The Guys Went Crabbing...........



Kurt, Kearby, Marc, and Levi took off early this morning to do some crabbing on the pier under the Yaquina Bay Bridge.

The girls opted to stay, warm and dry at home.












This is the crab pot that you use to fill with bait (chicken) and toss in the water.

The guys had two of them. They did come home with one Rock crab, and one Dungenous.

Everyone had a great time.




Eurika! A Crab






This was a keeper. The guys said they had to throw many back in because you are not allowed to keep the females, and the crabs have to be a certain size in order to keep.

You pay huge fines if you don't follow the rules. The fish and game department is very serious about their animals. They keep them safe!











Pull-Pull-Pull..........You put raw chicken in trap, toss it in the water and WAIT. Then pull it in and see what is in there. Hopefully, lots of dungenous crabs.











Marc tossed out his pole, but not too much luck today.

Hanging Out .....Watching the Ducks...Oregon Ducks




Marc and Kenzie are warming up by the fireplace. He has uploaded every single "free" application on his iphone.

He also brought up his Xbox 3. Levi disappeared for most of the game.















But, when he did join the family, Levi got a turn on the the phone.













Kearby was teaching Kenzie how to play pick up sticks..... Our Ducks were losing on the TV.
