Does anyone know if it's legal to catch horseshoe crabs in NYS? There was a guy this afternoon around 2:30 at the Jones Beach CG Station spit collecting them in a large orange basket. I asked what he was doing and he said working. Please reply to me privately so as not to start a discussion thread. It's not entirely off topic since horseshoe crab eggs are a primary food source for Red Knots, at least in Delaware Thanks Dave --
