Full Crab Pot in 10 Minutes
Спорт
This short video shows how quickly my crab pot got full of big crabs. This video was shot with a Gopro Hero 7 camera that was mounted to my pot. You can see crabs crawling on the ocean floor as they climb into the pot, and eat the bait. The pot was soaked for 40 minutes, which I found out later that it was too long and should have pulled up sooner.

I'm new to this channel and not disappointed at all. This is the second video I've seen and I already love the content, can't wait to see more👍

We just went this past weekend to bandon. Took my boys over and we caught 12 at 7 inches Dungeness crab.you always have some awsome pulls no matter what pots you use
That was pretty cool to see. it can be a learning experience maybe. to know to bring it up sooner. awesome job!
PK, I did have a friend that had a live feed camera on his boat and he could sort of pick and choose what fish he would go after. It was fresh water so it was a clearer picture. Always kind of felt like cheating to me though. I do send your vids to a friend just to show how often we should be pulling up our snares. I was dazzled at how fast the crabs get to the bait and it explained why we often came up with an empty bait box. Now I cast one snare and let it soak while I'm baiting the other one. As soon as the second snare is cast I pull the first one up. All because of you guys take the risk of losing your go pro to show us the speed a carb will get to your bait!
Wow!!! Great video as usual PK....
Thanks for sharing love too a trap just raking it in but like you said wanna be able to see underway and know when to pull it up!
Awesome, heartwarming video.
great video!! I cant wait to start crabbing, I dont have a boat so, Ill be surf and off piers etc.
Great video, thank you
thanks. I won't be using that type of crab pot in the future. That was a bait robbery for the most part.
I so love living on the west coast.It's just like living in wonderland.
I just got a trap last week, just threw it out and came online to see what to do next. I'll be right back!!

4:44 that big crab actually PUSHED the crab in front of it. That was almost an intelligence shining thru. Such a clumsy bottom feeder on autopilot except when I see that push.
Interesting! I go crabbing a lot too. Well, I used to more. Now I go out fishing on the ocean whenever I can. It’s all pretty much fun, especially when the catching is good. I posted a video of my trip last Saturday.
Incredible!
This reminds me of what a fishin shop told me about using rings: "Only let them soak for 10-20 minutes"

So many crabs in such a short time! If you would test an area with one one pot for ten minutes and then move to a different location if you saw little results. If the pot is full in ten minutes drop the rest of your pots close by and then just start hauling and culling. Time and fuel efficient.
Good of you to feed all those crab

Man the scent from that bait just drives them insane! Sped up the video is pretty creepy lol.
Note to self, use a different style of pot. That's an amazing haul in such a short time. Too bad they escaped.
Jezz, that was a good spot!
I cannot believe that net would've been able to catch that many! If I get lucky, I'm usually at 3 max!
I somehow thought you were maybe watching this live on your phone through the GoPro app and I was thinking why the hell is he waiting so long to pull it up.
imagine if you could attach a wire to a floating antenna that would broadcast the video to you so you'd know when to pull the pots
okay so the firsts 10 min are the best moment to pull trap of the boat

I was blown away how fast it filled. Please try slip ring traps. Crabs CAN'T escape when pulled! Mount Go Pro facing down where 3 ropes connect. I don't use a light. 50' down on a sunny day.
Would you recommend this pot for crabbing off the docks? I'm going to be going grabbing at the end of the month, and want to know if i should get one or just keep using my pots.
I know I am late but I can swear that with a gopro you can have a live feed going. Might want to look into that!
There were some monsters in that pot... Safe Journeys and Enjoy Life...😷😷😷
Ive always run my pots at 20 minut intervals, but now im thinkin that im gonna have to pull my pots every ten minuts
Need the bait boxes in the corners
When I was much younger man I worked as a sternman on a lobster boat up here in Maine. For us crabs were the enemy. They would get in the traps and eat all the bait. The old guy I worked for would have me put a crab on the bait string along with the regular bait. He said it would keep the other crabs from coming into the trap. I'm not sure it really worked, but we did it anyway. We would set a string of traps in an area we knew the crabs were use those for the day. He would let a 10 trap string soak overnight, and when we hauled them the next day we would have tons of them to use. I've seen a 4 foot trap come over the rail so stuffed with crabs both inside and clinging on the outside that you could not see the trap itself. It literally looked like a huge ball of crabs. All so I could kill them and use them as both bait and deterant. One man's trash is another man's treasure, I guess.

This guy cleans up like nobody else I've ever seen. It's all about those aforementioned factors. Crabs are there, this is evident from the numerous divers who have surveyed the floor of most oregon coast bays (nehalem, coos bay, tillamook, etc.)

That's just nuts! Our weather is so bad in WA during fall that you need a big boat to go out. We get the low pressure systems coming off the gulf of Alaska and they are what I would compare to a tropical storm in Louisiana where I am originally from. Is your weather half decent in OR to go out on a 20’ boat or less?

The swells here are usually rough. I've only been out twice in my 16 foot boat into open ocean. Low swells in the 1-2 foot is ultra rare here.
I definitely learned a lot from your video. 1. Hoop pots need to be checked every ten minutes. It may be more work but you'll get five times more crabs. If you hadn't made the video, the end result of just a few crabs would have been misinterpreted to mean there weren't very many crabs around. 2. I can envision that fishing with just two hoop traps, checking every ten minutes or less, one would work their ass off. But they would go home with a limit of crabs in less than an hour. 3. Heavy rebar construction is much better at keeping the crabs from lifting the trap off the bottom. Your lightweight trap was easily lifted by the crabs allowing them to feed from below. 3. A heavy-duty small-mesh bait box will allow your bait to last much longer. These crabs are amazing when it comes to robbing the bait.
Good trap very much crab
Wow that's a lot of crab you need a bigger trap

Hiya! I have just started crab hooping. Yay! And, I have the same issue. HOW DO I KNOW THAT CRABS ARE IN MY HOOP? Yesterday, crabs took ALL my bait, and I had no idea that they were even there. So, I've been thinking about setting up a rigged floater system. I tie a floater/small buoy to a piece of bait, in my case, sardine. When the crab eats the sardine, the buoy is released and floats to the top. Then I can wait a few mins, before pulling it up.
Can you tell me which area you lay out the nest?

Where is this
On a dock in Maryland in like canal or river set at dock put my chicken bones was eating in my trap . Hand trap 4 doors let slack ropes hold for 10 minutes you can feel them walking in pull up bunch blue crab . Maine has bait bags tighter mess my buddy always in the evening he was making bait bags in living room. He also built 2 wood boats 39 an 44 lobster boat .
How deep is the crab pot ?
hey i have a question! About a year ago i was using the same net, i waited about 15 mins to pull it and i came up with about 13 keeper crabs in the net, but the problem was they were all dead. did i do something wrong does this happen alot?
@oregonlife

Hmm. Not sure. Never had dead crabs in the pot before.
Great video with full crab ring within 10 minutes. Unfortunately, the crab ate up all the bait and left before you pulled it out of the water. Maybe invest in a crab bait bag or container to make you bait last longer and the crab will not leave so soon. I noticed in most of your crab videos, you load up your crab pot bait container like you intend to feed the crab vs just to attract the crab.
Wow
LOL, he listed every thing except that particular pot.
Do you mind if I use this video with a voiceover for my channel? I want to do one on the crabs in a bucket mentality

It would be interesting to have a bigger net 10ftx10ft layed down first and drop the crab basket on top. Then at 10 min pull the 10x10 net and get them all... Food 4 thought... ;-) BTW you could attach old junk fishing poles to the sides of the 10x10 to make it lay flat on the bottom...
