We headed out earlier than we originally planned to for hitting the slack tide in the afternoon because we'd read about there being a small craft advisory in the area we were headed to. We launched from Camano Island State Park & headed to our area. 3 people in the boat, but one forgot his CRC, so we were only able to drop 4 out of our 5 pots. (you are allowed 2 pots/person) We pulled about 45 crab in 3 pulls per pot and were only able to keep 5 as legal, hard shells. The rest were either females or soft.

We were out there approximately 3 hours. The wind was picking up as we left. You can certainly tell we are nearing the end of the summer season. But we had fun and will be back out again - hopefully they will give us a winter season this year.
