Just FYI guys.  I wasn't aware of the closure until I saw a post on a fishing forum. Just passing it along.

Is there a place to properly dispose of an inflatable boat?  I bought an Intex Mariner 4 about 2 years ago and it's leaking air.  I have to registered it with the DMV because I put a trolling motor on it.  How to I properly dispose and un-register this thing?

Does the crab snare on a rod considered a rod or a trap?  I know you can't use more than 1 rod for rock fish.  Since the method of take for rock fish is with a hook, and a snare is not a hook, but there's a rod component to it.

I have a friend who have a long and narrow sit-in kayak and wants to go crabbing with me.  With such narrow kayak, he does not carry any traps of his own or bucket to hold the catch.  He will help with sorting crabs and place it onto the bucket on my yak.  In this situation, is it legal to have a 2 person limit since all the crabs are on my yak?  We have been crabbing for rock crabs and kept a one person limit and divide among us, as I'm not sure if we can keep a 2 person limits.

I saw Die Hard catching eels to target lingcods.  I thought to myself, why not make an eel fly pattern.  Here's a link of it in action.

I've made some jigs and flies during the COVID-19 lockdown.  I got about 3/4 bucket full of them.

My kids love to eat pan fried sand dabs.  So, this coming Sunday, I'll try to catch some.  How deep are they?  I hope I don't have to go beyond the red buoy.  I never intentionally try to catch them before, so any help is appreciated.
