Crabbing at Marine Lake

Rhyl Marine Lake is the perfect place for the kids to try ‘crabbing’. If you haven’t brought the equipment with you, don’t worry because all you need can be purchased in the railway shop. Our ‘full crab kit’ consists of a line, a bucket, a net and bait. 

The best crab bait we find is bacon. Place the bacon in the bag then dangle it in the water. When you are lucky a crab will hold onto it, then you draw the crab in, catch it in a net and tip into a bucket. The cleverest kids have managed to catch 4 or 5 crabs!

Ask for our free leaflet giving you advice and instructions about crabbing. Crabbing is so popular at Marine Lake that we sell many thousands of items of crabbing equipment every year!
