More Hoop'n video - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

ful-rac · 01-20-2014, 07:30 PM

So me and the boys have been having a lot of fun crab'n lately. It has been pretty productive, and a hell of a lot of work, both on the water and off the water. Filming our hoop'n trips has been amazing. You learn so much of what actually goes on down there, what the bottom looks like how the crabs behave, and how it all works. Even Greg has gotten into it...surprised the hell out of me. I'm glad he was there to pull some hoops though...during the day I got pinched hard, hard enough to get a nice cut and a black and blue fingernail....those things are really powerful...

Enjoy the video.

Awesome video.
I was know the dungeness crabs are great eatting, but I was wondering do you guys eat the spider crab too? Just wondering how they were to eating wise.

Spider crabs are good to eat as well, just alot of extra work to clean and crack. You will be surprised how good they taste....

Killer video. It was awesome watching the crabs riding the swell on the way to the pot, they can haul ass!

RobFish · 01-21-2014, 06:04 AM

Awesome! Awesome! Awesome!
I thought the first one was the big guy, as the second one wasn't as large.
Then the third came along, and I was like Whoa!
Well done.

That was the one that pinched him, so they got each other.

Thats a really cool camera set up. You know there's an app on the iphone that can give you live feed from your camera, I was thinking that this would be useful for knowing when to pull your net.
