Cape May Green Crabs

Miss Chriss Marina

Jersey Bait and Tackle. 1st and New Jersey ave. North Wildwood.

You do not need to buy them save your money.
Get or make a trap or 2 and you can catch all you need in a few hr's. Set you traps around some of the local bridges, bulkheads or docks. When you are waiting throw some lurs and you may even catch some late season bass.

Good luck, I will be smackin some tog on fri. and maybe Sun.

Vinny,

This may be a stupid question, but what do you use to bait the trap? Thanks for the help. V

I am doing great now, how have you been? Don't worry I will never tell. I caught alot of crabs at that spot this year.

Vinny,

Good to see you back on the Barn.

At what temp do the green crabs dig in mud? Are they trapable all winter? can we just get them from the bluecrab draggers?

VOLKANMAN,
Your marina is loaded with them. Throw any kind of garbage in the trap for them to eat. Once one goes in there, scores will follow even if the bait is gone. I put 4 hotels at my slip and in 24 hours I could have 100 green crabs. I also got alot of baby fluke and sea horses in the traps. They are ugly, and they stink, but alot of different species love eating them. HAPPY DAYS.


Ding

Thanks for the advice guys.....I'll give it a shot. Have a happy and healthy new year. Skip, Stickols and I will be starting out the year in style tomorrow aboard the Stalker.

VOLKANMAN,
If your gonna purchase crab hotels. Go to Haase's on the Maurice river(Sponsors of TBB), they have real good ones and at a great price. HAPPY DAYS.


Ding

Doesn't stink, when you can't buy bait!!!!!!!!
