Ok, I'm going to be the 1,500 miles from an ocean guy, what does "Jimmie" mean in East Coast crab speak...?

Crab guts? No wonder you don't like them, you're eating the wrong parts.
Nothing like picking a bushel of crabs and snacking then having crab cakes, crab imperial and crab meat stuffed flounder the next few days.

Hope they dont go down to $35.00 for #1's
Waterman need a pay too. Well 10 bushels at $70 a bushel (at the dock) is the same as 20 bushels at $35 a bushel. I've heard it a thousand times from crabbers themselves. None of them have gotten rich, good years or bad. lol

I know all about blue crabs.My wifes family is from Maryland.Sat down to many a table with a mountain of them blue crabs.Cought her all she wanted for free when I was working in Texas.And I know how to clean and eat them.Now,,like I said,you wrestle spiders to suck their guts out,,and I will stick to my prime rib and Alaska kings.

Alaskan Kings are great, but so are the opilio crabs. Never tried any of the others, but heard they're really good too.
The difference between animals and humans is that animals would never let the dumbest ones lead the pack.
