THE LOBSTER GURU

« on: May 06, 2012, 02:54:35 PM »

Pulled my gear yesterday. Did ok....there is usually a lull about this time of year for a month or so.......There is a lot of bait in the canal. I have seen river herring, sea herring, mac's, pogies and sand eels in the last week. The bigger stripers are here in good numbers already.....Anyhow I got a dozen keepers plus the usual shorts and eggers......Lobster salad for lunch today........

Look at that pile of lobbies!  I love how you say "Did OK" HAA! That's awesome.

I think in my later years, once I retire and have time to travel to the canal weekly, I need to get into this and get myself a recreational permit!

Went to pull Traps,5/27/12, 4 keepers,1 short.Best I've done all Spring.A bunch of good sized Green Crabs in Trap also,I just chuck them back in.Getting a little tougher to pull due to the amount of Fisherman along the banks of the Canal. For the most part everybody that I meet are Good about the short Interuption.they have been hitting some good sized Stripers this early season.
