The rule states that the daily limit of Dungeness crabs and red rock crabs are aggregated (combined). This means that you can keep a maximum of 4 crabs a day (crabs can be Dungeness or red rock), not 4 crabs per species for a total of 8 crabs. This is perhaps the trickiest rule there is for fishing regulations.
