It's a wrap on the 1st week of the 2020 salmon season as it is now closed and scheduled to reopen May18th. Thank you for all the orders and welcome smiles at your homes.
Our daughter did AMAZING with her 1st 12 days on the job, never complaining and always giving 110%. In total, 79 fish were landed, countless seals were fed ;) and numerous whale shows witnessed. There were some bad weather days and some days with not many fish caught.
Any deliveries we failed to produce are automatically moved to the next round after the 18th. During this week 5/13-5/17 energy will be focused on Halibut/Lingcod/Rockfish. However, swell is pounding until at least the weekend which is going to produce minimum to no results on halibut grounds~Lingcod will most likely be the ticket.
Those with pre-existing Halibut orders will be contacted. Thanks again, Stay well, Stay healthy!!
For orders please text Raina at 831-252-1776!

Hello and thank you for your intrest in helping us support Local Dungeness Crab Fishermen. The delay/closure on harvesting Crab for these guys is huge! These fishermen and their families count on this time of year to bring in the majority of money needed for their annual cost of living. That s...

Our commercial Dungeness Crab season is delayed after tests find high levels of domoic acid. The closure will remain in effect indefinitely until testing determines that levels of domoic acid, a natural occurring neurotoxin that can accumulate in shellfish and other invertebrates, have returned to safe levels. The closure extends from Santa Barbra to the Oregon-California border.

In this case, no news is bad news! The ocean is Pi**in mad and isn't giving up anything within her grasp. Swells & seas have kept us grounded & when we do get out, well it's minimal at best!
Looks like this cute little fisher family is gunna be eating rice for awhile..

11/19/2014

Whew!!! What a stressful opener! Now that it's calmed to a gentle roar I thought I'd post some pictures.. This has been a phenomenal opener!!
Frankly & understandably fishermen & buyers were Ill-prepared. We're talking 24 hour offloading lines, buyers working day & night & a plethora of other "situations" that can only be appreciated if you're in the business. That being said, we are grateful, exhausted and thankful for our deckhands that have charged the situation.. The Captain comes home for a day after bring gone a week. Family is excited to see him!

11/06/2014

Unless a strike forces a delay, Dungeness Crab season opens November 15th!!
Hope to see all your happy faces come the weekend. It's going to be crazy fun
& makes for a great family day!!
Don't forget, Pillar Point harbor in 1/2 Moon Bay has your best crab connections!!!

Baiting up!!!

01/20/2014

Boys are out in full force on this gorgeous day and it's a great day to bring some crab home for dinner. Super easy, just text me how many you'd like for your dinner & I'll text you back what time the boys will hit the docks! We're in our home port of Santa Cruz so it doesn't get much easier than that. I'll show you, text/call 831-252-1776.

01/17/2014

Our boys are back home Santa Cruz!!!! We plan to stay the remainder of the season unless conditions change. This means local deliveries & pick ups are that much easier. We all love the beauty & vibe of 1/2 Moon Bay but let's face it, it can be slightly isolated and when dinner plans suddenly shift, it can be travel prohibitive to get that crab or fish from your favorite fisher family.. Text or call me 831-252-1776..

What is better than buying fresh Salmon straight from the fisherman? Catching it yourself! We are now taking reservations for the upcoming Salmon season which opens April 5th. Message me here or text/call me 831-252-1776.

Our deliveries have sold out for the day but you can still get our amazing, deliciously fresh crab down at the docks. Our boys have been out since midnight pulling enough crab for all to enjoy this holiday. We will be at the docks until 2:30pm today, G-11. After that, there is no more until next year! ;-)

And don't forget to designate that driver and have a safe New Year!!!!

12/30/2013

Just when we think our job is all fun & games we find that not only crab love getting in our pots. These squid larvae decided to make sure we didn't get too comfortable in our day to day grind..Fun times aboard the Lauren Rose!

America's 10 Deadliest Jobs

At least we aren't number 1 any longer.. Coming in second can sometimes be a good thing!

If your work day sometimes seems to consist of nothing but boring meetings, coffee spills, and computer glitches, consider yourself lucky. Each year thousands of U.S. workers die from injuries on the job. In fact, the BLS just reported that there were 4,383 fatal work injuries in 2012. Here are the…
