Excellent Documentary.. Growing up on Martha’s Vineyard, we’d go out in a row boat and scoop up the skittering Blue Crabs in about three feet of water with pole nets and fill up a 5 gallon bucket and take it home for a Crab Boil. Our parents always appreciated that and would do the boiling. Someone would inevitably get a good bite while handling them, holding up.a hand with a crab hanging off it., while in great pain. Those waters have since become polluted due to powerboats and posted as such:”No Shellfishing.”
As the former owner of two crabbing boats I used for crabbing in the Albemarle Sound, North Carolina, I approve of this video. The only thing missing was "peeler pots." which have a smaller mesh to trap the smaller female peelers. Whenever I would pull up a hard crab pot, if it had a Jimmy (mature male) toting a female, I would use that male as bait in the peeler pot bair well to attract females looking for a male to tote them. Since the male would be surrounded by females he couldn't get to, he would put out more and more pheromones to attract more peelers. You could easily get 25 to 50 peelers in one peeler pot if you put it in the right place in the water and you had a strong toter. If you pull up a peeler pot with few peelers, Jimmy goes into the bushel basket and gets replaced.
now imagine aliens make a documentary about humans like this ! humans tatiest time is right after they give a birth babies are yummy so we freeze the new born babies and eat them later
Best video I’ve seen yet! Thank u!
excellent documentary, I learnt plenty of information about this particular crab, thanks
I've seen hundreds if not thousands of documentaries on various wild life and this has to be one of the best.
Old ones are always the best as they explain every intimate details
Wow. Very interesting! Thank you
One of the best videos. Thank you.
