My son Oliver set out his new crab trap and we stopped to check it, but somebody swiped it. Luckily, we got into some stone crabs on our local jetty and they saved the day. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc371/Scopolamine1/DSC_0065_zps2e836d64.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc371/Scopolamine1/DSC_0086_zpsd802b5c5.jpg) More pics and the story here: http://wp.me/3bCKMHave you eaten Stone Crab before?

Deerwhacker they are wonderful to eat. I'm glad you liked the pictures.
They are kind of the "Dall Sheep" for crabbers.

Stone Crabs have an interesting ability to regenerate one of their claws. As long as both claws are not removed they will regrow the one taken.
There are 2 rules to success:
1. Never tell everything that you know.

Stone crabs are good eating. I would love to get down to Florida in season and give some fresh ones a try. The only ones I've had have been in Vegas a few times.
