11/5/06 I CAN'T CATCH FISH !
 

But I sure can catch lobsters! Fished Sat. morning LJShores, Bait hard to come by at pier but managed five big macs. I knew bait was to big for the small fish around these days so trolled krocs for bonitas, lots of those caught today. Back on shore around 11:00. Such a beautiful day sunday, that I had to get on the water. Hit the beach @ 5:30pm with the hoops and fresh caught bait. Pulled up seven awesome bugs within two hours :D Right place at the right time, because I thought it was going to be a dead nite! Not one other hooper on the water tonite, Peace out.

I'm not into bugging, but I thought the limit was 5...???

no. the limit for cal is 7 lobsters per person a day. 5 is the the number of hoops you can have with you and use on your kayak.

:lol: my buddy keeps goin out with his skiff and comin back with 5 saying he got his limit :lol: I'm not gonna tell him...

Maybee you should get into "bugging"... you might actually catch something once in awhile. :lol:


let's try it out sometime this week when i come down you homo.

I just got back from hoopin' tonight for the first time and I pulled up 6 shorts and two gnarly moray eels in an hour. It's as easy as everybody says and I'm sure if I would've stayed longer I could have found some legals, but nobody told me that I would have to untangle a pissed off toothy eel six inches from my nuts...


TN (Nets?),

That’s why you should never swing a net into the kayak without first looking at what’s inside.” hoop netting for lobsters include rays, some armed with whippy stingers, small sharks capable of twisting to bite an unwelcome hand on their tails, California scorpion fish studded with painfully venomous spikes, and octopus with endless grasping arms.
