Do you get them right at the dock old school? If so, how much per pound?

First they separate them by size. Small, medium, large, JUMBO. Then they price out by size.

He buys live by the bushel and knows the guy so gets great deals.

But he only gets smalls because all the bigger crabs are farther up the bay. :0003

get them off the boat as he is docking

we get various sizes depending on the time of year..

the overall size would be considered med.

we sometimes get 3/4 of the bushel large and the rest med.

at 60.00 to 70.00 a bushel we never complain ..40-50 less than we would pay elsewhere.

Tony out of of Pungo has looked out for us over the last 5 years.

Looks awesome OldSchool. I might have to settle for some Florida blue crabs. They have all you can eat on Tuesday from 3-7 for $25. Sure they're not as good as the Chesapeake blues.

we made feet for the basket w/nuts,washers bolts..

just high enuff for the lid to still cover and not boil any of the crabs in water..

we all know boiling crabs is a HUGE MISTAKE.
