    Before I forget to tell you....1 thing that I really enjoy about your channel is that is so peaceful....I watch UA-cam all the time and there's guys that think that they have to yell into the camera all the time to keep themselves hyped up for there video and it drives me crazy....so, Thank you for keeping it peaceful and just speaking to us like the adults we are.

    That small Pelicase reminded me of the one I used to keep all my hash(not legal in the Uk,still !) in years ago.We went trout fishing in The Lake District,Northern England.We walked about three miles after a successful fish (dinner was caught) to the nearest pub,got absolutely drunk,and were worried about getting back to our campsite in the dark and in a state.A lovely motherly woman who was a designated driver for her group offered the three of us a lift back to the campsite,before returning to her group of friends in the pub.When I got back to my tent,and keen for a spliff,I realised that my whole box of years of odds and ends,various cigarette papers,a small pipe…etc had fell out of my pocket in the back seat of her car,she was a very nice lady,but she scored big time that night,I really should have got a white pelicase instead of a black one !…Happy New Year Kidz,keep up the good work…from Manchester,England.

    Blue crabs always remind me of North Carolina and Old Bay, they cook them in massive steamers with shovels full of Old Bay. When you get them home you lay out the newspaper on the floor crack open a beer turn on some football and go to town. One of the best meals on the planet. they were so cheap, like a dozen for $20, they even sold the sides. Thanks a lot for the video!

    You probably won’t see this but if you do this might help you in the future. When the crabs are all backed up to structure like those were that normally means they are getting ready to bust out of their shells. Those look to me like they had already shed earlier that night, seeing how clean they were. You found a treasure trove for sure, some big beautiful crabs. If you look at the moon phase you can probably go back next month at around the same time and find them again. Maybe get there earlier in the night and catch them while they are still soft!

He's Portuguese and his mom shipped it to him from California every few months in huge batches. It was amazing by itself but they put it in stews, soups, rice and veggies, one potters with potatoes and a ton of chunky veggies ect. To them it was an ingredient too. I'd love to get some!
