What is the current value of alaska blue king crab for fisherman?

Question by Jill: What is the current value of alaska blue king crab for fisherman?
Is the value of Red King Crab and Alaska Blue King Crab any different? Just wondering why some fisherman try to catch Blue King Crab when they are so much more elusive and seem not to catch near as many. TIA peeps!!
