Info on Whiteleggers

This is a tough one...when you look up whiteleggers online you get all kinds of conversations about what crabs they are..but nothing concrete. I think that many folks have tagged multiple crabs with this nickname...listing them below. They are apparently very tasty to the Tautog...if you can find any local sources for them.
