I’m guessing you didn’t read the link? Just a guess thoughSo what is the cause of the decline? Any legit theories being researched?

Gettin old huh? ?I did but I missed that part.
Over harvest on the Russian side doesn’t help either.'' the causes of the population crash are probably stresses from the warmer water and increased threats from predators. ".....
Prices have blown up for awhile. I haven’t bought crab legs in a couple years. I do like them thoughEverything they said in the article and it's been overfished for years. I'm glad me and the roomie went ahead and did this a couple of weeks ago:

Probably will be a while before we are able to do that again. We do like them so I may keep my eyes open for one more batch if the prices don't blow up with this news.
I can so nuff eat my weight in some good ole blue crabs and my wife will attest to that...Ain`t no shortage of Kinchafoonee Creek crawfish nor Forgotten Coast blue crabs.
We`ll get by.
Gettin old huh? ?
You guys ever had royal reds? They are some kind of good!
Overfished was my first thought. I'm with Nic. Those blue crabs are some of the BEST!Some marine scientists say there will be little or no seafood to harvest by 2050 at the present rate our Oceans are being depleted by over fishing if something doesn't change. Man doesn't live for tomorrow most of the salt water fish we harvest here in NC have been declared overfished for many years. I figure overfishing will continue until there is very little or nothing left to fish for. I am not surprised at all with the Alaska crab industry going flop.
You gotta eat at least one lobster before you leave this earth. You will not regret it. I promise. I sure don't eat as many as I would like, but when I do, I'm pretty close to heaven.I’ve never had Lobster! Not even a taste! Not because I don’t want to! It’s just so expensive! Like way higher than the the highest point on a hawgs back!
I’ll stick with crawfish and blue crabs! When I feel like doing all’at work for them little nibbles of meat!
