Oregon Dungeness CrabKnow About CrabbingBook a trip with Billy Davis - Local Guide
Depending on the time of year we may set out crab pots while fishing in the Pacific ocean. The reason for this should be obvious, we want to send you home with some delicious Dungeness Crab.
Dungeness Crab are the most popular of crab species found off the Oregon coast. They grow to a decent size, much larger than a Blue or Stone Crab.
To catch them we use a crab pot which has some bait inside to attract the crab. We soak the pots for a few hours and then pull them to the surface. Many times the pot is completely filled with crab and then the chore is to separate out the large male crab as all the others need to be released back into the ocean.
