other than stone crabs (claws), are there any other crabs that are caught locally and eaten on AC ?

are there land crabs on AC ?

Not really. There are land crabs on most of the cayes

Is there a season for stone crabs? How are they traditionally prepared. How do they compared to the "blue crabs" of Louisiana and Maryland?

with stone crabs you just eat the claws, crab is caught and a claw is broken off and the crab is returned to the sea to regrow the claw.

the whole crab is eaten with blue crab.

i find blue crab better tasting than stone crab claw, although a lot more work to get the meat out.

Lots of crabs on FOX's temptation island...
