Dana hooping
So last night I headed out with a small 4lb bag of macks. Finding macs during previous hooping sessions was easy. I actually would come home with more bait that I started with. A good problem. Last night the macs were gone. The moon was bright by 8 pm, almost as if someone was flashing a light behind me. I kept looking back expecting to see a light on me, but it was the moon. I remembered I did not like hooping with a big moon. The bugs were crawling, typical dana shorts. And this season, many many eels. nasty critters. The water appeared clear, high tide at 10 pm, little wind but a storm moving in. I could see the cloud cover build. With only 1 bug on board I called it a session. NO skunk but damn close. My wife said... "only 1 lobster? ..... what are you gonna do with that?" I hope your spots are producing. |

Dana Pt
I too went out on the Friday opener at Dana Pt. and only caught shorts.
Called it quits after getting harassed non-stop by a big sea lion. South swell kept me off my spots down the coast that night. |

I haven't had much luck in dana point lately either. I'm going to dive the jetty as soon as this weather passes.
