I have found several crabs this year that have an off color gray tinged meat. the meat is firm, the taste is off but consistant. I ve found one or two of these in a few bushels, picked up some females this past weekend and several had this condition. Its not the cooking. anyone else notice. all these crabs came from the WSR area below bb.
