Phukk EU try using DARK bait cages/tubes such as “Roach Coach” OR HD commercial wire Cages from LP Fishing Supply. Check out the video that Dave Hansen posted about making your own PVC tubes out of black composite material.

Dude. Really good video amigo. Great conversation starter for sure.

Great video! Straight and to the point

Great video! Thanks for all the info!

Just baught a little boat and plan on harvesting lobster from it in 2023 season, this video was super helpful. Ive only fished with hoop nets from piers so it was way different

Good to hear! Good luck this season.

Thanks for the advice

Great video thank you for the info

Can you do a more detailed video of your set up. What materials you used and the reasoning behind them? Why 40-50 feet line? What depth are you using your gear? What hoop nets seem to work best for you. Are those lights battery operated? On/Off switches for them? Do they have ready to fish lobster kits? Also how do you retrieve your nets? How do you keep track of where your buoys have been placed in the water?

Great Video Rodney. If I drop a hoop net from a boat at 30 feet, but I have 70 ft. of rope, how do you secure the excess rope? How much bait do you insert in a cage, as much as I can jam in there?

Awesome video. New subbie here!

Hey BDOutdoors I went out yesterday to Long Beach and had no luck at all. Do you know any good spots? Also is a boat better then the pier when it comes to hoop netting? Thanks for the info.

Great vid! Where's the spot tho? :)

Where did you get that led flashing light

Do I need Buoy for fishing off pier with net

Can you use a handheld net to catch lobster when free diving? Also, can I set hoop nets while free diving to check the next day?

How much bait do you fill the container up with?

Thanks man can’t wait to see you out there . Have you tried San Clemente pier ? Lots of lobsters . Some decent size ones. No jumbos yet though

tucko11 you said no jumbos yet. I thought you were talking about in the last few days. I called the big five to ask them when the season started, they said September 28. I’ve been on alert ever since. Wish you nothing but luck this season.

Great info! Thanks Rodney!!🤙

Good video, what do you do with excess line. let's say you have 40 ft of line and 30 ft of water, do you just bundle up and let it float, or do you drop it all

can pay to join you for lobster fishing this season ? thank you.

If you're fishing the pier, how do you know when your net has hit the sea floor!?

Amanda Montano - when your line goes slack. You won’t be using a buoy. Just line connected to the ring lines and the other end to you tied off on the pier railing.

Do you need a buoy and your go ID while fishing from pier?

@spartan_8712

You just tie the end of the rope to the pier railing. Don’t think you need a buoy. That’s only when your on a boat or kayak. As for the go ID, I’ll make sure to ask.

Do you need a license if you are 15?

For more information on Lobster regulations : www.wildlife.ca.gov/Conservation/Marine/Invertebrates/Lobster good luck out there

Good info Rodney! While I think the salmon heads work, I have personally had much better luck with freshly cut mackerel it seems to carry more of scent because of it's oily nature. I know the salmon heads work, but mack is the way to go!

Thanks Bo! I totally agree! When I went lobster fishing that night, I did notice when I combined the freshly dead macks AND the salmon heads, the legal lobster were there vs just having salmon heads alone. Thanks for watching Bo!

Frederick Mejia, Fish markets like at the Redondo Beach Pier, etc.

This activity has been ruined thanks to the internet.Good luck out there newbies.What used to be a great fishery is now a shitshow of idiots and aggressive rude people.The fishing sure isn't what it used to be.The good old days are gone.And a big thanks to Promar for making a net that allows any kook with a floating object to lobster fish.
