Lobster season - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

The crab we get in SoCal are red and yellow rock crabs, not dungeness. They are open year round with a bag limit of 25 and size of 4" across the back. They're tasty but a lot of work...

And then there's spider crabs. I've never kept 'em but a few guys do. I'd just toss them back.

Good luck!

Didn't realize I was looking at the wrong crab....thanks for the correction

I've kept less than a handful

, I wasn't impressed

. Don't get me wrong

, crab meat is delicious

but to me its not worth the trouble

, lobster on the other hand.........

P.S. this is one goes on the top of the THINGS TO BRING LIST, don't forget a pen, or two. Make sure its one that can write on a wet report card, I just use a fine point sharpie.
