pays off in so many ways

    New to watching your videos and have found them interesting with a sense of humor. Have you ever considered having a raffle with the winner being able to spend a day with you and your crew actually crabbing. I know from watching that it would be a tiring day and maybe disappointing in terms of the catch, but I would definitely buy a ticket for a chance to experience it. Thanks for showing what you do.

    My Family ran boats off North Beach Va , the fishery went bust and they went after blues, blue fish , and smoked . I'm extremely happy to see the blue crab fishery back but just 3 decades too late for my family/ Best of luck and Fair Winds ....o7

    I used to work in Fredericksburg Virginia, And my employer would take us over to Maryland for all we could eat blue crab. Twenty five guys can put away a lot of crabs😂 I told my boss I wasn't going to go because I wasn't in the mood for crab. He said I could order whatever I wanted. When my steak& shrimp showed up, the other guys were pissed😂😅

Steaming the pot after you bait it might be a problem.. taking the taste of the bait away.. But idk nothing! Good Luck brother.. stay safe out there!

    So the pots are rebaited, then dipped in hot water? I guess that doesnt affect the bait. I would have thought it would mess up the bait.

  • @shirleymae30
    @shirleymae30 Рік тому

    The first, and most obvious problem i see is that you are cooking or blanching your bait, by baiting the pots before putting the traps in the hot tank. Your catch rates will definitely increase if you do NOT cook your bait.

    • @shirleymae30
      @shirleymae30 Рік тому

      Also, if you add at least one herring, pogie, or mackerel in with your shrimp head bait in your pots, I guarantee they will fish better.
