Is there anywhere to buy dungeness crab either fresh or frozen relatively reasonable? I want to take a bunch home but charter doesnt do crab out of Uvluelet… is there even any crab around there cuz there sure ain’t in the little bay.
I spose a guy could buy in Nainaimo or something? Cook em up and freeze for the trip.
Processor wants like $23-$24 a pound in UQ…. Seems a little steep
Post is about buying but please PM me if you know a good secret place to catch some?

Most I would pay is 18 per lb for "fresh" caught crab. Grown male dungeness will be about 2lbs. So its gonna be an expensive meal. Tons of work/stress and hassle to bring it home. Especially when you can go to T&t which is selling them for 11 dollars per lb with the average one being 2.5lbs.
There used to a truck with a large water tank in the box full of crab that they sold in the campgrounds i remember them coming a couple times a week to the qualicum area campgrounds. Prices were reasonable. Good luck.
