1. catching lobsters by hand out of season could result in a broken antena or leg. This might cause a female to molt and lose all of her eggs.
2. snares are not allowed at all in CA. You can only use your hands during season.
I suggest you pick up a copy of the CA DFG regulations. You can visit the website as well.
