Ok my last video journal of the project (everyone cheers!!) Day 13 final day, using sonar to find crab pots that had lost their floats. Grabbed pot 28, 29, 30 (& a bunch of old wood) More days we'd have more pots out. #crabs #kayak #kayaking #seafood #traps #chesapeakeBay #NNK

Day 12 was another day on the kayak using sonar to find crab pots that had lost their floats. Looking along the mouth of Ellyson Creek. There were more. If we had more days we'd have more pots out. #crabs #kayaks #seafood #lost #traps #chesapeakeBay #NNK

Put two old dilapidated commercial crab pots on the back of my kayak at one time. It was a little sketchy. 😄 #kayak #kayaking #river #seafood #losttrap #ghostpot #fishery #teamfish

Ghost Pot Progam - Day Six Pulling Out Lost Crab Traps . I made a ton of progress on increasing success of snagging pots we find on side scan. I modified my nail rope in a couple ways and improved performance. #bycatch #fish #crabs #kayak #kayaking #fishteam #chesapeakebay
