. . . Cruising aboard "Miss Janet" !

The crabbing part of the Miss Janet nature trip consists of visiting some crab traps that we have placed in Wolf Bay. Captain Skip will explain and show how blue crabs are taken recreationally and commercially in the bays of Alabama.

You will learn about the life cycle of blue crabs. Hopefully you will see blue crabs.and perhaps more when a trap is brought up and we check the contents. Sometimes the trap will contain fish, along with crabs. You will also learn a little about stone crabs. You'll probably see Skip add bait to the trap just before we continue on our way.

Keep you eyes and cameras ready as the dolphin are probably checking us out as we prepare for the next aspect of the Nature Tour: Shrimping.
