Crabs at Holly Beach (eating kind)

[redaddiction]

Anyone hearing if crabs are being caught in the surf right now. May head out there end of the week for a couple days. Wind forecast looks good to for a little fishing opportunity.

Is that a bad thing? Other than you can't keep the ones with eggs?

[fishhawk]

not really, but a large percentage will have eggs.Seems like most crabs I catch in surf are skinny, not sure why. I prefer dirty 'ol marsh crabs.
Holly beach has a huge shift of sand, as of 3 weeks ago there were no bars and beach was eroded bad!

I heard the water is full of them, I would definitely take a shower and wash down there real good!
