Dave Anderson of Coupeville flips over a Dungeness crab to determine its sex on the opening day of recreational crab fishing on Puget Sound July 2. Female Dungess crabs, which have a wider abdomen, must be released. The crabbing season goes through Sept. 7.
GOING DEEP FOR DUNGENESS
Recreational crabbers share tips as season begins By Ron Newberry Staff Reporter
Twelve hours after dropping a pair of crab pots into Holmes Harbor, Dave Anderson is back on the water approaching a red-andwhite buoy, anxious to see what’s been crawling along the sea bottom and into the traps he’s set. A hearty pull on a rope reveals heavy resistance, which is a good sign and draws a smile from Anderson. Hand over hand, the rope is retrieved on to the boat, more than 100 feet in all. When the first crab pot reaches the surface, a cage full of 13 crazy-legged crustaceans are unveiled. All are big and feisty and not pleased by the sight of blue sky or Anderson, for that matter. It was quite a start to the 2015 Dungeness crab season for Anderson, an Admiral’s Cove resident, on the first day of recreational crabbing July 2. He and his wife drop pots in the harbor regularly. “It really is a kick,” said Anderson, who retired to Whidbey Island from Porterville,
Calif., three years ago. “Especially when you’re bringing up pots like this.” Crabbing in Puget Sound is one of Washington’s most popular recreational fisheries with sport fishers catching more than 1 million pounds of Dungeness crab each year from July to September. All waters around Whidbey Island as well as most of Puget Sound are open to crabbing. The season continues through Sept. 7. Not only do many crabbers consider the Dungeness catch a delicacy, another appeal is that success rates are higher than most other fisheries, including salmon fishing. “For catching crab, nearly any bait works, some better than others,” said John Hudson, one of North Whidbey’s resident experts on crabbing. “This is one of the highest-probability-of-success sportfishing endeavors. “You’d have to be pretty hard-pressed not to have success.” Hudson tries to get out on his boat several times a week to drop his crab pots between Strawberry Point and Polnell Point outside Oak Harbor and learn a little more about
the recreational crab fishery he’s enjoyed in Washington for nearly 40 years. He teaches crab seminars for the Deception Pass Sail & Power Squadron, using a PowerPoint presentation to share what gear to use, which methods to try, when and where to drop pots around Whidbey Island and every other imaginable detail to educate the local crabber. “Long soaks improve odds,” Hudson said. Hudson prefers to dig cockle clams on a beach near his North Whidbey home to use for crab bait.

The Town of Coupeville awarded a construction bid for the first phase of the Madrona Way Project and officials anticipate construction will start next week. The bid was awarded to C. Johnson Construction, Inc. out of Oak Harbor. A pre-construction meeting is scheduled for Thursday. Mayor Nancy Conard said contractors will meet with various entities from roads, utilities and town staff to map out details and what to expect. “We hope construction will start July 16 or soon after,” she said. Once construction begins, a detour will be put in place and Madrona Way between Broadway to Vine streets will be closed to through traffic. “It’s about six months of disruption,” Conard said. “Local people will still be able to get into their driveways.” A letter will be sent out to area residents explaining the disruption and detour information. Construction could go into November, depending on who gets the bid for phase Two, she said. The town will go out to bid for the second phase on July 16. The project is broken up into four sections. Staff established a system for the project that once C. Johnson Construction has completed the necessary utility requirements in section one, the contractor for Phase Two can come in behind them and begin the road improvements. It will go sequentially, Conard said. Also in an effort to stay within the timeline, the town built into the contract liquidated damages that levy fines if the contractors don’t meet deadlines and bonuses if they do. Six bids were received for the second phase, the utility portion. Of those bids, two were eliminated due to previous safety violations and two others were eliminated do to bid errors. C. Johnson Construction was actually the

