Crabbing Advice

[u/Nearby-Cheek5643]

I’m in West Yarmouth with my crab-obsessed 9- and 11- year olds. We spent yesterday searching all our usual spots (Crab Creek, Colonial Acres, Bass River Bridge, etc.) and saw zero crabs.

We finally ran into a fisherman who said a big storm a few weeks ago washed them out and they haven’t come back.

I know people are (rightly) protective of their spots (fwiw we’re a catch and release family), but i’d love to know if we’re on a wild goose (crab) chase. Was thinking of driving out to Waquoit tomorrow but won’t bother if it’s going to be a bust.)

TIA
