How to catch King Crabs and Dungeness Crabs is a skill that anyone with an appetite for delicious crustaceans should learn. This is no deadliest catch people, its far better. King Crabs inhabit the North West Coast of Canada all the way up to and beyond Alaska. They are prized for their delicious meat and large size. They are so desired that they have even been the focus of a television series called "Deadliest Catch" Dungeness crabs on the other hand have not been featured in television. However, they are tasty as tasty can be and inhabit the entire length of Canada's BC Coast, as well as Washington, Oregon, California and Alaska. Crabbing is a fun way to put food on the table for coastal living people. There are 2 types of traps featured in this video. One is called a "hoop" trap designed to catch larger crabs such as the king crab which have a hard time fitting through the trap doors of the square traps more commonly used for red rock crab and Dungeness crab. Because of their open concept arangement "hoop" traps are designed to have shorter soak times and should be checked every 10 - 20 minutes. The square traps can be left for 12 hours or more but will catch crabs in as soon as 10 minutes depending on the tide, bait and abundance of crab in the area.