Anderson also likes to dig clams for bait. “I like clams because it is their natural food,” Hudson said. “They eat more clams than anything else.” Hudson said he can only remember one time in 2014 when he didn’t catch his daily limit of five Dungeness crabs, which must be a minimum 61/4 inches wide or get tossed back. The crabs also must be male and in hardshell condition. To differentiate the sexes, look at the crab’s underside, Hudson said. Females have a wider abdomen than males. Fishers also are allowed to keep six Red Rock crabs per day. They must be a minimum of 5 inches wide and can be either sex. One of the differences between a Dungeness crab and Red Rock is the Dungeness crab has white-tipped claws and a brownish shell. Red Rock crabs have black-tipped claws and a reddish shell. Hudson said there are a variety of ways to catch crab and not all require a boat. Crab can be caught by tossing a ringnet, by hand or
On Saturday and Sunday, July 18-19, the Coupeville Boat Launch will be bustling with activity. Town Council approved an event permit for a small regatta as a new kick off to Race Week. Around 50 small dinghies are expected to participate and will launch from the town boat launch. Prior to approving the permit, town council members ensured the event would not close the boat launch to the public, especially crabbers. Event participants will launch and then take vehicles and trailers to a nearby location as to not congest the area. Town staff will post signs at the launch prior to and during that weekend to notify recreational crabbers that there might be some delay during that weekend.
with a snare. He’s even seen fishers have success with hand lines and dip nets, particularly near eel grass. Cornet Bay is a popular place to fish for crab for those not using a boat, Hudson said. Fishers may toss out casting traps, star traps and ringnets from a pier or even try a crude hand-line method. Hudson suggests tying a grisly piece of meat to a line and tossing it from a pier and having a net ready to plunge into the water because most crabs will let go of the bait once they get near the surface and finally realize what’s going on. Crabbers must follow a litany of rules to legally harvest crabs. Washington Sports Fishing Rules pamphlets can be hard to come by these days at local stores that sell fishing gear, so a good place to look is on the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife’s website at www.wdfw.wa.gov/ fishing/shellfish/crab Crabbing is allowed every day of the week except Tuesdays and Wednesdays through Sept. 7.

This Dungeness crab is a keeper because it’s male and also because it is wider than the required 6.25 inches needed for it to be legal as shown by this inexpensive crab measuring tool. Sound must have a shellfish license, crab endorsement and catch-record card, which combined cost about $25 for crabbers ages 16 to 69 with those 70 and older receiving a significant discount. Ace Hardware in Oak Harbor sold more than 100 licenses each day last week leading up to the July 2 opener. Walmart, among other stores, also sells sport fishing licenses. Only two units of gear may be used by each crabber. Units of gear include pots, star traps and ringnets. Those who set traps on
the water must attach a red-and-white buoy to their leaded lines and write their full name and address on the buoy. All waters around Whidbey are now open to crabbing. Wear rubber boots to keep your feet dry and bring a crab measurer as well as gloves to avoid any irritation and stinging from the slime of jellyfish that tends to stick to lines, said Oak Harbor’s Connie Ross, who’s crabbed around Whidbey most of her life. Don’t just use a dollar bill
to measure crab, she said. Legal crabs are a little larger than that. Also, don’t forget the bait. “Turkey legs are the best bait,” Ross said. “I get the best results from turkey.” Some try chicken legs, fish heads and soft cat food. Others such as Doug Rollin of Oak Harbor are more creative. “I’ll tell you what,” Rollin said. “I did catch crabs with a pair of old trousers with bacon grease smeared on it.”
MADRONA: Project starts July 16 From page 1 second highest bid, but the cost of the proposal came in just at the engineer’s estimate. The entire project is antici-
pated to cost $2 million. The town is tying up loose ends to secure USDA funding of the $1.12 million utility portion of the project. The road portion of the
boats, music, food, family fun www.WOODENBOAT.org
project is anticipated to cost roughly $732,000. More than $630,000 of that is already covered by a grant from the state Department of Transportation and $65,000 from the Transportation Improvement Board. The town will be responsible for about $33,000 of the road phase of the project.

