Crabbing at Sunset

I've never been much of a fisherman. I don't even like eating fish. Crabbing was something Dad had showed us when we were kids. Crabbing the few times we went to the beach or, as I faintly remember, crabbing while visiting cousins down along the bay. A few years after I started taking my family to the beach we dug back into the memory bank and bought a simple net and some chicken necks. I think we let them all go, we were barely prepared to catch them and not at all ready to steam and eat them. This has become a must while beaching. Slow down. Toss the net and wait. Move down the dock. Toss the net. Out early in the day. Out late in the evening. Watching the sunset. Relaxing.
