Crab, lobster, halibut is the cockroach of the ocean.Not saying your wrong because I don't know, but when the Japanese crabs first starting showing up everyone said not to eat them but I see people keeping them and even have given the away to people who asked for them. I finally tried one because sometimes that's all i catch off the docks and you know what they were not bad. Just hard to get to. But having grown up being told not to eat them I still get creeped out about eating so I just give them away.
