Episode 1- Delaware Crabs

- The Delmarva peninsula is made up of the eastern shore of Maryland, the state of Delaware, and a sliver of Virginia. It is surrounded by the Chesapeake Bay, the Delaware Bay, and the Atlantic ocean. This is where I grew up, and every summer meant 2 things to me. Schools out and crab feasts. Catching crabs is a delmarva pastime, which is then followed by inviting family and friends over to enjoy some freshly steamed crabs. Now that we no longer live there, we make sure to take at least one trip back each summer and visit with family and friends and of course spend some time on the water crabbing and fishing and enjoying the spoils of our time on the water.

Episode 1, awesome stuff guys
Hey man, good video. Seems like it was a pretty good season for crabs this year
Thank you. I only get up there to crab once or twice a year now, but it certainly turned into a good day that day!
Thanks!
Nice catch!!! I have a question, I'm really not trolling, when you catch a bushel a crabs why keep any females? I understand it's perfectly legal to keep females but why? A female crab can lay 750,000 to 8,000,000 eggs doesn't it just make sense to not harvest them? Most people get triggered when I ask this question, it's a tough conversation to have via a comment section.
@@NYGOLD no trigger here. I guess what gets lost in translation in the video is that It started off pretty slow. So we kept females in the beginning, but once we picked I steam females got thrown back. And then certainly the. Sponges all got thrown back. Delaware unlike Maryland does allow the harvesting of female crabs, but we traditionally only keep them if it’s a slow day. They aren’t bad, but I prefer the taste of males anyway. So I really prefer to throw them back. A few by us sport fisherman to top off a bushel is not the issue…it’s the commercial crabbing with hundreds and thousands of females being harvested. I lived in Atlanta for 6 years and every now and then I’d look at getting g some blue crabs. Every time I went to a store it was nothing but females. I passed.
