Lying in wait just below the mean low tide line are thousands of creepy creatures, waiting to invade your crab pot... Still others wait for extremely low tides to expose them to innocent passersby in kayaks out for a morning stroll to the nearby reefs and rock outcroppings. Slimy stuff.
Although we were hoping for a few Dungeness crab, we were the recipients of several purple sun stars, including this large beast in Nancy's grasp. Or should I say, this large beast grasping Nancy?
Whoa! Mondo close-up, bro!
And here we have a fine specimen. The sneaky Graceful Decorative crab that founds its way into our Dungeness pot. Skinny little exoskeletal legs and all. Eventually, we caught a few legal male Dungeness, only one of which made its way to the dinner table, alongside wild Alaskan salmon, freshly picked nettles, and a handful of wild blueberries to boot. The Omnivore's Dilemma resolved! (For a night).
