CRABBING ON THE EASTERN SHORE
w/Craig Hyatt

"I
caught a dozen crabs today from the
pier
in "The Sanctuary" in Ocean
Pines, which is
1 mile from my home.
The view from the pier
is on the Saint Martins Neck River into the Assawoman Bay and Ocean City. It was
beautiful today...just perfect. I
made my Maryland red
crab soup and it is awesome" |

Nice
coves, many
man-made structures
within walking distance
of where I parked.
They have a tot lot if
you bring kids on one
end of where I was.
some very nice quiet
spots to relax.
The water is very deep
and is stocked every
year. last year a
LMB was pulled at 11.6
lbs. one ounce
away from state record.
I talked with an older
man on a boat, he
pulled a 22" LMB
yesterday and a
20" LMB 2 days ago, I
asked him how deep he
was, he was in
16ft of water and was
about 15-20 ft
away from me....nice and
deep.
