Dungees vs. Rocks

[1morebuck]

So crabbing is pretty good and we are hauling in red rocks and dungeness with easy limits. I kept a limit of red rocks and my buddy gave me some crap for it. I personally like the red rocks, what do you like?

I think the rock crab taste the best,and the dungi have more meat

[superdown]

I like both. I don't care which one is caught it would interesting to see if anyone could tell the difference blind folded.

The "Rock" is a little bit sweeter with most of the meat in the claws The dungenest are just a great all around eating crab

   Agree completely. When I was stationed on Whidbey Island we did a lot of crabbing. I LOVED the Redrock. Of course, the Dungeness were great too and certainly gave ya more meat per crab. But nothing beats the sweet Redrock IMO.

Same here... red rock is sweeter

Agreed, I've always kept both species. I also agree that the Red Rocks are sweeter.

I agree, rock crab have more meat in the claws though

I don't keep the rocks unless they're B&C size.  Not much meat, and the super hard shells are a pain to clean.  You can eat most of a dungy without using crackers.
