We are thinking about going for a weekend after the 4th. When does the crabbing off the beach get good? Will it be too early or is now a good time?

I read on FB that they're on the beach now. Just need to watch the moon phase and wind/tides to pick the best day

I'm not sure where yall catching at, but we and our neighbors crab every weekend on the beach. It is very slow. About 6 dozen an hour. It usually gets good early August. We did better in early June. Not seeing anyone catching on the beach.

Bitch was HUGE

Caught about 15 last weekend over 2.5 days. One cage trap and just caught some others netting off the beach bottom walking.

Crystal clear water and was the first time ever I didn’t step on a single crab all weekend. Very slow, but you can scratch out a few if you keep after em

Been crabbing in GA and SC my entire life (since I was 5) and have never seen it as bad as it is right now. Cannot catch a meal.

usually the best time to catch crabs in Grand Isle is after midnight during the Tarpon Rodeo
