Looking good! Boy could I go for one or two of those right now! Been a long time since I've had crab.
 
Oh man Richie, those crabs look delicious
You know by now my weakness for Softshells.
I'd go pirate, boarding and burning boats for Softshell booty.

You had my full attention, right up to the tartar sauce... Tartar with crab?! Man that's like ketchup on hotdogs... Pure evil.

LOL, I jest.
Keep it coming Richie, just hold the tartar on mine.
Like!
 
Ah had another good day crabbing. Just going to have to find your hot spot. :rolleyes: :D

That sammie looks tasty. Soft shell crab, is that like a blue crab?
 
Never had any softshell crab, but it sure looks good your way.
I'll take Chile's share of the Tartar Sauce. I was looking for a tartar sauce recipe a while back.
I'm going to add yours to my cook book, Richie.
Thanks!

As far as I know we have to put soft shell crabs back. At least in Puget Sound they do.
I guess it's their way of making you have to work for your crab meat. LOL
Stupid blue states, way over regulated.

All this crab is making me envious! Come Friday, I’ll be in VA with a dozen fresh steamers with old bay and beer.

Still never tried soft shell, but I’d still sneak a bite of that sandwich when you weren’t looking.

Joe you should be able to find them in almost any restaurant down their.I use to be able to dig Steamers now all the areas are closed due to pollution. Thanks for the Like I appreciate it

Geez 'm crow, Richie leave some crab for us slobs that don't live live near the coastline. That sandwich looks out of this world. Can you Fed-Ex one to me overnight?

Point for sure.
