“It’s been a slow start because our spring has been colder than last spring,” said Eskridge. “Last spring we were already catching quite a few crabs by now.” Virginia’s Crab Season officially began March 17, but the calendar only means so much to mother nature.

There is no such thing as a Maryland crab.
The crabs caught in Maryland were born and raised in Virginia.

This is how it's going to go. After I kick your A$$ i'm going to run you through the wood chipper and put you in containers in the freezer to use in my crab pots! The really sad part? You let an old man kick your A$$!!!
