Emergency: Where Can John Buy Crabs?

Emergency!  Where can John find crabs -- other than Franks Seafood in Jessup, which is apparently sold out for Sunday?

John left a comment on this week's Franks post, and he needs a place to buy a half bushel of hardshells for Sunday.

  5. Thanks for all the ideas! VK - I think you mean Captain Dick's, and I'm now planning on going there is Frank's is out. I got crabs from Captain Dick's years ago, so I had forgotten about them. Thanks again!

  7. Crab update - I ended up traveling to Arbutus to get crabs from Capt. Dick's, and it was well worth the drive. The crabs were well spiced and full of meat. Everyone thought they blew Frank's crabs away and were amongst the best they've had in years. I'll be heading back there soon.
