Any suggestions for devices to make pulling crab traps easier?
The wind had picked up quite a bit during the day yesterday, such that my wife had to keep us in low idle forward gear as I was pulling the crab traps to keep us from being blown ashore. (Live in an area with deeeep channels and steep bottom topography). I'm 55 now and losing muscle mass...it was a grunt & my shoulders are sore today!
There's a bewildering array of solutions on that InterWeb thingy, from electric, to manual, to using anchor pulling buoys.
What's your solution?
