Nice Crab
Ever seen a crab like this? I got caught up on someone's old line fishing on bottom. This little guy was tangled in that line.

It's a calico box crab.
A beautiful species!

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
