Watching Dealiest Catch, and Captain Phil of the Cornelia Marie starts telling his crew, one way he finds the best crab, is by there farting.

Yep, he says, there gaseous little critters, and all you gott a do is find where there are lots of tiny little bubbles coming up to the surface, and smell for poop, and there be the crab.

He dropped a string where he found gaseous little stinky bubbles. It should be interesting to see if he lands on the crab, by sniffing there farts...........

Lerb21 · July 1st, 2009, 02:00 AM

This is Phil Harris we're dealing with...

Who is cool, but ridiculous...

"Now you know why Lions eat their young."

He's a hell of a skipper though. I hope his health improves.

tazzboy · July 1st, 2009, 02:45 AM

Yeah I kind of chuckle when I heard say that then I thought "OK Phil, lets see if you are right or full of fart's" and I found out he was right.

mudshark · July 1st, 2009, 05:21 AM

Does Capt. Phil bite the bubbles?

FMA · July 1st, 2009, 09:10 AM

Those of us in the mid-Atlantic region -- and Maryland specifically -- know that crab farts smell like Old Bay.

Okay, I think I've seen the most bizarre thread ever now!

PraiseCaster · July 1st, 2009, 01:26 PM

Yeah, Phil definitely landed on the crab! Followed there farts all the way to them!

There's one reason I'm sure he was joking. Would a competitive skipper have given up the goods like that? A little screen time for a secret he can use for the rest of his life?

I am sure that such a thing is not a secret. Well, it would be a secret in the sense that "Lunker bass tend to hide in cover" is a secret or "Trout can be picky about what they eat" is a secret.

Sort of like the secret that tele lovers tend to spend time on this site.

If it was a consistent and effective method I would think there would be a "sniffer" instead of a depth finder on the boat.

We're talking alot of money here...

brandt · July 1st, 2009, 02:23 PM

do crabs blame their farts on the dog?

just wondering...

twangcaster1 · July 1st, 2009, 02:26 PM

No, they blame their farts on their Dogfish...... Or their Catfish.

brewwagon · July 1st, 2009, 02:34 PM

i was at the beach yesterday these two young ladies were having a shower/ rinse infront of me i waited in line
teasing

I am sure it is as consistent and effective as fishing under cover for lunker bass. You would still need a depth finder, even if there was a "crab fart sniffer machine", because the traps can only be fished so deep.

Hey, the pro bass fishermen fish a lot under cover, and they always seem to be bringing up big bass. When I do it, I get lost lures and many "grass-bass". I am sure every crap smelling bubble in the ocean is not crab. But that one might look for said bubbles as a partial predictor of potential success actually makes sense.

Is it possible he was just kidding. Yeah. Is it possible he uses such a sign as a method to find crab. Yeah.

As for a sniffer, I have worked with "sniffer" technology (toxic gas monitoring systems), and the sensors you would need are expensive and finicky to maintain, and in this case you would need methane and several aromatics that would only go off together. Probably not as accurate as using your nose. But, an interesting idea.

Sterling Indigo · July 1st, 2009, 03:01 PM

geoff_in_nc · July 1st, 2009, 03:04 PM

He must have great eyes to be able to see fart bubbles on the surface of a churning sea.

Just sayin.

:^)

I had some boiled blue crabs over by Hunting Island, over the on the Atlantic side near Parris Island. I can assure you, even with Old Bay they tasted like s**t.

smsuryan · July 1st, 2009, 06:33 PM

I own some hermit crabs and im sure glad they dont "make bubbles"..or atleast big enough ones to run me out of the room....ewww

Now you're talking! I'll leave the training regime up to you.

Hey, a trained crab sniffing pig would even be better.

Would the bait guy also have to deal with the pig droppings?
