LBI Crabbing & Fishing??

Haha, yea we caught lots of chicken too! And I prefer the sport of the hand lines too. We used hand lines with net, 2-door box traps, triangle traps (look like a pyramid with 4 triangular sides instead of a normal box shape) and we also had a few that were sort of like a mesh net with different sized metal rings (they lay flat, but as you pull the string, it opens up like a basket). So 4 methods in all.

Oh, and I think I spent about 2 full hours of my crabbing time fixing broken strings and stuck trap doors, lol. I swore when I left that next time I'm going to make my own traps and leave those junkers at home. :mad:

ringtraps are the circular ones.

topless traps are also very popular since you can stack 15 of them together and it only takes up 4 feet of space/1 square foot wide.

We didn't catch anything the one morning we went out.

That boat in the first picture is from the beach replenishment that is going on.
