Dive Into Lobster Season: The Excitement of Lobster Fishing!
Bug season is finally here, and I couldn’t be more thrilled! This is a time of year I eagerly anticipate, as lobster fishing offers a unique blend of excitement and relaxation—perfect for winding down after a long day at work while still enjoying your day off the next day. This season, we took our first trip out, and I’m excited to share our experience with you.
A New Secret Weapon: Lobster Logs
This year got even simpler with lobster logs! These hassle-free bait options have revolutionized our approach to lobster fishing. Gone are the days of dealing with old, stinky bait that’s been sitting in the freezer all year. Lobster logs slide easily into your Promar Seal-Proof bait cage, and you’re ready to catch those tasty bugs!
The Thrill of the Catch
For our first outing, we headed to Marina Del Rey, scouting areas that have produced well for us in years past. With a strong current and the high tide creating significant water movement, we were excited to see how the lobster logs would perform. To our delight, they lasted close to three hours and resulted in limits for the night! Watching those traps come up filled to the brim is a feeling every angler knows well. It’s pure excitement and pride, knowing we made the right choice with our bait.
Why Lobster Fishing is a Must-Try
If you’ve never tried lobster fishing before, this is the perfect season to get out there! Not only is it a fantastic way to enjoy the great outdoors, but there’s also a strong sense of community among fellow anglers. Sharing tips, stories, and the thrill of the catch creates bonds that last beyond the season.
Tips for a Successful Trip
- Choose the Right Bait: As we learned, the right bait can make all the difference. Lobster logs were a game changer for us, so don’t hesitate to experiment with new options!
- Know Your Spots: Research local hotspots for lobsters. The more you know about where to drop your traps, the better your chances of success. Remember: structure is your best friend!
- Stay Patient and Persistent: Lobster fishing requires some patience. Don’t get discouraged if you don’t catch a limit right away. Keep trying different strategies and enjoy the experience.
- Bring the Right Gear: Make sure you have all the necessary gear—hoopnets, bait, gauge, lobster card, and safety equipment. Being well-prepared makes for a much smoother outing.
