Yep, I'd say start at Sand Harbor and head South. Less access to the coast as you head that way so you'll have less people. If it's warm out and you reach Secret Cove, you'll see plenty of wrinkled old balls.  It's a nude beach.  My buddy and I were kayaking by there and a boat was on anchor - I was looking the other way, but my buddy said 'hey whats that?!'.  I look up and a naked old dude is bent over at the waist on the boat - ass facing us.  Gross.  Haha      

I don't have a ton of experience, but when we boiled crab, we didn't care for it as much.  A few weeks ago we got some dungies and a couple red rocks at Bodega.  We steamed the fresh crab for around 12 minutes.  I had added some crab boil and salt to the water.  I was much happier with it steamed and thought it tasted like we had gone to somewhere like Red Lobster.  We cooked the red rock in the same pot as the dungeness and I personally thought they tasted pretty similar.  I just thought it was more of a pain for getting the meat out of anything else besides the large front claws.

When you say store bought - are you talking about the frozen whole dungeness from somewhere like costco?

Pretty sweet vid    Sure makes one want to do some spearfishing.   

I was looking at the various ways of cleaning live crabs and ran across this guys video.  Ridiculously quick and easy.  We just do this same thing using the front corner of the yak as soon as we get back to the beach and throw em on ice.

Just signed up.  This will be my first event.  Looking forward to meeting more of you guys out there!   

I'm getting ready to do an install on my revo 11 and ran across this guys very detailed install of his Elite 4 HDI.  http://dizzybigfish.co.uk/hobie-revolution-kayak-fishfinder-mount/  Maybe it'll give you some ideas on your 13.  I'm going to do the same as him but I'll be moving it up just slightly so I can still throw my leg over the side easily.  I thought his battery bag was a great idea too.  Hope it helps.

Fifty years ago, Jim Whittaker became the first American to summit Mt. Everest.  This is a short 3 minute video that I find motivating and keep going back to on days when I feel like just laying around on the couch.  Helps me to get up and do something outdoors.  Figured some of you might enjoy too.   

Sure give's me even more motivation to want to get into spearfishing.
