crabbing in october?


every year i can mark the advent of fall when i don't see crab pots anymore: this year most were pulled up by mid-september. no crabs=no summer, or so i thought! saw this pod on current tv (even though it is a couple of years old) and thought it was interesting and great: i like the size of those crabs!

diamond jim still on the loose and worth $25k

this summer, three batches of 50 specially tagged striped bass were released into the chesapeake bay by the maryland state dnr with bounties on their heads paid to the lucky fisher-person who snagged them. sponsored by the 2009 fishing challenge, the fish release is supposed to encourage all people to enjoy nature. one of the tagged fish, diamond jim, is a special beast, valued at $25,000! i follow him on twitter.
