i have.

once.

i didn’t catch anything myself.

my boyfriend and a couple of friends of ours spent two days at it. they caught 39 crabs (well, those are the ones they kept) over those two days. they actually caught probably a couple of hundred crabs but you have to throw them back if they are female or less than a certain size.

i only joined them for about an hour at the end of their trip so i just shot photos of the experience.

i can tell you, it’s a tough job.

pulling up pots, searching through them and pulling out the small crabs (which are most of the catch) and trying to not get bit.

hopefully you are wearing gloves. especially since it’s probably overcast and chilly out. but also cause those crabs know how to pinch!

and its smelly work. turns out, crabs like to eat stinky old meat.

still, it’s fun being in the boat… to see the crabs… don’t you love how they move sideways? and their tiny little eyes. and their pretty colored shells. crabs are kind of adorable actually (once you get past that whole pinching thing)!

funny little creatures they are. tasty little creatures too. hehe!

so… word on the street is… i got a print shop all open for business and stuff.

true that, true that.

so go give it a gander. grab something up if you like it. or drop me a note if there is something specific you are looking for that you don’t see over there. i am happy to do custom orders.

cheers, friends. hope to see you around this ole place soon.

thanks for stopping by!
