This is my solo crabbing Trotline setup I use in the Chesapeake bay to catch Maryland crabs. It's really inexpensive and easy to make plus helps keep your bait fresh. It saves time and no tangles. Plus you don't need to rely on anyone to help you catch blue crabs.

Thanks for sharing How big are the spools and how many feet do they hold? Thanks for your response

@thatguy-AB 2 месяца назад

The spools are 12" by 12" and hold 600 feet of line each plus the extra 100 feet of anchor lines.

@livingtheriver Год назад

Nice tips. Thanks for sharing!

@thatguy-AB Год назад

I have several more tips I'll be posting this coming crabbing season.

@ClaytonByerly 14 дней назад

Can you tell us what size pvc you made it out of

@thatguy-AB 14 дней назад

@@ClaytonByerly I used 1-1/4" because it fit the center of rope spools well.

I made another video of demonstrating the line out on the boat. Here's the video. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-BpOzI9w5AdQ.html

How long is your trot line?

@thatguy-AB Год назад

It holds 600ft. I normally run two 600ft lines so I can cover either two different locations or two different depths.

@brianbrown9102 Год назад

Nice video. Have you tried using this with clam bags by chance? Wondering if it would work with them?

@thatguy-AB Год назад

I have not yet. Future video I guess.

@chriss8206 Год назад

Are you crabbing the Chesapeake Bay I'm gonna try my first-hand at crabbing and the chincoteague Bay trappe Creek area or Newport Bay. If you're in that area and can offer advice I love to have some

@thatguy-AB Год назад

Yes I am crabbing the Chesapeake Bay Area mostly around the Bay Bridge. Sometimes the west side and sometimes the east side. I might consider meeting up in these areas to offer some tips.

@chriss8206 Год назад

@@thatguy-AB Thanks for the offer maybe someday but for my first trip out we're chincoteague Bay area and sienupuxent Bay area around the bridge to assateague island. It's a little less dangerous than Chesapeake for a noob.

@tcat5933 Год назад

Thanks for the help. Do you have any pictures of the retrieval apparatus? Is it constructed of PVC as well?

@thatguy-AB Год назад

This is both the deployment and retrieval apparatus. I'll be posting a video of how it works on the boat when the crabs are going good probably June. This weekend I'll be testing some spots with traps to see if the crabs are in that area yet.

@patricklipowski33 Год назад

I was wondering what it looks like myself, I wasn't able to see the pictures you posted, do you mind sending me or posting a picture of it here ..?? Thank you

@thatguy-AB Год назад

@@patricklipowski33 I'll be making another video showing the entire process in the next month. Until then I'll be laying crab traps until they get in the shallow waters.
