How often do you see some pier fishermen fishing and having a couple hoopnets out for lobster or even crab in the summer.
Answer; ALOT
Seems like when ever you go to some pier you'll see someone with a hoopnet tied up and fishing at the same time. Guys have even posted up reports of fishing and hooping at the same time.
I guess you could use one rod and one hoopnet at the same time ?
Check this out.
Q. How many rods can I actively use while fishing from a public pier?
A. You may use no more than two rods and lines, two hand lines, or two nets, traps or other appliances used to take crabs. Species-specific gear restrictions (such as for rockfish, lingcod and salmon) do apply when fishing from a pier.
Q. If I have two rods and lines in the water on a public pier, can I also put a baited hoop net in the water?
A. No, you may use no more than two rods and lines, two hand lines, or two nets, traps or other appliances used to take crabs.
Q. Can I have more than two rods with me while I'm on a public pier?
A. Yes, as long as you are actively using no more than two rods at any one time.
