    A sponge crab is a female blue crab that is carrying a cluster of orange eggs under her apron, and is almost ready to spawn. So you should put them back for future reference. Other than that you all did good.

      @@Baudejim I don't know how to explain it clearly, but crabs with yellow membranes don't get pregnant.

      From March 17 through June 15, you can only keep bright orange sponge crabs (1-5 above). All brown to black sponge crabs must be returned to the water (6-15 above).
      From June 16 through March 16, you can keep any sponge crabs [ 4VAC20-370-20 ].
      Why? Bright orange crabs are less likely to survive if thrown back. The darker crabs will release their eggs sooner than the lighter crabs (the color darkens as the eggs develop), so they're hardier. Many people choose to return all sponge crabs to the water as a conservation measure.

      The sponges are indeed eggs and you would be heavily fined if caught keeping them. If you still don't believe, Google it!!! You guys are messing up the future crab population. As a person from Maryland, who has crabbed most of my life, please do not keep these pregnant females. Your lucky game warden didn't catch you.
