Has anyone bought any necks (Chicken or Fowl) this year?
What is the price per pound or 40# box you paid?

I dont think the Richardsons' have any control over the necks they get. I believe they no longer raise their own chickens.
Great family, they'll get my dime anytime!

I buy them fresh at chesapeake outdoor supply. I only get 10 pounds at a time, usually like 8 bucks. I don't have a freezer for 40 lbs box.

Beings I crab where the big crabs are they didnt get big and fat eating skinny necks. Ive done well with this for 30+ years and im not changing, have a great year! Thanks, hope you have great year as well. The reason I ask is because I've tried both and haven't noticed a difference. I'm a firm believer in using my bait as bait, not free buffet for crabs. BTW, you won't ever see me at the Wye circus. Tried it once in my 30+ years of crabbing. I'm all about the tranquility of the water. What little is left of it anyway. Maybe I'll see you on the Patapsco. |
