Heck my mom really liked them ol softcrabs. The paper shelled soft crabs I'd use for fish bait. Didn't get to do that hardly half e'nuff!! Heck I used to get a quarter a piece for them good ol soft crabs..it was a shame to eat 'em when they was worth that much!! We was poor...but we wasn't poor white trash! Everybody was poor where I grew up!!

OK. You got my interest piqued. What are soft crabs? Are you talikng about craw dads? There used to be two kinds of those, soft and hard. They were good eating once you cleaned them. Boiled or fried, it didn't make any difference.
