    PEA CM1 Crab Master II Crab Cleaning Machine

    Yes Sir, I have seen that before and thought about investing in one. However, being from the Chesapeake Bay and eating crabs all my life. By the time you get the crab that is ready to be put in the Crab press(ie pul shell off, pull lungs off etc)' I can almost clean them by hand that fast. I crab alot but usually just catch what I am going to eat steamed. I usually buy the crabmeat when I make crab cakes. It is a neat idea though.

    They are out there!! We caught this double limit last Friday less than 15 miles from where your dock probably is!!! Just keep looking and you will find them!

    Nice catch JC. I thought about you last Saturday. Charles and I were fishing and had ten rods out. We hit a school of white perch and every rod bent down at the same time. I know you are the perch king, but we had a crazy few minutes on the boat.

    Brian--nice catch with those crabs. I love a good crab boil with Old Bay, but my wife likes them better picked. I am no good at picking and saw some guys using the Crabmaster at a campground, so I bought one. A couple of years ago, my wife and I went down to the Morehead City area with some string and my long crappie net. With just some chicken legs, we caught around 50 and then I processed them with the Crabmaster. I was able to find the recipe for crab cakes from the Legal Seafood Restaurant and we had several good meals.

    JC--you have enough crappie fishermen in your area that you could pull together several tournaments. Like you saw on New Year's at Harris Lake, it is a fun day and have a chance to meet some good people.

    Nice catch!!! I am just curious if they are in the top of the rivers off the sound(like yeopim) or can they be at the mouths or anywhere in between? I'm at the mouth of the yeopim.

    Dennis I wish I had the time to Head a Tournament Trail up. I have asked a few people about it and can hardly get a response from them. Alot of these guys around here are very tight lipped and I think they feel that they will be giving up there spots BUT I may try to do it with in the next couple of years if I can get some help from another local Crappie fisherman! By the way, I would have loved to have been a part of the perch catching you guys did!!!! Sure brings back the New Years tourney memories! !!. I sure hope I can make the next New Years tournament that you guys have!!!

    You should be able to find them in the mouth where you are at!!! Also dont forget about the mouth over by the Plantation that should be holding some as well!!!!
