i was out hooping for lobster
i got to the ramp at 3pm ... and my nets were a mess so while i was waiting for my partner to show up i straightened all the nets out and loaded the bait cages (bait was Salmon heads)... he arrived at 4pm and by that time the bait cages were ready to go and i lauched the boat and we were off .... got to the spot in good time (nobody on the water) and dropped the hoops first set we got 2 legals 2nd set we pulled 2 more, 3rd set nothing 4th set nothing. So we moved the nets about 50 yards and thats when they started to Crawl ... on the last set i needed 2 more to acheve limits for both of us and on the 2nd net we got 1 legal, then when we brought in the rest of the nets and when he pulled in the last net there was a 7Lb bug in it so we booked it back to the docks washed the boat and went home so i could cook one of the bugs for dinner
Total
14 bugs (42lbs total)
5 rock crab (6.5 lbs total)
