    What’s sad is blue crabs used to be about that size every time you caught one. (Talking about the ‘80’s). I’m not sure if it’s overfishing or what, but I remember a few years where suddenly every crab caught was way too small. And ever since then, it’s like they haven’t been as plentiful or as large as they were in the 80’s. I haven’t gone crabbing in 20 years though, so I have no idea about it anymore. Probably has replenished again. Maybe it’s just a natural cycle. It’s just that for about 10/15years where I was crabbing at, all the blue crabs caught were small. It was so bad, we just stopped crabbing. Had to throw most back. We’d catch all day and have about 3 keepers which isn’t enough for a family dinner, so we’d throw those back too.

    • @TheOldCoupleOutdoors
      @TheOldCoupleOutdoors  2 роки тому +3

      We've found that crabs of a particular size hang out together, we'll find a spot where most of the crabs are small and go to deeper water and most are large but there are still plenty of crabs out there for a nice dinner. When I was a kid in the 50's you could catch a bushel with handlines or box traps in a day.

    Just happened upon this video. I live now in the Arkansas Ozarks, but when I was a child my dad and an uncle used to take me crabbing with them in the shallows of Tampa bay. The water was calm and crystal clear, and only waist-deep on the adults, so they would merely scoop the clearly visible crabs off the sea floor with a crabnet, and plop them into a #1 galvanized washtub floating alongside. Then we would have a crab boil on the bank. This lovely couple has brought back for me some sweet memories. Subscribing.

      I hear those crabbing days are over in most of Tampa Bay area but in the old or upper Tampa Bay area they still have crabs. Plan on moving back there myself. The benefits of living in Florida is they have the best tax deductible rates for seniors and there is still good crabbing. Check out a guys channel called jimmies and sooch.

I catch crab in the UK but all ours are pure sea crabs, the most common is the brown crab. But it’s really interesting too find these crabs in fresh water, or is it blackish water?

      Galveston oh galveston. Lived on that spit of sand for 2o + years. Been on mainland for about just as long. So sorry you only caught small crabs. But its been overfishing for so long. I've begged for a moratorium of 3 years just to let them rebuild naturally. Best we got is 5 inches size point to point for retention. But I think it's to little to late. Beach crabs are better than bay crabs to. I think . But I hope you'll visit us again in April may and June when crabbing is at its best and you can catch a meal of good ones.

      @@matty6848 , I completely understand. We have the same issue here with goods from Europe.
      I'm happy to hear that you can get the true version, I just hate it that you have to pay an exhorbitant price.
      When I was stationed in Germany, the locals there preferred true American Marlboro cigarettes over the ones they could get.
      The interesting thing was our Marlboro packs have twenty cigarettes. The ones that Germans could buy had either 19 or 21 cigarettes, but never twenty.
      I'd help out my German friends by gifting them a carton here or there. The older Germans especially liked the real ones.

    Just watched with my brother, again. Even he had flashbacks of days passed when we had crab that big. Overfishing has kept them from being as good as this in the bays here. But he mentioned a spot very much like this where their only bothered occasionally we know of. Though its been years it's still hidden among the civilization grown around it. He asked what month this was I said may. He said we use to raid our hole in April. Then he said 6 months were raiding the hole. Lol. Them crabs done stirred us up.

    We found really big crabs in a backwater pond in Chatham, Cape Cod many years ago (1970's). the crabs were so large that they would grab both sides of the net and yank it. These were serious critters.

    Joyce, don't forget the recipe of pan frying them in olive oil and garlic and other spices you like. After they are almost cooked, add some oregano and fry a little more to release the flavor of it, you won't be sorry. 🦀🦀🦀
