3 things-1st:Lawrence genuinely cares about the experience. He’s knowledgeable and just a really nice guy. 2nd: This is a really well done experience from start to finish; nothing I would change. 3rd: Our 14 yr old wanted to do this. I was along for the ride, but we all had fun! I would do another of his tours if back in town and would actually recommend it to others.
One of the best guides we have had hands down.

This was an amazing experience from start to finish! We caught plenty of crabs, and the best part was cooking and enjoying them right after. It was fun, unique, and something I’ll definitely remember. Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a hands-on local experience!
Lawrence was an great guide and our whole family truly had an amazing time. We enjoyed a wonderful view while learning how to catch crab. Lawrence not only provided all the needed supplies but also clear simple instructions on how it's done. If thats not enough he also cooked us a delicious lunch with the crabs we caught, you can't get any fresher than that!
Awesome experience. Well thought out from beginning to end. Super fun whether you are a beginner or different experienced level! Lawrence was super cool.
What a cool experience! We had never been crabbing, and Lawrence made it a fun and educational experience! We had an incredible Louisiana style crab boil afterwards. I would recommend this experience to friends and family!
Amazing experience! Lawrence did a fantastic job; he was patient and helpful sharing his expertise in casting, crabs/crabbing, and fishing in general. We caught a TON of crabs thanks to his guidance and then had a wonderful meal at the end. All round must recommend to locals and travelers alike. One of the best experiences we’ve had in the Bay!
Thank you, Lawrence & the DURASNARE team!
It was very fun and begginer friendly and the people were very nice and patient. They also had very high knowledge and there was a full crab boil sit down meal.
We had an amazing time crabbing with Lawrence. He is an excellent guide and made sure we learned the ins and outs of everything. We caught a lot of crabs and had a great meal afterwards and were lucky to catch some beautiful weather. I highly recommend this trip if you're into fishing or crabbing!

New to crabbing. Learned so much about all aspect of crab fish to casting techniques, bait, equipment and when best times to crab fish. Had an excellent experience and was catching crabs as I was learning. I would recommend this instructor and company to anyone wanting to go crabbing. Looking forward to taking his class on surf fishing for crabs and classes on other types of fish. As a new crab fisherman. I learned a lot and fishing going forward will be a lot more fun. I know I have the right techniques in place to catch more crabs.
Thank you Lawerence. It was a great morning on the pier. You also have the best views of the Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco, Alcatraz Island and the SF Bay on top of the fishing.
We took a crabbing class today and had an amazing experience. Lawrence was awesome!! He is very knowledgeable, approachable, and clearly passionate about what he does. He explained everything clearly, answered all our questions, and made the class both educational and fun. We had such a great time and would absolutely recommend this class to anyone interested in crabbing.
My friend and I had such a wonderful time today! Such positive, fun vibes, but the best part is, Lawrence, owner and guide, was completely prepared, super knowledgeable, helpful and fun to be around. I’d recommend this trip to anyone who loves being around crabs, because you will catch a ton. Learn to cook and eat them too with the beautiful background of SF and the Golden Gate.

It was incredible to see the progression in your casting and technique from the beginning of the trip to the end. You both picked things up so quickly and were looking like seasoned pros by the time we wrapped up! Watching that transformation is one of the most rewarding parts of guiding these trips. We’re so glad you had a great time on the water with us and hope to see you back out on the pier soon!
One of the best experiences we've ever had. My son was fascinated. We learned a lot and caught several crabs. A HUGE ONE!!
Lawrence is the best! And he has all the equipment!!
Do not miss this experience.
