Those crabs would get me excited too IF after they wuz cooked, I had somebody there pickin' em out for me!! Once in a while I'll get the fresh lump crabmeat from the seafood counter at the big HEB near my house and just eat that sucker with a little Tobasco and other various toppings... absolutely love the stuff, but never got the hang of pickin' em out!

Yall should have seen all the crabs in the Chandeleur surf the other day! Monster crabs everywhere you looked! Most looked like females and some with eggs but I bet you could still fill a 55 gallon drum with them.
I'm heading south in the morning and imagine I'll go catch a few. Pain to pick but man are they good!

That is because you really don't 'pick them out'. You either cut or break them apart. If you are literally picking meat out of the shell it'll take forever. The folks who do it commercially use a paring knife.
The size of the crabs makes a big difference too. Once you get the hang of it you can knock out a couple doz crabs in no time.
