Keep in mind that it's likely the crab trap season will be delayed in that area until Nov 12.

I'm assuming I'm going to need one of these stamps since I'll be using my two square caged traps.  Where can one purchase these stamps?  Walmart, Big 5, anywhere that sells fishing licenses?

If you haven't read in other threads, there's also new gear requirements for traps.

I went onto fish and games website. You can download and print it if you need it before they send it to you.

That’s how I get all of my fishing and hunting licenses now. It’s pretty easy.
