I think they follow the Maryland blue crab pricing model. When fuel costs were thru the roof it was why the prices went up. Price of fuel went down, and crab prices stayed up.

When it rains it's too much fresh water in the Chesapeake bay prices go up. When it doesn't rain the bay water is too salty and the prices go up. Last spring, the DNR (department of natural resources) said the crab population was higher than ever and they should be plentiful over the summer.

Guess what? Yup, the prices went up. I guess it's like the "temporary tax" to fix _____ you fill in the blanks. That never goes away either.
