I used to go crabbing at a family place down of the Severn River many years ago. We'd tie some kite string to the plank or a post on the peer and then tie a piece of raw chicken on the other end and wait. When you see the lines start to wiggle (or just give them a little tug) slowly pull the chicken up and then scoop the crab up with a net.

Good fun.

I'm DEFINITELY going to be catching myself some crab, especially softshells. Maryland boys grow up with a chemical dependancy on softshell crab. I accept no other presentation than fried, on untoasted white bread with a remoulade (use home made mayo ONLY, no substitutes accepted).

I made Singapore-style "chili crab" with Chesapeake blues the other day, it was positively epic. The hot Siracha with the tender, sweet crabmeat with steaming hot rice and lots of lots of Soju. Usually you do it with Dungeness, but it worked well with blues.

Dam it! im getting all hungry now
