Not sure how they do it out in Cali but on the Chesapeake all you need is a piece of string and a chicken neck.

There are a couple snare styles out there. One is a ring with heavy mono loops on it. Cast it out and wait. Try to reel it in and if it is heavy you got one or two. Second is a clam type snare. Cast the contraption out and it opens on the bottom. You can actually feel the crab going in to the snare. When you get a bite reel it in. I saw a tv show about the last one, looks pretty cool. Yes you need a heavy casting pole with heavy line, 50lb or better. Good luck. Used to crab Bodega bay in my youth. We used hoop nets though.

I'm sorry, I've never tried that. Only way I caught crabs was with a trap with some discounted chicken. This was when I was a teenager chucking crab traps in Toms River, NJ.
I love to hear how you did with the snares if you can recall. |
