August to November The fattest and most delicious time for swimming crabs is usually from August to November every year, especially September and October. This period is a critical period for swimming crabs to feed and fatten. The swimming crabs have the largest number on the market, and their body width can reach 100 to 130 mm. Especially in October, a large number of male and female swimming crabs will reproduce, so the swimming crab meat at this time is tender, plump and rich in crab roe, and tastes great. In addition, the fatness of swimming crabs is also related to their place of origin and male and female. For example, the autumn crabs in Yangcheng Lake are fatter than crabs in other areas. When choosing swimming crabs, the roe of female crabs is generally richer and tastes better than that of male crabs, so you can choose female crabs with bright colors, plump legs and full of vitality. Please note that although swimming crab is a delicious food, it is cold in nature and should not be eaten in excess to avoid gastrointestinal discomfort
