I'm considering taking my hoop down to Newport Pier and getting it wet. Haven't been there since feb. Last time I was ther ei have squid and Mack in my hoop while I was having a blast catching Thornback Rays on squid.
I'm still a very inexperienced hooper. Any tips for a learner? Such as how long to wait, how much bait to use, and what would be a good keeper size, besides the minimum 4 inches.
Also, Spider Crab, what are the rules on these? When I went I landed a 5lb+ Crab, but didn't have a clue about it, so I sent him back.
Any advice appreciated!
