You have to buy a saltwater but not a basic fishing unless you are on a WMA

Seems pretty clear that you need Salt + Basic if you are on a WMA or Refuge...
Also seems pretty clear that you do NOT need Basic to crab...
The vague part is do you need a saltwater fishing license to crab? HINT: You must have Basic to purchase a saltwater license... haha
