Those legs are the funnest to pick if you have patience. Not much meat but it's the sweetest!

I'm just glad that something's surviving in the Chesapeake....heard stripers are suffering.


I prefer Gray Poupon ;)

Mine can't go that slow for a trot line so I just throw a bunch of fishing pole lines out with a chicken neck through a hook with a weight just like I was bottom fishing... about 20 seconds later, I see the line "walking" and I reel it in and net the crab, recast about 10 feet from the boat, move to the next pole with a walking line. :lol: Works for me :dance:

Definately take the time to pick the legs!!! The yellow mush always gets scooped out onto the newspaper/table. It's not edible to me lol.

Some folks just waste the legs because they can't be bothered with them and are too lazy I guess :shrug: Never understood why. Also, I think its a big waste personally. It'll take that person twice as many crabs to get full than someone that eats the legs with the rest of the crab like a normal person does. Basically, if you eat 6 crabs and are too lazy to pick the legs, you end up wasting 36 legs that have meat in them :shrug: The legs ARE part of the crab. :shrug: If I have kids I'll tell them to eat it all or dont' eat any of it - no sense in them eating 10 crabs each and tossing 60 crab legs away each (120 legs now mind you) meanwhile you've only eaten 2 because you are choosing not to waste the crab. Besides crabs cost WAY too much now adays for throwing hafl of it away :shrug: JMO :biggrin:

mmkay...I'm confused. Do you divide the number of legs by the number of crabs..or do you cross multiply the big legs by the small legs and subtract mustard??

I'm counting everything but the big claws, I think that leaves two or three per side and a paddle on each side or something. :lol:
