Sam &Joyce, you are the happiest crabby couple! I get so hungry for crabs, but nothing around here compares to fresh catch and cook. Your videos brighten up my day! Thanks for sharing the fun with us. I'm looking forward to the fish you will catch & cook.
@@TheOldCoupleOutdoorswhy do you take the shell off before cooking? I'm from Baltimore,MD and I've never seen anyone steam crabs without the shell. How do you know when their done. I know when you cook them with the shell on you know their done when the shell turns orange. But I'm guessing y'all don't like the mustard and/or in the female the mustard and the crab caviar. Is that why you deshell and clean out their innards and their lungs(here we call those the devils) and you know the thought just came to me I don't know why their called that and I'm 57. And Google exist, I'm going to look that up now. 30 crabs that's a nice little haul. I can eat about a dozen. I just recently learned how to truly eat a crab, by watching TH-cam. I use to pull the appendage off then rip off the shell. Then I would try to get as much meat from each leg as I could. Then tear the torso in half and dig out as much meat as possible. I watched a video and that's not how it's done. First you take off the appendage then the shell. Then you get all the innards out. Then turn the crab over and start peeling the bottom shell off. Then you pull off the legs. When you do it that way you get 90 percent of the meat comes out when you pull off the legs. That's another thing that puzzles me the way you cook them I would imagine they fall apart a little as their cooking.
"it's a keeper-it's a keeper-it's a keeper..." Joyce...someday you're going to get that poor guy pinched by the clam cops with those shorts. Lmao... I still have not tossed out the crab rings. But there's plenty of summer left. Great vid, thanx for posting.
Hi Joyce & Sam, Nice batch of crabs there, it'll make a lovely dinner. What's the matter no crabs in Florida? I'm glad you had 3 different spots to try your luck, If at first you don't succeed try, try again. You just make it look like fun. Glad you enjoyed yourselves again. 😄🌴
That last spot was Aces! 🦀🦀🦀🦀 You two have nothing to worry about because normal is a setting on a dryer 😂 It is amazing how fast the crabs shred the chicken legs, commercial trot liners will use beef lips for bait because it holds up so well. Another great video 👌💯
I;ve enjoyed watching your videos for several months. My wife and I went crabbing this weekend, and used your cork invention on our crab traps. It works great, we just didn't have any keeper crabs. Thanks for the idea! And thanks for the great videos, keep them coming.
@TheOldCoupleOutdoors thanks for watching. Im hoping to get out on the water this week. All depends on the seas. I really want to go grouper fishing, which means offshore this time of year. You guys made out good on you trailer. How awesome the water didn't go any higher. You guys will have your work cut out for you, but it could have been worse. Take care guys. If i was closer I'd come over to give you a hand.
I really enjoy your videos! such a sweet couple. Hopefully one day I'll have a lady who wants to go crabbing and enjoy the catch like y'all do. Meanwhile I just gotta eat the couple dozen I catch every time on my own... :)
Omg you caught so many on the hand traps. I went crabbing in the St. Johns over in Jacksonville and didn't catch anything. I have yet to catch one but your excitement excites me and im going to keep trying
That sea wall spot is our go to spot. The bridges are hit or miss, usually only small crabs until later in the summer. The one with metal rails seems to treat us better but is a popular spot for everyone.
We just like to go to different spots from Pascagoula to Waveland. We mostly enjoy the friendly people we meet crabbing. They're always eager to tell us about a new spot. Thanks for y
They have been running in that area for about two weeks and then about six weeks ago. They were catching some really big ones. Hopefully you are enjoying your day. Try down by the casino on the pier. Right up from that pier you was on is a covert the water runs under. On the beach side just up against the right side I catch some good flounders. If you want to pm me and I will tell you another spot to go
I have to laugh. Ever pull Joyce says, thats a keeper. She definitely loves her crabs. You guy got a few but you definitely had to work for them. Personally im going to all wire traps. Im tired of the cloth. Nice days out there together. Tight lines
Up here in Jersey I went yesterday still early but checking to see if they are around 3 babies only brought 2 traps an hour packing up and 2 nd trap had a 7""about another month and they should be running hopefully up here $50 a dozen I would never buy them at that price love your videos remind me of my wife and I we love crabbing
In Florida there's no size limit and in Mississippi you just need a measuring device (I dropped mine overboard) but a gauge is handier. Thanks for Watching
Guys. PLEASE be careful crabbing near the road. We want you both around for a long, long time. Can crabs live in fresh water? The reason I ask is you were catching crabs in alligator territory so can gators live in salt water? If crabs can live in fresh water I am bringing a big truck down there and load it up with crabs to stock our many lakes up here in East Tennessee. You guys are the best. Keep'em coming!!
Mrs Joyce now now you can’t keep every crab you catch 😂😂😂😂. I was laughing so hard bc you said it’s keeper and you don’t want that $1000 fine do you for that little crab, you could fly to Vegas and have all lobster and crab for that $$$😂😂 and the fixins
I don’t know if anyone has mentioned this yet, but the smaller crabs or #2s are always females and they have the brightly colored claws like fingernail polish. The big males #1s are the beautiful blue claws. I love crabbing. If you pull up a big #1 and he’s on top of a female he is probably protecting her while she loses her shell and the new shell hardens.
Where I'm at, tide plays a small factor, but the biggest factor is how much the water is moving. If the current and waves are fast and high, I catch less. Joyce: He's a keeper! Sam: Joyce, the net is empty.
In Florida there's no size limit but in Mississippi it's 5 inches point to point. It's not hard to make a gauge but I just keep putting it off until I dropped my tape overboard lol. Thanks for Watching
Yes just so they're 5 inches point to point and no eggs showing. There are times when that's mostly all the commercial crabbers can catch. Thanks for Watching
High Tide and always full moon. Love the enjoyment you both get out of crabbing. Thanks for sharing Sam and Joyce. Y’all are just so precious 😘
Thanks Alice
Thanks for the new video. Love how Joyce gets so excited, when pulling in the crabs.
And how she gets so sad when I throw the small ones back lol. Thanks for Watching. Sorry we posted the video so early it was a mistake
that's the best part about catching crabs is pulling them in and seeing what ya got.
@TheOldCoupleOutdoors -excuse me sir is it possible to borrow Joyce for the weekend?she seems like a complete joy to be with
Looks like you found crab heaven. Love watching you catch crabs from shore. Wish I could go more often. 7 INCHERS!!! Nice
They were nice size and meaty crabs. Thanks for Watching
Sam &Joyce, you are the happiest crabby couple! I get so hungry for crabs, but nothing around here compares to fresh catch and cook. Your videos brighten up my day! Thanks for sharing the fun with us. I'm looking forward to the fish you will catch & cook.
We're also looking forward to getting out and catching some fish. Thanks for Watching
Enjoyed watching,I can’t go crabbing but this is the nearest thing
Thanks a lot for Watching
Joyce is the real keeper here! So glad you two are enjoying your adventures together and sharing them with us. Keep up the good work and enjoy!
Thanks a lot and Thanks for Watching
We like yall, good people!
Thank you
Great day crabbing, you guys sure know how to catch crabs. Joyce sure know how to cook them too.
Thanks a lot and Thanks for Watching

Every crab is a keeper to Joyce, love it 😀
You're right, in Florida we're ok but in Mississippi she'll get me in trouble lol.
I laughed when the crab ran right into the bucket😂 that was funny!
I thought that was funny also. Thanks for Watching
Yummy! Another awesome video! Keep up the good videos you guys love watching you guys!

Thanks, they do chew it up that's why we use pigs feet in our stone crab traps so it lasts a week. Thanks for Watching

Thanks, David
We love Brussel sprouts. Nice video. Lots of meat in those crabs
Ed you're right Brussel sprouts are good. We watched you turning over soil last night.
@TheOldCoupleOutdoors thanks for watching. Im hoping to get out on the water this week. All depends on the seas. I really want to go grouper fishing, which means offshore this time of year.

Omg you caught so many on the hand traps. I went crabbing in the St. Johns over in Jacksonville and didn't catch anything. I have yet to catch one but your excitement excites me and im going to keep trying

@@TheOldCoupleOutdoors I haven't but I will try there next
That was a good crabbing day.

If my marriage isn’t like this I don’t ever wanna get married. I love you two another great video
You're right, be patient Thanks a lot for Watching
I am so happy I found your channel. Looks like fun! Can you keep the females in that area? We aren’t allowed to keep the female’s in my area.
We're glad you found our channel. In Florida the only blue crabs you can't keep are females with eggs. Thanks for Watching
I did all my craving on Chesapeake Bay.....chicken necks we used.
Hard to believe but here chicken legs are less expensive than chicken necks. Thanks for Watching
They have been running in that area for about two weeks and then about six weeks ago. They were catching some really big ones. Hopefully you are enjoying your day. Try down by the casino on the pier.

