Welcome to my channel!
On this episode, we're winter crabbing in Vancouvers harbour. We dropped our traps in 30 to 40 feet for water and soaked them for 4 to 6 hours. Although my camera only captured 1 hour and 20 minutes, I'm glad I was captured some footage of the feeding frenzy.
Helpful information
All anglers must have a tidal fishing license to fish tidal waters in BC. Children under the age of 16 are free but must still obtain a license.
The limit of crab possession is 4 (dungeness/redrock)
Dungeness crabs must measure at least 165 millimetres (6.5 inches) in width, 115 millimetres (4.5 inches) is the legal size for Red Rock crabs. The crab is measured along the widest points of its shell. The caliper shown in this video is the preferred way of measuring your catch.
Crab harvesting is only legal by use of trap, ring net, dip net or hand picking
You may use up to 2 rings, dip nets or traps in combination
You must immediately release all female Dungeness and Red Rock crabs. The female’s abdomen has a wide “beehive” shape; the male’s has a narrow “lighthouse” shape.
Anglers are also required to release all soft shelled crabs. These crabs shell will eventually harden and it is then deemed to be of higher quality for consumption.
