Off-season crab ... fresh or frozen?

I was just in San Francisco with my girlfriend for the first time, and our host sent us down to Fisherman's Wharf to try some crab and chowder. However, I realize now after doing some reading that we were there during the off-season. Do the restaurants and crab stands in the area simply serve frozen crab after the season ends? I've read the crab yields slow down as soon as January.
