Bruce Burton, of Washington, D.C., emerges from Broad Creek smiling because he has just caught not one, not two, but three blue crabs in his net while crabbing with his cousins, Ken Jackson, of Atlanta, and Robert Jackson, of Canton, Ohio, on Monday at Hilton Head's Broad Creek Boat Landing. The trio, on a family vacation to the island, had decided to try their luck -- which turned out to be pretty good -- catching crabs in nets using chicken meat as a lure. "We've got nothing to do, and all day to do it," said Robert Jackson.
