Grandpa let me help drive the boat in the bay. But I was happy just hanging out on his lap.
I liked driving over the bar. The ocean waves were rolling like hills under the boat. It was fun! When we got close Mommy took over driving and Grandpa and I got ready to haul in the first float.
As we saw it coming over the side there were so many crabs in the pots. How exciting! Grandpa handed me the crab measure and told me I could help measure all the keepers! Sounded like an important job. First I watched how he did it.
Then it was my turn to measure the crab. They were HUGE!
I tried to help Grandpa pick them up but they squrimed around so much it was hard. Notice Grandpa has the heavy duty gloves on and I am doing this bare handed!
Then we went to pick up the other pots and I helped measure those crab too!
Grandpa tried to hand me a crab that was too small. He wanted me to throw it over the side of the boat so it could grow bigger. Umm...no thanks! Those pinchers are B-I-G! So he threw it overboard for me.
I was having so much fun crabbing!
Waiting patiently to measure the next pot.
We had so many keepers they were trying to crawl out of our buckets!
Mommy and I holding some of our keepers! They measured bigger than the California size crabs!
