I remember similar days. I love Maine lobster, but Blue claws,...

may be my favorite. My wife was so excited by my slowly pulling a chicken neck on a string up to where she could net feeding crabs in the Aligator River on a dark night, she went right over the stern rail, I kid you not.

Despite going in head first, she got into the dinghy so quickly she hardly got wet. The name Aligator River had that effect.

That was our first trip down the ICW in the winter of 88-89.

We sometimes buy the local live Maine Rock crabs and boil them up. They don't have much meat, just the claws and knuckles, but it's very good. We had lobster last night(again,...), shedders are going for 5 bucks a pound up the street.
