Can you fish (with a pole) for sculpin / halibut while lobster hoop netting? I know you can't catch lobster on the pole or fish in the nets but it sure seems like a great way to pass the time while the nets are soaking and I need to be doing something, like not pulling my nets early.

I have seen people doing it and heard some talking about it so I guess it's ok. I looked around on the DFG website and could find the two talked about together. I did ask the DFG that stopped me sat night about sculpin in the net and he said no. Wish I had asked about fishing while netting.

TIA, Chris
