Post entry photos for the 2013 Largest Blue Crab Contest Here

Ron · April 03, 2013, 08:01:35 AM

The 2013 contest is on. Remember that you must summit a CLEAR picture with a ruler to verify the size of the crab. Unclear photos will not be accepted. In case of two crabs being the same size, the crab caught and posted earliest is the winner.

Good luck to all!

I know this one wont be in the money, but I wanted to get the first eight incher of the year posted. He was a hair above eight. Four of the other eleven that I caught were over seven. For April, I can't complain.

Removing it

Way to got Wag. At least I was in the lead for more than a month!

crabbywaters · June 05, 2013, 09:31:36 PM

Beautiful crab except the boiled part

. My biggest so far is only a little over 6 inches. I'm hoping to change that on Sunday.

lreops · June 05, 2013, 09:47:36 PM

First off, I ain't trying to stir anything up, but are already cooked crabs allowed? What I mean is that I, or anyone, could go out and buy some super jumbos and if there is a real mumbo amongst them, just take a photo with a ruler and enter it. Just curious.

I do believe the rules say must be alive. Nice crabs, both of them

Correct. They must be alive.

Sorry, Wag. Nice crabs, but not valid entries.

If nothing else, Wag should get "Honorable Mentions" for at least showing everyone that there is at least ONE camera and ONE ruler present in LA.

Ron

rdbeard · June 06, 2013, 09:13:38 AM

How do we really know he's from La? He does have a camera and a messuring device, this really don't add up.

CraigFos · June 06, 2013, 09:16:41 AM

Selective memory. The 2012 winner was a Louisiana crab.

wag · June 06, 2013, 02:01:25 PM

You're all correct ---- rule #3 ----> must be alive / freshly caught

My bad ------ I'll remove it

Ron · June 06, 2013, 02:02:26 PM

It's all good Wag. You'll catch another big one or five this year.

Mr. Breeze · July 02, 2013, 03:21:06 AM
