Slow day yesterday with the yak. Only caught 4 but one was a guage buster so I can't be too disappointed...


Nice crab Joystix! Are you using a loop net or snare?

It must be tough pulling them up from the yak, how deep are you? When we use ours from the boat offshore (65-70’) we have to weight them, otherwise the current and swell will make them “walk”. We’ve had to pull some by hand when the puller went down and it was very hard (plus we’re old), I couldn’t imagine doing it sitting in a yak.
