Grew up and spent half my life on the Eastern Shore, transplanted to west central Alabama. This video just took me home...if only for 15 minutes. Nothing rings more true than that last rule..."If you're invited to a crab feast, it's because we love you". Thanks for showing the world just a taste of what many of us from MD consider to just be a normal day in the life.
Captain CJ I believe this is one of the all-time great videos you have ever made thanks for bringing me along and from South Carolina I will continue to watch my boat is down and I don't look forward to getting back into crabbing until the spring of 2023 you guys stay safe out there on the water and in the future I'm going to be looking for some new crab pots don't mind making the drive to Maryland if you know someone selling out and there's a really good deal on them
Maine lobsterman here sounds like you're on hard times I am so sorry I feel for you where all the same and I think we stand together pretty strongly 👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
Awesome video y’all. I love the “rules”. Wife and I are originally from “Bawdamore” lol. We steam our own crabs in Eastern North Carolina and have been for 38 years. You guys are awesome.
Just found this channel and already love it. I grew up on Deal Island and started working on a crab boat when I was 12. That's what I wanted to do for a living but then life changes and found myself moving to Texas. We used a trotline instead of pots but I still remember baiting it with bull lip at the end of every day so we were ready for the next. This video sure does take me back!!!! Its been several years since I seen the Bay Bridge as well. I still go crabbing down on the gulf and ordered JO #2 online for the steam but they don't taste the same. Thank you for bringing this lifestyle to you tube!!! PS. If you wanted to ship some Chincoteague Island R-sters to Texas this fall I wouldn't say no!
Yeah man!! Nothing is better than having my seafood going from the water to the boat and straight into my lips!! I know the crew enjoyed the Heck outta that. 🦀🦀🦀🦀🤩
by far this is your best video as a commercial fisherman myself I also let my crew take catch home for dinner no charge have got to treat the crew good you're doing a good job 👍👍👍👌🇺🇸🇺🇸
I'll have to watch several more times but I think this is your best video ever especially your list of ten things I think my daughter's around 4 years old looked for heavy crabs see if you can top on Friday
right here new promotional video for Chesapeake Bay crab👍👍👍👌🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 so as a Maine lobsterman I prefer to eat my lobster on an island standing in water I've ruined my neighbors from eating lobster in a restaurant 👍👍👍🍻
I live on the border of Louisiana and Texas on the coast, i love going crabbing, but we dont use that OLE BAY or J.O down here, nothing compares to some good ol cajun seasoning.

Hey, get back to crabbing before the season is over. You'll have all winter to make plans for next year.
I will come work your boat for just crabs no pay. I love good crabs always have always will. Just steamed up 2 dozen yesterday I buy from a guy down the road . Always live and I steam them that way I know what they are cooked with. Thanks for the crabs man

Thanks. Branko Hodzic Photography does a spectacular job
Capt JC that’s a great way to treat your crew after a hard days work ……
Nicely done Capt CJ ! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Branko Hodzic Photography did an amazing job
You know there's folks out there who would pay big bucks to say they ate crabs off Miss Paula's culling table, just saying. Great video guys!
Not quite fine dining but they were really good.

Glad to bring you back, even for just a moment.

Fresh is always the best.

Omg. I’d give anything to join them for a feast like that!
It was definitely a Treat.
@@CrabdadCJ Who is the crew member who was topless, wearing the bathing suit?, I thought he did a great job of handling the crabs
Chris.
@@CrabdadCJ He did a great job, I would love to meet him and congratulate him for his hard work
The wife and I loved the video. Just a little jealous
I love how the crabs were cooked ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I'll have to watch several more times but I think this is your best video ever especially your list of ten things I think my daughter's around 4 years old looked for heavy crabs see if you can top on Friday
Branko Hodzic Photography out did himself.
Thank you George. I don’t think the Friday videos are in the same league. 😆 I spent a long time on this one.
I watch u tube on TV so the best show on TV is Barney Miller second is miss Paula
God speed fl 🦀
right here new promotional video for Chesapeake Bay crab👍👍👍👌🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
so as a Maine lobsterman I prefer to eat my lobster on an island standing in water I've ruined my neighbors from eating lobster in a restaurant 👍👍👍🍻
Haha, that’s awesome. I remember you mentioning that before. A great meal satisfies so differently outside in nature.
We always show a couple 10 of the beer and with it too
Any Marylanders last meal. Cheers guys
True statement
I live on the border of Louisiana and Texas on the coast, i love going crabbing, but we dont use that OLE BAY or J.O down here, nothing compares to some good ol cajun seasoning.
Any particular brand you recommend?
How do you keep the water hot in the pot dipping fixture on board miss paula?
Diesel burner
Can get down with the Utz chips and dip
Sounds like a Delco PA accent. Is the Captain from Folsom?
I've gotten that before. Born and Raised south of Balmer. I did go to college in Lancaster.
Captain CJ., with greater editing skills you've gained, I think you are looking for a tv role like April Wilkerson!
Editing is all Branko Hodzic Photography. I'll check her out.

Historic Chesapeake Bay! Maryland has The Best Blue Crabs!
I said "Hell yea" to every rule...but #11...at my house the host never gets to eat!!!
Yeah that's usually true.
Y’all eatin the lights ?
THATS HOW ITS DONE!
I’ve learned Rule #7 the hard way more times than I’d like… 😂
The way I used to find my little pinholes in my slippers I would put it up by the sunlight watching shin in
this could be a addition to make money .... charge for a few guest to ride on boat and enjoy a feast
Good Idea.
YOU TAKE CARE OF YOUR CREW THEY TAKE CARE OF YOU 💯✅✅✅🫵🫵🫵🫵🫵🫵🫵🫵🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Sorry but western Washington is the crab capitol. One dungee is like 4 blue crab
Who doesn't eat the claws? That's the best part
To each his own
Forgot rule #11. When sitting at the crab table, keep your hands in your area
Well, it just does not get any better than that
Well said
Wow....your guys don't know how to cook them or set a table to eat them....shame on them!
I will come work your boat for just crabs no pay. I love good crabs always have always will. Just steamed up 2 dozen yesterday I buy from a guy down the road . Always live and I steam them that way I know what they are cooked with. Thanks for the crabs man
Best captain ever,,, that's all I can say about that 👍🙏❤️😎🛥️🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀
Your too nice Miss Ruth.
