Off the main tie a 10-12' string with a piece of leg quarter on it you may want to attach an old nut to help weigh it down.
Walk the main line, when you get to one of your bait lines pull it in slow, have the net in the water and scoop the crabs.
I may make a trip to grand isle in a few weeks to get some. When the giving good you can load the truck and there is no limit that I know of. I dont keep more than my family can eat so once I fill an ice chest I stop.
One thing not mentioned is female crab with the eggs showing...... throw them back you can NOT posses them.

back on this, is there a good area I can use this method in the BL area and use my boat to set and access the lines. I really do not know where to fish for crabs. I found a site called bluecrab.info but didn't really have much luck getting INFO as to BL
