Nice job on the video there. I'll be back up in the Sitka area fishing this year myself. Nice Kings and Halibut you had there. I did good for Kings in that same spot myself last summer. Had a real good Silver day farther East of there. Good luck on future trips.

As already commented, Deadliest Catch never showed this. And they have more camera gear than anyone. This is so fascinating. I never realized how smart they are. Makes me feel bad when people drop them into scolding hot water and boil them alive. I imagine they feel every ounce of that pain. I remember living in FL and we cooked crab. You could literally hear them scream when they hit the boiling hot water

Love all the awesome sunflower starfishes. It appears to me when the food was at the bottom they had to come into eat and was easier to eat then hanging upside. That one pot I watched, yes I watched another pot, it had it on the bottom which made more sense. First nothing could eat it unless they came in, when it’s on the top it looks like anything could snack on it from the top and never come in. Also when it was on the bottom the amount of crabs and fish chowing was amazing. They all wanted a piece and could climb over each other vs more limited space when you have to hang. Just an observation. I would just put the food cage to the bottom and not the top and do a experiment. Just seems more inviting to crabs, because everyone wants to be where the crowd is, and it everyone is hanging from the top no one will see them. Want those crabs to have fomo!

BrO! You have your pot UPSIDE DOWN.. The bait is suppose to be at bottom of cage.. The crabs can feed on top without even entering the cage.. Also you need weights zip tied alone the bottom of your cage to keep it right side up.. see your doors are suppose to open inward from the top ,so when the crabs get in they fall down so when another crab comes in, a different one can't escape.. also if your pot gets moved around, and sand is builds up in front of the doors..the crabs can't open them.. But yeah Bro.. your pot is Upside Down my man.

I wonder how many shrimp you would get if you didn’t stop pulling until the last pot was aboard, because from the moment you disturb the pots, the shrimp go crazy trying to escape. Every time you stop, you lose more! Ever notice your last pots have fewer shrimp in them?
@TanagirlAK2 жыл бұрын
That’s a very good question Roger I’ve never thought of it that way. The hole they use to get in the pot is just open and doesn’t have a hatch that closes when they enter. I suppose it’s possible they could escape..hmmm! Might have to do some research this summer and see how it goes. I’m intrigued! Thanks for watching and thanks for the comment!