oes this sound familiar? “Why won’t you answer my texts or calls??? I just like to know where you are and who you’re with because I worry about you.” This may sound like a concerned and worried partner but it could also be classified as stalking. Where is the line between talking & stalking? Know your line. Being able to identify these red flags in not only your own relationship but in others’ too can help prevent domestic violence. Domestic violence is often only associated with physical abuse, and while that can be a significant part in some relationships, there are also many other more subtle ways that people are being manipulated and controlled in abusive relationships. These obsessive and manipulative behaviors are far more common and widespread than anyone realizes, and, are far less talked about. Often, it is the indirect and insidious behaviors that are many times brushed under the rug or written off and yet, those are the very tools that many abusers use to form a tight cocoon around their victims. Those subtle behaviors, known as red flags, can be difficult to pinpoint to the average person. Understanding the line between talking and stalking is essential, because many people can’t see unhealthy behaviors in their own relationship and need a friend to help them realize the warning signs. CADA is here to help people learn those warning signs. Citizens Against Domestic & Sexual Abuse, CADA, is Island County’s domestic violence and sexual assault agency. We provide free, confidential assistance for anyone affected by these issues. Services include a 24/7 crisis line, crisis intervention, advocacy-based counseling, legal advocacy, community education & prevention, medical advocacy, emergency shelter, support groups and parenting classes. If you or someone you know is a victim of domestic or sexual violence, CADA is here to help. CADA’s 24/7 Crisis Line: 360-675-2232 or tollfree 1-800-215-5669.

It’s time for a new location for club Editor, Decades ago, Coupeville opened up a state of the art firehouse. Today, the Boys and Girls Club occupies the building, providing a safe landing spot for the youth of Coupeville. As a parent and a teacher, the thought of kids finding safety in a firehouse is comforting, even nostalgic. Anyone who has been there in the late afternoon knows just how busy and active the club is, with its energetic kids and enthusiastic staff. A dedicated group of adults, people who live in and grew up in our community, work tirelessly to give Coupeville kids engaging, enjoyable, and safe activities. Critical before school and after school care, themed summer camps, and our local basketball league are a few of the basics that the Boys and Girls Club provide. My daughter, and many of my friends’ and colleague’s children, benefit from this inexpensive but quality service, a service that does much to bring kids together. The sad reality, however, is that that old firehouse is cramped and noisy and loud. It also houses the local food bank! It’s time to find a newer, bigger, quieter place for the Boys and Girls Club to do their good work. Our kids deserve that much.

Remove the blinders, put campus in Clinton Editor, Why is Washington State University looking at Greenbank Farm, where the community gathers, eats, shops, walks the trails and marvels at the brilliance of cooperation it took to make the farm a community asset for all to enjoy? Why, when we have an ideal potential for a college campus at the Clinton Market shopping plaza? Classrooms, lecture halls — it’s all going for a very good price. Clinton is the gateway to the island. We all put on blinders as we go through because it has become shabby, run down and has too many empty store fronts. Imagine a college campus here, right up the hill, and a free bus ride from the ferry. Imagine people of all ages coming here to study. Imagine that and you imagine more coffee shops and stores and places to hang out. You imagine baskets of flowers hanging from all the businesses along the highway. Perhaps you imagine restaurants that feature local food that can feed the imagination of the Farm to Table Everett Campus

students. You imagine offices for farm tours and lectures about food and farming attended by people from both sides of the water. You imagine tourists marveling at how beautiful it is right off the ferry the way we do in Friday Harbor. C’mon folks, give Clinton a chance. And what a great chance it would be to have a college campus funded by the state Legislature. Turn your eyes south, and lay off Greenbank Farm.

It may be a ‘right,’ but it’s dangerous Editor, This July 4 was marked by the most extreme fire danger in many years, and still, people chose to buy and explode personal fireworks because it is their “right.” The rationale was that they would be careful and responsible, and thanks to most who were. The problem is that fire is not careful and responsible and, in conditions like we are currently experiencing, mere embers can explode into flames many hours after they’ve landed.
The home where our son took his first steps in the mountains east of San Diego is nothing but a concrete pad to this day as the result of a tragic brushfire. People who have not actually lost a home filled with memories may not fully comprehend the lasting magnitude of this experience. While other communities simply banned fireworks, we here were left to our devices. Neighbors who chose not to shoot fireworks in the interest of fire safety were right next to neighbors who did in the interest of tradition and entertainment. Plus, people came over from locales that had banned fireworks to buy and shoot them here, adding to the potential burden of our own dedicated firefighters. Maybe the organizations that sell fireworks could take more responsibility for hosting safety meetings, or circulating safety information, particularly when public officials are practically begging people not to use fireworks due to high fire danger. Or maybe elected officials could put public safety rather than political expedience first when potential fire conditions reach recordbreaking levels. At any rate, the issue demands real leadership from somebody, so no one here is ever left with the smoldering vestige of a home as the result of our celebration of independence.

