Crab Harvest Off To a Late Start This Season

It's a slower-than-normal start to Maryland's crab season.

"That's Mother Nature for you," said 'Captain' Trey Bernhardt, owner of Captain Trey's, Cockeysville. "Crabs don't move or trap when it's below 50 degrees. Once it gets above 50 degrees, they start moving around and feeding."

April 1 was the start of crab season in Maryland.

Bernhardt said he's still getting crab in from warmer climates.

    Global warming cools everything down too much!

    Even in the summer most crabs come from the southern states. The Bay just doesn't produce enough crabs to support demand.