I have to laugh. Ever pull Joyce says, thats a keeper. She definitely loves her crabs.
You guy got a few but you definitely had to work for them.
Personally im going to all wire traps. Im tired of the cloth.
Nice days out there together.
Tight lines
Ed, the ones they sell in Mississippi are heavier netting and hand made that's what most of the crabbers use there. Nice hearing from you Ed
Good day of crabbing. What kind of grill are you cooking on. That is nice.
It's a Coleman butane stove and it works great. Thanks for Watching
We always went crabbing when high tide was coming in. Looks like you had a great day 😊😊
That's right and Thanks for Watching
Hi JOYCE & SAM❤ YOU ALWAYS SURPRISE ME 🙏 BEAUTIFUL COUPLE💗
Thank you very much. Sorry we posted the video early, it was a mistake.

When we lived in Jersey we used to load up in the fall. We sometimes miss the cooler weather but not the COLD lol.Thanks a lot for Watching
Do they not have a qauge available for blue crabs here in California we have to have a gauge with you if your crabbing?
In Florida there's no size limit and in Mississippi you just need a measuring device (I dropped mine overboard) but a gauge is handier. Thanks for Watching
Coolest couple on utube by far.
Thanks for the nice comment
That second place is a great place when they running. It don’t take long to fill a chest
Right, we like to catch a decent amount but not too many because we're just visiting and can't save the ones we can't eat. Thanks for Watching

supper catch of crabs 5-5-24
Thanks and Thanks for Watching our videos
Hello, could you tell me what time of year this was ? We are planning a trip down to bay st louis to do some crabbing.
That was the end of April but we were there 2 weeks ago and we caught crab.
Have you caught any down there around the first of September?
Mrs Joyce now now you can’t keep every crab you catch 😂😂😂😂. I was laughing so hard bc you said it’s keeper and you don’t want that $1000 fine do you for that little crab, you could fly to Vegas and have all lobster and crab for that $$$😂😂 and the fixins
That's what I tell her, I try to keep her from getting locked up lol, but in Florida you can keep any size blue crab. Thanks for Watching
Totally normal!!
I’m coming for dinner! 🦀
We missed you but Thanks for Watching

That's true but most of the places we crab in Mississippi there isn't a lot of water, from 0 to 2 ft at low water. Thanks for Watching
❤🦀
Thanks Denise
I've said it before that's eating good in the neighborhood.
You're right James, Thanks
JOYCE WAS CRYING WHEN THE CRABS WERE 1/4inch SHORT
You're right Richard
Absolutely love your crab vids. Q? Do you have a P.O. Box or mail address if we want to send you some goodies?
Please keep posting! ❤
Glad you enjoy our videos. We've been meaning to get a P.O. box. Thanks again for Watching our videos
I have heard them be called "dead mans fingers"
That's right, they're actually gills but they saw they're not poisonous. Thanks for Watching

That's right lol. Sorry we posted the video so early, it was a mistake
He's a keeper!
He's a keeper!
That ain't no keeper.
We say keepers like some people say bro all the time lol. Thanks for Watching
Crabs move on tide we always caught more on out going as soon as tide stops crab stops
We try to get there on the high tide and crab as it's falling, like you said, but sometimes we can't and we crab anyway. Thanks for Watching
I only keep them when they are 7-8 inches I can’t be bothered eating small ones
You must have a great spot. Thanks for Watching

High tide or close to transitioning
Right and Thanks for Watching
Don't know your size regs,but most places if you don't have a measuring tape? Use a dollar bill
In Florida there's no size limit but in Mississippi it's 5 inches point to point. It's not hard to make a gauge but I just keep putting it off until I dropped my tape overboard lol. Thanks for Watching
You can keep females in Mississippi?
Yes just so they're 5 inches point to point and no eggs showing. There are times when that's mostly all the commercial crabbers can catch. Thanks for Watching
Careful- They can take a finger off...
You're right. Thanks for Watching
Joyce isn't good for the camera, missing the shots pulling the crabs up
She would rather cook. Thanks for Watching
I used to catch huge white shrimp with a cast net,right there
I'll have to try it and see if they're still there. Thanks for Watching
On a full moon when the tide is going out.
That's true Martin, but when we're out of town we try to go on a high tide. Thanks for Watching
Man, if you get 7 inch crabs, you're messing with the wrong women. Lol.
