I've never crabbed Tomales, and I don't target rock crab anymore, but while you are waiting for a more knowledgeable reply, I say go for it. Regarding the meat, it seemed like the red rock crabs I caught last winter were light on meat, so I don't think ones you catch now are going to be much worse than that.

Rock crabs are about as close to a sure thing as you can get around here, so as long as you are dropping traps in reasonable spots you should catch them. If Tomales disappoints, the reefs at Half Moon Bay have plenty. There's at least one boat that fishes them commercially in HMB, and they have traps out right now.

Good luck!
