Killing 'em Roscoe! Shame about the slashing though. been quite a few down this way as well. 4 legals in the broadwater while we went for a fish for a few hrs yesterday - nice when there's enough crabs around so u don't have to work ur pots!

rosco I have question if you dont mind, if you catch several mud or sand crabs and want to keep the meat for later how do you do this. What i mean is do you cook them then pull them apart clean them and freeze etc.......
