Nowhere in your incoherent rambling did you come close to what can be considered a rational thought. Everyone is now dumber having heard it. I award you no points and may God have mercy on your soul.

Where are you headed? I have never shimped before. I have done crabbing and clam digging.

Will be dropping the pots on the southern end of Lopez island. That's about all I know. My buddy and his family have been doing this for many years. He has family that live in mount vernon. He said he would also take me out after crab later in the summer. I've never done that either. All I need now is to get some razor clamp and I'll be set, lol.

This is our haul from Christmas night. I was about 120 total. We went out the next day also. If you get any extra dungies I would be happy to pick them up. ;)

If we get more than my family will eat, I'd be more than happy to give ya some. So long as I can get some of those clams ;)

Very rough seas this weekend. But for my first time shrimping I had a blast! Managed only 145 for 4 people in two days, but still a fun time. You know the seas are bad when the boat owner, who's been doing this for 25+ years, got sea sick the first day, :lol: . We where in an 18' duckworth in about 6'-8' seas. Glad I took alot of dramamine.

That looks good. Sounds like a crazy ride.
