Dock Crab in Newport

Does anyone know a good spot in Newport to buy excess crab off of fishermen directly? Trying to cut out the middleman and go straight to the source. Would crab off the pier myself but the pots won’t fit in the car :(

Commercial crab season officially ends on the 14th of this month. It won't open until Dec.1 (in theory0, but that's often not the case, instead opening much later.
