More Greenies

[Giorgio]

Last Wednesday we went down to pick up some more Green crabs, we picked up another 1/2 bushel and put them in the containers. Saturday when Joe went down to do some Porgy fishing with his wife Maureen, he checked the crabs, 98% of them were dead. No one can figure out why, me, at first thought we were over loading the bins but we put more in them before. I think the water is still too warm (78-80), plus I don't think there is enough of oxygen in the water. I put the order in for Friday, I will be heading again to pick up another 1/2 bushel, some clams for Porgy's, a new and a bigger holding trap and we shall see what happens. We've had cooler day's and nights, maybe the water temp has dropped a bit?
