What does this mean for us?

I'll tell you what it means....Drop yer trap at your local Safewy store, with any luck the price will be so low you won't be able to go get them yourself !
I found that you only need about ten feet of line to hurl your trap over the counter, and there is usually not much of a wait till you can pull it back in. Good luck and be carefull in the parking lot, it can get rough out there.
Just havin fun.

Perhaps a collapse of crab populations for a few years. It seems to me crabbers were singing the blues a few years back when they had a poor season on the heels of a bumper crop season. I might be wrong (it's happened a time or two!) but enjoy the crab you have, it may be a while before we have another excellent season like we had last year, I hope I'm fulla BS on that prediction.
