Well, we have been in Winchester Bay for eleven days and the crabbing has been awful. Last year we stayed here only eight days and we got over 150 legal-size crab, plenty to eat, freeze and can. This year, after having the crab traps out for ten days, we haven't even caught 40 legal-size crab. What a difference! Lots of little ones, females and seaweed but we had to throw all those back in. But the socializing has been fun and food at the potlucks has been great...just not many crab dishes.
We pulled the traps out this afternoon, will be cleaning up and packing up tomorrow and plan on leaving on Friday. We will take a relatively slow drive down to Coarsegold and should arrive at Park Sierra on Sunday.
The pictures are various shots of the area and the intrepid mariners. The last one is of Ken showing Janice what kind of boat and RV setup he wants. Can't catch crab, may as well dream!
Ain't life grand!
