Those are the longest points I have ever seen.  Must be a Chester River crab.
Oh, de crab, he taste so fine.
Yuh catch 'um wid a neck an' a line.
Bile de water 'til 'e good 'n hot.
Den eat de crab strait from 'de pot.

Oh, de beer, he taste so chilly.
Drinks it 'til I gets too silly.
Washin' down 'de crab an' butter.
If I doesn't fall down, I'll 'ave anudder.

who takes them at 4 1/2?  what the legal size by you.. Even though 4 1/2 is the legal size, they are useless to me.. I don't keep anything under 5 1/2.  If they are running really good, everything under 6" goes back.

except for this year.  I fill many bushels of 6" and over crabs.  Any smaller just aint worth the work cleaning and eating them.  This year though, since pickings are scarce, I will keep 5" and larger.  When the crabbing is great, then 6" and over.  I am out everyday, so I put in the time and the work and get what I need in most cases.
