To the guy who emptied my crap trap and through it back in upside down.

I placed a trap at southwind marina far from any others I saw, out if the way, after being told no one would mind us fishing or crabbing a little there. That being said some thief or punk not sure which decided to empty it and return it wrong side up. Now if your a resident you could tell me you dont think I should be in there permission or not. If your a thief your talkin wont do anygood. Either way I catch a man touching my trap again you will be taking a swim I promise that.

Not saying perp is a member here but just in case.

The "theif" likely was someone who lives there and thinks that he can take from any trap in the marina. My boat has been there from 1991-1995, and from 2004-present, and I've never been as dis-satisfied with the some of the personel there. Someone raids traps there all the time and thinks that noone else should even be crabbing. Anyway, this private marina has become something else entirely.

Tie a bunch of treble hooks down your buoy line. That'll get his attention.

I had friends that would crab in waters where others fished and they were worried they would be checked, so they just dropped traps with no rope and would gaff them with a flying gaff, is this legal these days or do they have to be marked... or maybe a lil "roulette" of not being seen.
