Ooops. Meant prawn pot :) The pots here for Dungeness crabs are at around 50-100ft and easy enough to pull. Spot prawns are 250 to 350ft and pulling it manually is back breaking - hence this boom rig.
Lots of deep water here in Howe Sound and the Strait of Georgia > 1000ft. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: "Della Barba, Joe" <joe.della.ba...@ssa.gov> To: "cnc-list@cnc-list.com" <cnc-list@cnc-list.com> Cc: Bcc: Date: Mon, 8 Jan 2018 14:17:28 +0000 Subject: Re: Stus-List pulling a crab pot using a boom +1 Crab pots here are in 4-20 feet of water usually. The deepest water I can possibly find is 189 feet or so off the south end of Kent Island.

In my area, when you see crab trap buoys, you're in LESS than 10 feet of water. Dennis C.
