    On the Bay as stated pretty good. If we are getting crabs when down there this where we do get them from

    Over priced but big fat crabs, they weigh them, Victoria's Seafood 443-664-5198 80th St. Now, if you don't care VS has bushels of females cheap, if in stock.

    It might be cheaper since it's the holiday weekend to go all you can eat. Last week I was paying $90 bushel for #1's. This week was $290, no thanks!

    I usually get my crabs from Hemphill's Dock. Its off the island. The location is listed as Bishpville, but its really just north of the Route 90 bridge. A bit of a drive but it's a trip to a different time and pace of living. They buy from the local crabbers and don't expect Jumbo crabs, but the ones we had Friday were full and sweet.

    Thanks everyone. I knew i came to the right place for recommendations. Figured they would be $$$ cause of the holiday. I will probably call a couple days in advance to try and get decent size.

    How much are crabs costing now? Steamed or Live?
    We get our own crabs, use fish heads/parts from fishing so does not cost us anything other than a little time.
    We had 2 dozen from 4 days on 2 pots off the dock last week. I"m seeing bigger ones now too. Half of them were 6".
