Commercial crabbers calculate their daily revenue by multiplying the number of crabs caught by their respective market prices, where larger 'number one' crabs fetch approximately $175 each, smaller 'number two' crabs around $80, and 'peelers' (crabs about to shed) are valued differently, with the total income being the sum of all individual crab values.

How Many Bushels of Crab Did I Catch and How Much Did I Make?
Added:Welcome back everybody. I have 240 of these crab pots baited, been sitting in the water for 3 days. We're going to crab them today and we're going to try to catch these. These are Maryland blue crabs.
Let's see how many we catch. At the end we'll talk about how much money we make.
Let's get it. Oh, and I got to wash crab pots today, too. So, you'll get to see how I do that with my pressure washer.
That's always fun.
Woohoo!
Hey, let's get some crabs today.
Come on, wander.
Got to work. Got to Uh-oh.

Hell yeah!
That's a pretty nice one there.
No, it just fell out.
He was Uh, he was sitting on the side of the boat upside down.
Trying to get off.
Yeah, I want to show you this really cool crab. Look at this thing. Look at that. Look at it. Half of its body, well, at least a quarter of its body is gone.
And it's still alive and well. These things are amazing.
Nature's so cool. Look at that.
How cool is that?

Here, crabby crabby crabby crabby crabby.
Come on.
Come on, crab.
That's just one.
Well, looks like one is the lucky number today.
One. Better than none. Better than none.
Come on, liner.
Catfish in here.
Look at the catfish.
Look at the catfish.
He's for the catfish. All right, we finished our 240 crab pots. Now, let's talk about what we caught today.
Well, I caught four tux. 2 3 4. This one back here is 10 peelers. Those are crabs that are about to shed. So, uh three of these are number ones. They go for $175, and one of them is a number two, which is going to go for about $80. So, you're looking at about a little over $500 for what I made today. So, yeah, I think it's $505 plus $10 from the tailors.
515 if my math is right. Could be wrong.
Anyway.
So, that's what it was. Yeah, I can't I can't add.
I know I I graduated, I swear, but you know, I made 615, not 515. Hey, it's even better though, right? Okay, I'll take the correction. Let's go.
I ain't mad at it.
You know, hey, I'll take $515 being by 10:30. So, thanks for watching.
Subscribe, like the video, and we'll see you next time we go out. Bye.
