Anyone got the crabs?

[mooseknuckles]

hello,
I'm a newbie lobstererer and I was wondering what the deal is with the "Big-Ass Crabs" I've been cruising past. Can we catch and eat those things? Is there a separate license we need? Do they itch & burn? Hey........Crab cakes for everyone!!!!!

OK cool, So they're musically talented critters - nice!
but can we cook and eat them? and are we allowed to do so with a lobster license?