Central Whidbey 9/10 softball qualifies for state By Jim Waller Staff Reporter
For the second year in a row, the Central Whidbey 9/10 all-star softball team qualified for the state Little League tournament at the expense of its rivals from North Whidbey. Central Whidbey, coached by Mimi Johnson, overcame a loss in the first round to North Whidbey to win the District 11 crown in Mount Vernon and earn a trip to Vancouver for the state playoffs. The first state game is 1 p.m. Saturday, July 11, at the Glenwood Little League complex. North Whidbey 11 Central Whidbey 10 The district tournament got off to a shaky start for Central Whidbey when it blew a fourrun lead in the final inning to lose 11-10 to North Whidbey Tuesday, June 30. Central Whidbey, which also includes several players from South Whidbey, sprinted to a 3-0 lead in the top of the first inning. Kaia Richmond singled, Mckaela Meffert was hit by a pitch and Isabelle Wells walked, then all three circled the bases and scored on a

North Whidbey regained the lead, 5-4, with a run in the bottom of the fourth inning. Central Whidbey went up 7-5 with a three-run fifth. Walks to Abby Mulholland, Meffert, Sterba and Gwen Gustafson and singles by Isabelle Wells and Chloe Larue fueled the rally. North Whidbey responded with a run in the bottom of the fifth. Central Whidbey built a 10-6 cushion with three runs in the top of the sixth with the help of walks to Stella Johnson and Meffert and singles by Richmond and Sterba. North Whidbey then produced its miracle comeback, scoring all five runs without recording an out. Richmond topped Central Whidbey with two singles; Meffert scored four runs after walking three times and being hit by a pitch. Pitcher Sterba struck out 12.

Healthy Living Holistic medicine treats overall health Barbara Simons, PA-C - The Water’s Edge
Community Mental Health is good for the community!
Holistic medicine is a term used to describe treatment therapies that treat the patient as a whole person versus just treating a symptom. Emphasis is placed on preventing illness by optimizing health.
Author - Sunrise Community Mental Health
Oftentimes in Western and, especially, cooperative medicine, there are tendencies to treat symptoms and send a patient out the door with a prescription.
Sunrise Community Mental Health is pleased to now be serving Island County with two new locations in Coupeville and Oak Harbor.
Holistic medicine, however, looks at an individual’s overall physical, mental, spiritual and emotional well being before a treatment is determined. Holistic medicine practitioners look at a body’s systems as being out of balance when ill, and they place great importance on nutrition as well as avoidance of certain substances known to pollute the body as well as mind.
Sunrise Community Mental Health provides a variety of treatment and support programs, helping people with mental illness remain in their community. It’s important to Sunrise that their clients to progress toward wellness and true recovery. Because each person’s needs are unique and each person’s vision of recovery is unique, Sunrise works with the individuals to build a customized plan that is equally unique.
Holistic medicine can address chronic illnesses and acute and minor illnesses, and try to bring all areas of our patient’s life and the energies flowing through the body back into balance. A properly balanced holistic treatment plan aims to take into consideration all aspects of human health and includes noninvasive and non-pharmaceutical healing methods, including herbal medicine, naturopathic medicine, nutritional therapies, stress reduction and psychotherapy, massage and chiropractic approach. Office visits can run 60 minutes for first visits and from 30-60 minutes for all other visits. This time is to get to know a patient and allow for setting up individualized treatment plans.
Sunrise has nearly 40 years of experience providing supports for persons with mental health diagnoses. They will also connect people with services and benefits. Their qualified professionals and extensive network of relationships with other community supports helps their clients find solutions that last.
