Default Kelp Crab....Ever eat one?

Anyone ever tried to eat a Kelp Crab? I saw alot of them in the Netarts bay while wading around for the Dungees. Just wondering if anyone knows if Kelp crab are even edible or not, let alone worth it?

I think the salty dogs eat them with tuna.It's said too help them return from the (Dark Side).They mix the meat with kelp and make "crab patties".

Sure I'm catching what I need in Dungeness, but often wondered of anyone has made a meal of the kelp crab in the bay. Doesn't look like anyone has stooped that low.
