quick Q...
So as I am from Socal... we have lobster... not dungenous so we use hoops, not cages/traps.
Back in the day I used to crab off of Pacifica using flat hoops... before they introduced that no night time access rule.

I only have those conical hoops now.
How do they work for dungenous? Can they escape from the conical's? what should my "pull up & check" times be from a yak using those?

I just googled conical lobster trap. They don't look much different from my crab rings. They should be fine. I check my rings about every 15 min give or take. For bait, a lot of guys use chicken, fish carcasses, or mackerel.

I'm gonna try the cove...I've only crabbed off the dock too. I remember O2B dropping a couple of pots in the cove, and paddling up the river a bit with rings.

20'-75' if I remember right. I plan on staying shallow and on the north side of the cove. Sandy bottom there. Plus my ropes are only about 35' long.

For those of you heading up on turkey day, the camp store will be closed so make sure you have all your essentials!
