Crisp the fennel: Place the shaved fennel in a bowl of ice water for 10 minutes, then drain well and pat dry. Make the dressing: In a large bowl, whisk lemon juice, orange juice, vinegar, Dijon, honey, Old Bay (if using), salt, and pepper. Slowly whisk in olive oil until emulsified. Assemble: Add fennel, celery, cucumber, radishes, red onion, orange segments, dill, and parsley to the bowl. Toss gently with about two-thirds of the dressing. Finish: Taste and adjust salt, pepper, and dressing as needed. Fold in half the nuts. Transfer to a platter, sprinkle with remaining nuts and a few chopped fennel fronds. Chill 10 minutes if time allows and serve alongside the crab boil.
