Thats exactly my first thought, there is a lot of good meat in those claws, especially that one with the Popeye claw.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.
You are never to old to learn something stupid.

Thought I would give an update - we tried another day later in the trip, similar location, similar depth, and ended up with 2 in 2 pots.  Nothing worth keeping, but if I return and have a boat (we could only swim and set) I would scout out some better locations and give it another whirl.
