Hello and welcome to my channel,
Today we launch from Cates park located in North Vancouver British Columbia. In this episode we explore the Indian Arm in search for crabs and prawns.
This video is focused on how to catch crab by boat by way of trapping. Please read through some important details listed in the description section and click the links below for more detailed information.
All anglers must have a tidal fishing license to fish tidal waters in BC. Children under the age of 16 are free but must still obtain a license.
The limit of crab possession is 4 (dungeness/redrock)
Dungeness crabs must measure at least 165 millimetres (6.5 inches) in width, 115 millimetres (4.5 inches) is the legal size for Red Rock crabs. The crab is measured along the widest points of its shell. The caliper shown in this video is the preferred way of measuring your catch.
Crab harvesting is only legal by use of trap, ring net, dip net or hand picking
You may use up to 2 rings, dip nets or traps in combination
You must immediately release all female Dungeness and Red Rock crabs. The female’s abdomen has a wide “beehive” shape; the male’s has a narrow “lighthouse” shape.
Anglers are also required to release all soft-shelled crabs. These crabs shell will eventually harden, and it is then deemed to be of higher quality for consumption.
The limit on prawns is 125 with a capability to use 4 traps per license. The retained prawns must be non-egg bearing. If it is bearing eggs, it must be released.
