Default Trout and Blue Crabs



Went out yesterday at our usual crack of noon start. No real mission, just out on the water to cool off. Got to a goto spot and there was someone there, so moved down a bit and decided to walk up crabs. No Luck. Moved across the bay to a crab spot and picked up two. Talked to a buddy on the phone, he told me about seeing crabs while he was fishing earlier.

Went there, picked up eight. Headed home, stopped at a spot and got two more to make a dozen. Stopped one more time at a point where my wife likes to hunt for indian pottery. While she was doing that, I caught some bait and went wade fishing.

Caught the trout on the second bait I threw out. Let the rest of the bait go and called it a day.

Sometimes the best plan is no plan.

Nice presentation in the photo. Wife find any artifacts? I hunt around here and around the lake. Found several arrowheads this week, most are broken and several pieces of pottery.

Now that is a nice picture, a nice catch and that's a meal, I mean the crabs, I don't like weakfish, trout as you call them. I stuff the crabs and bake them.
ENJOY

Not a lot of arrowheads on the coast, mostly just pottery. There are no rocks locally, just about everything here was made of shells. They would trade for flint, but kinda rare. You can find stuff in the creeks north of here, bout 20 miles off the coast.

My in-laws live in South Georgia and they find stuff in the fields after it s been plowed and rained on.


Wow,those looks good G. I steamed these and wife picked out the meat. We will probably make West Indies Salad out of these. Most of these were fat heavy crabs. Got about 1.5 lbs out of them.

My brother in law lives near wilmington in north carolina and has a secret coastal spot along a creek with lots of pottery and some sweet flint points. He finds so much pottery last time I talked to him he said he had stopped picking it up lol.

Flint is not very common around here in central NC so I have always guessed what I'm finding was traded in.
