blue crabs - do you pick out the meat, or make sauce

Yes it's a lot of work for such little meat. But since you're taking the kids they'll enjoy catching them. I'd make crab cakes out of them with the kids. It's fun catching them on a chicken leg or chicken neck. You're not going to catch 200 at a time up in Connecticut.

No, we won't get 200. That was in about 25 pots. I mean, we averaged 10 keepers per pot, it was something to see, And he hauls his pots every day or two. It was very cool.
