Catch and cook dungeness crab - how to catch crabs on Oregon coast

  • Another short video on how to catch and cook crabs. September is one of the best time to catch crabs on the Oregon coast. They migrate into bays along the coast and are easy to catch with crab pots and crab rings. I use chicken for bait, and set my pots down in about 15 foot of water.
    I also show how to I setup my pots and what ropes and what tide to look for. The best tide for crabbing is an incoming high tide.

    I was just at Seaside and was able to catch around 30 perch over a few trips using your method. Thank you for teaching it to me.

      That was on three outings; 2, 19 and 11. I fished from the turn around to north a few hundred feet. I did best about an hour before high tide, with high tide occurring 2 hours after sunset.

    Nice catch! Our record came out of Bandon. Four people, 8 pots and 96 legal crabs in one pull. We had to release four limits of legal crabs. The crabs were absolute giants too. State Police was checking boats at the dock. They measured a couple then said, "No reason to measure those". I said "those are the small ones" and opened the second ice chest with the largest crabs in it. They just laughed.

    When I used to do commercial blue crabs in TX, when pulling traps I would spin the boat in a circle. This way you are only pulling against the center of the circle instead of against the boat and current. We hand pulled about 200 per day this way.

    @marzsit9833 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    i used to boil crab all the time but have switched to using a tiered steamer which keeps the crab out of the water during cooking, i find it keeps more flavor in the crab and it has a better texture, doesn't get mushy. my steamer has 2 trays and is big enough to cook 2 limits at once, which is pretty cool for beach parties. even though the crab isn't in the water if you add old bay seasoning the flavor still permeates the crab as well as if it was boiled in it. the steamer is also great for melting the butter.

    @spidermight8054 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Lived in Coos Bay for 20 years, mostly in Charleston/Empire area. I was a commercial fisherman on big trawlers (nets), catching bottom fish, shrimp, and occasionally tuna (with hooks/lines). Never crabbed from a boat in the bay. I always just sat at the end of the docks and tossed crab rings. Almost always caught legal ones. It just takes time, so bring a 12-pack. It used to be legal to crab off Oregon docks without a license. Don’t think that’s true anymore. Furthermore, I always thought you’d have to leave the bay (cross the bar) to catch rockfish!
