LOBSTER REPORT: I hooped 6 lobsters but 5 were small so back in the sea they went, I brought home one legal sized lobster. Good thing I didn't keep any smalls as DFG officer snuck up on my in the middle of the night and checked out everything.

I also caught and released one baby stingray.

I almost got run over by a big boat. The boat traffic was very, very heavy because of opening day. Lobster nets everywhere.

The coolest thing was the phosphorescent algae, which glowed bright green. A sea lion swam under the kayak cashing bait fish and all of the movement left bright green trails everywhere, it was a really cool sight to see.

As to my question about keeping sculpin caught in the net and I asked the DFG officer that and he said no as it was not a legal means of taking the fish.

That's it for now, will post a photo later.
