I'm thinking about trying it this summer. Figured while I'm out there I could drop a few. How many can u carry and what brand works best from a yak. Also how long do u soak them. Total newbie but I know where a ton of crabs are.

Its called a Recreational commercial gear license (RCGL). And it allows you to set out 5 crab pots. http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/mf/recreational-commercial-gear-license

You might also want to try using a hand trap or even a string with several very large hooks and some chicken necks. then use dip net to get them in the yak. Been doing that since I was a boy and now have the grandkids doing it. Loads of fun. No license needed for that.

Be sure you check the size limits and that you can tell the difference between a female and a male crab
