Shrimp pie

We used to make blue crab pie in FL after a day of catching blue crabs and drinking beer over in the brackish water. Fun times when you are tossing live crabs into the beer cooler.
Once when we were crabbing off the bridge to Fort Pulaski, a huge blue male got out of the trap and was scrambling around. I was trying to step on him to get to the back flippers and pick him up when this dumb Yankee says "let me show you how to do that". I laughed my azz off watching him running around screaming with that big crab latched onto his finger.

We caught blue crabs with chicken necks tied to a string on a bush (true redneck style). Used a net to scoop them out of the water once we got them to the bank. Buddy's wife got so excited on her first one she used her ball cap because we were not moving fast enough with the net. We would get enough to fill up a gallon bag of meat once they were shelled out.
