The 500 Point Question!

I was thinking Maryland Blue Crab as I was typing.  One of the most delectable morsels every consumed by mankind. 

Well I was gonna say 5 but I think I am too late!

WHO cares, just ship me some... LOL

Rich - I still can't get past the picture, you are lucky this is a public post:-)

Rich, I guess Google has made thes types of questions a no brainer. Go ahead....ask me anything.

By the way since it's only 5 what do the other folks get to eat?

With 27 comments already made, I knew I wouldn't win points, but I was curious. Only five per day? What am I supposed to do for lunch and dinner with only five per day??? I bet I know where you're gonna be tomorrow~

Happy 4th and Happy Crabbing!

Rich let me see five is just not enough, they should at least let you catch five per person on the boat.  I could eat five of them by myself in no time :) :)

Crap, After I spent all that time reading about Dungeness crabs, seems others already knew the answer. Oh well, it is some interesting new laws. Now if you were to be a commercial fisherman and need a class B license, that is a whole different number. Guess, your not a commercial fisherman. Go get your crabs and I  will try again when you ask a question that I don't have to spend so much time reading about it. All is good though, this information might come in handy if the markets don't get  better,lol.

Well on second thought, Rich, why dont you go ahead and go join deadliest catch?

I had no idea until reading the comments but, I just stopped to share that I was JUST folding my son's t-shirts from college and found a new one and got a kick out of it:  "Crab Naked" is what it reads!!  Thought you'd get a laugh out of that--just the visual is pretty scary, huh?!!

OH, and, hey that's worth 500 isn't it?!!! jk

Hi Rich.  Great pic!  We are actually going crabbing for the first time this weekend in Newport, Oregon.  We're really looking forward to it.  Happy 4th!

It would almost be humorous if I said 5 at this point eh Rich??  lol~  Keep the points, send me some fresh cooked crab.  We'll have to have some in the "Big City" this month!  :-)

I think it depends on where you are catching them.  If it is in Puget Sound it is 5 males of minimum size, but if you are in the the Columbia River it is 12 and 6 in the Pacific Ocean.

Rich,

My wife says I am crabby too. We should start a club for crabs.

Rich, We don't have crabs in Alabama...well....not that kind anyway, ROTFL...

Sorry, just wanted HAD to say that.

Rich,

One of my favorite shows is the Deadliest Catch...haven't missed one episode in 4 seasons. I was tempted to tell my wife I was going to go to Alaska and try to get a job as a greenhorn and see if I was in good enough shape to make it through one season...maybe I'll take King Crab...but those Opies are tough because you have to fish them in very dangerous weather...I ain't choppin no ice!  You have to respect those guys and the job they do...at least they get a big paycheck working only part of the year.

Hello Rich,  sorry I missed the opp for the bonus points. 

How far is Pleasant Harbor from Camp Thunderbird?  I was an ASM in 1999 when the Troop camped there in August.  I couldn't believe the water was warm enough for me to do the Mile Swim in, and the Polar Bear Swim!  One of our best camping experiences, to be sure.

Oh, man, I missed the chance at 500 points!  I am a HUGE  Deadliest Catch ADDICT too!!  Come on, at ship me some crabbies!!!  YUMMY!
