It will be my first attempt crabbing and I plan doing it from the pier with a crab net.  Was thinking Parcifica pier (tomorrow).  Any advice?

Is there a Pier in HMB?


Thank you!

Is that a better option?  I have 2.  I’ll bring both!  We can use a net and a rod at the same time in the ocean right?

Two devices at a time from the pier in pacifica. The snares are a better option. Furbags are dialed into robbing bait from anything larger. If you do drop a net, watch out for the drift wrapping you around the pilings.
