This invasive fish entered our local waters approximately 10 years ago and have already made the most wanted list for most Fishery Departments. With a rapid growth rate and scary spawning abilities our goal is to promote this invaders extinction through introducing it to dinner plates. Our goal is to eat the last one! THIS FISH CANNOT BE SOLD COMMERCIALLY IN VIRGINIA!!

The Atlantic blue crab is a member of the Portunidae swimming crab family. Its Latin name, Callinectes sapidus, translates to "savory, beautiful swimmer". Blue crabs are named for the bright blue coloring on their legs and the blue tinges to their mostly brown shells. While the legs of males are solely blue, the legs of females have orange tips. Blue crab meat is white, tender and flaky with a rich, sweet and buttery flavor. The claw meat is a bit nutty and has a natural brown tint.
Maryland harvested and picked.
