You flip the over and stick the point of a knife into the middle segment of the belly flap and twist. The crab will die within seconds. I back the crabs for steaming later that day, But!!! crabbers are required to keep the shell for proof of sex and leave the bodies intact with the belly flap attached as poof of sex. All of the gills and guts must be disposed of properly. It is illegal to dump them in Oregon's coastal waters. Good luck on your crabbing adventures. Bill
I see you give your crab trap a twirl and throw it a ways from the dock. Are there more crabs 30 feet out than there is right at the dock? Enjoyed this and your other videos. Thanks
Nice video just subscribed to your channel good luck
