Crabbing at Menemsha

On Tuesday Amanda, my Mom, Matt, and I went to Menemsha to go crabbing.

This is a spider crab.  

In this picture, I am under the dock behind the ice cream shop.  

These are two green crabs

This is a black-fingered mud crab. 

Here is Grey sticking his hands in the rocks.  He is one brave boy.

In this picture we are measuring crabs.





I caught twenty-one crabs.  Most crabs I caught were one inch.  The least amount were three inches.



At Menemsha a big green fishing boat pulled up.  It had rays and flounders.  The rays were for lobster bait.

It was fun to have my Mom there.  











On Tuesday my friends and I also went boogie boarding at Stonewall Beach.

I just finished reading and rereading all your blogs, Grey. I can't believe that you are not afraid of all the creatures you have caught. Some of them look pretty scarey to me!! Thank you for teaching me about barnacles, and all types of crabs.
That mole crab was so different from the rest of the crabs. Enjoy the rest of your summer.
