CRABS
A Georgia Fishing license is required to harvest crabs for non-commercial purposes. Unless otherwise designated, saltwaters are open year-round for recreational crabbing. Recreationally caught crabs may not be sold.
Gear:
Up to six standard size crab traps (2X2 feet or smaller) may be used recreationally. Two unobstructed escapement rings (2 3/8 inch inside diameter) must be installed on an outside vertical wall. Each trap must be marked with a float bearing the owner's name and address. Traps should be sufficiently weighted to prevent loss in strong tidal currents. It is unlawful to place or set crab traps in the channel of any stream with a lawfully established system of waterway markers. Disposal of crab traps in public waters is a violation of State and Federal laws.
Subject to specific gear design criteria, sizes, time-of-day, and area restrictions outlined in these regulations, legal crabs may be taken recreationally year-round in seines and castnets.
Crab Catch Limits:
It is unlawful to take or possess any crab less than 5 inches from spike to spike across the back (other than a "pealer'' or a "mature adult female 11 crab). Peelers must measure at least 3 inches from spike to spike across the back.
Other than licensed commercial crabbers, no person may take or possess more than one bushel of crabs during any 24-hour period. No more than two bushels may be taken recreationally or possessed during a 24-hour period on a boat with more than one person aboard.
