Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this illegal?

From LDWF recreational crabbing regs

quote:

No person shall possess adult female crabs in the berry stage (i.e., carrying the eggs or young attached to the abdomen). All crabs in the berry stage taken by any means shall be returned immediately to the waters.



From LDWF commercial crabbing regs

quote:

No person shall possess or sell adult female crabs in the berry stage (i.e., carrying the eggs or young attached to the abdomen). All crabs in the berry stage taken by any means shall be returned immediately to the waters. However, a legally licensed commercial crab fisherman may have in his work box an incidental take of crabs in the berry stage equal to not more than 2 percent of the total number of crabs in his possession.

It all depends. It's illega if the crabs have the pon-pon on the outside but I'm 99% sure they're referring to the Orange eggs INSIDE the crab.

As long as they aren't busting out into the external egg pack you are ok. Think the sign just means the crabs are full of eggs on the inside. Best eating part of the crab IMO. Cracker, dip, crab eggs is about as good as it gets.
