What's The West Coast Dungeness Season Looking Like?

Thanks @mts , @Rainycatcooks , and thanks all!

I too lose my interest/patience around late February, March.

I have no problem with anything but the body!

It’s a cadaver! It should be fairly predictable. Every dungeness crab has about the same anatomy; the same thorax with the same thin walled cavities, albeit one pattern on the inner part, and a different pattern closer to the legs.

I couldn’t find the picture I wanted, but something like this.

Or this

I’m thinking there’s got to be an ideal approach, perhaps related to being more intentional about separating the legs from the body, so I can get the lump meat out more efficiently.

The part a about 3:18 I AM being patient! :rage:

Okay, I got through most of it.


I think just the right amount of pressure in the right place.

Some claws left. The most immediate gratification. :woman_supervillain:t5:
