**I’m told these crab hawks are illegal to use in CA. So don’t use them if you’re from CA!**
2018 Crab Opener at Baker Beach with a new style snare called a crab hawk!
It turned out to work pretty well actually! I bought another one. I bet it works even better at the piers. That crab is not gonna come off!

I was basically using Squid as bait and skewered it on the metal clip on the crab hawk. Stays in place and wont move. Chicken drumsticks would stay on just as well I bet.
Let me know if you want to see more of the crab hawk! maybe a video at the pier?
