Guests will learn the art of crab snaring beneath the iconic Golden Gate Bridge! We’ll cover everything from A–Z, including gear setup, baiting, casting techniques, reading the water, and how to properly retrieve a crab snare.
You’ll then get hands-on experience casting from the pier and trying to catch crab yourself. Along the way, we’ll teach you how to identify different crab species, properly measure your catch, safely handle crab, and understand local regulations and responsible crabbing practices.
All necessary crabbing equipment is provided, and no prior fishing or crabbing experience is required. Our goal is for you to leave with the knowledge and confidence to go crab snaring on your own after the experience.
Meet at Torpedo Wharf Fishing Pier near the Warming Hut. Look for our black and white flag banner that reads “DURASNARE – Guided Crabbing & Fishing Tours.” Your guide will be waiting near the pier with the equipment.
