Crabbing questions

[beccrossee]

My uncle is visiting this week from Florida. He specifically wants to go crabbing a few times. He doesn't want to buy a license, not interested in fishing. The only decent spot I know for crabs is Rockafeller. However, you need a license to be in Rockafeller. Can we just pull over and crab on the side of 82 and toss out lines? Also we've been getting a lot of rain lately, will this affect salinity enough to push crabs around. Are there any boat launches,public areas worth a try between cypremort point and the mermentau? Any info would be helpful. Thanks in advance.
