Rising tide and a pretty good incoming current.
I don't know that I'd like to deal with that much in my little boat.

You need to go just after low/incoming or at the top of the incoming/slack >Once the tide started moving, it REALLY slows down

I've always thought the Crabs bury themselves when it gets to ripping to keep from being washed away in the current.

Wow what a load great looking crab there.
